Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton-on-Hudson: our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
A reader recalls much of the waterfront closures--and some minor parking lot flooding--associated with Hurricane Ida a few years ago during a visit to her parents. She wondered if there was anything in the archives.
We have this:
Hurricane Ida struck the Hudson Valley in the early hours of September 2, 2021, after its remnants swept through the Northeast. The storm brought torrential rain overnight on September 1 into September 2, causing widespread flooding, power outages, and infrastructure damage across the region.
Although the village escaped most of the real damage from IDA, the Croton River remained even wilder than usual---much MUCH higher---and with white caps as well. Click on the photo BELOW.
Silver lake, Mayo's Landing, and the Echo Canoe Launch were closed through 9/6 due to flooding, etc.
