(TheBlaze/AP) — Much of New York was plunged into darkness Monday by a superstorm that overflowed the city’s historic waterfront, flooded the financial district and subway tunnels and cut power to nearly a million people.

The city had shut its mass transit system, schools, the stock exchange and Broadway and ordered hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers to leave home to get out of the way of the superstorm Sandy as it zeroed in on the nation’s largest city.

Residents spent much of the day trying to salvage normal routines, jogging and snapping pictures of the water while officials warned the worst of the storm had not hit.

By evening, a record 13-foot storm surge was threatening Manhattan’s southern tip, howling winds had sent a crane hanging from a high-rise, and utilities deliberately darkened part of downtown Manhattan to avoid storm damage.

Water lapped over the seawall in Battery Park City, flooding rail yards, subway tracks, tunnels and roads. Rescue workers floated bright orange rafts down flooded downtown streets, while police officers rolled slowly down the street with loudspeakers telling people to go home.

Here are some of the phenomenal photos that have emerged so far:

“Now it’s really turning into something,” said Brian Damianakes, taking shelter in an ATM vestibule and watching a trash can blow down the street in Battery Park.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Monday night that the surge was expected to recede by midnight, after exceeding an original expectation of 11 feet.

“The worst of the weather has come,” he said. He said New Yorkers were inundating the 911 system and getting stranded in cars, and urged people to stay put until the storm passed.

“You have to stay wherever you are. Let me repeat that. You have to stay wherever you are,” he said.

Shortly after the massive storm made landfall in southern New Jersey, Consolidated Edison cut power deliberately to about 6,500 customers in downtown Manhattan to avert further damage. Then, huge swaths of the city went dark, losing power to 250,000 customers in Manhattan, Con Ed spokesman Chris Olert said.

New York University’s hospital lost backup power, Bloomberg said.

Another 1 million customers lost power earlier Monday in New York City, the northern suburbs and coastal Long Island, where floodwaters swamped cars, downed trees and put neighborhoods under water.

The storm had only killed one New York City resident by Monday night, a man who died when a tree fell on his home in the Flushing section of Queens.

The rains and howling winds, some believed to reach more than 95 mph, left a crane hanging off a luxury high-rise in midtown Manhattan, causing the evacuation of hundreds from a posh hotel and other buildings. Inspectors were climbing 74 flights of stairs to examine the crane hanging from the $1.5 billion.

Here are some additional photos, some of which, as Business Insider notes, have not been confirmed as authentic at this point:

Manhattan deals with superstorm Sandy (Business Insider)

The facade of a four-story Manhattan building in the Chelsea neighborhood crumbled and collapsed suddenly, leaving the lights, couches, cabinets and desks inside visible from the street. No one was hurt, although some of the falling debris hit a car.

On coastal Long Island, floodwaters swamped cars, downed trees and put neighborhoods under water as beachfronts and fishing villages bore the brunt of the storm. A police car was lost rescuing 14 people from the popular resort Fire Island.

The city shut all three of its airports, its subways, schools, stock exchanges, Broadway theaters and closed several bridges and tunnels throughout the day as the weather worsened.

On Long Island, floodwaters had begun to deluge some low-lying towns and nearly 150,000 customers had lost power. Cars floated along the streets of Long Beach and flooding consumed several blocks south of the bay, residents said.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo, holding a news conference on Long Island where the lights flickered and his mike went in and out, said most of the National Guards deployed to the New York City area would go to Long Island.

“Long Island has become more and more vulnerable and the primary area of our concentration,” he said.

The center the storm, a combination of Sandy, a wintry system from the West and cold air streaming from the Arctic, threatened to knock out the underground network of power, phone and high-speed Internet lines that are the lifeblood of America’s financial capital.

    What you do not see are the reports of the out of control crime. As Trilo pointed out, they mock those who prepare. My guess is the typical city dweller is not remotely prepared, food, water and “GASP”, self protection. Maybe people can call for help with their Obama phone.

      Witness the comments of former SCOTUS justice John Paul Stevens:

      “One thing that I thought about from time to time is that maybe you have some kind of constitutional right to have a cell phone with a predialed 911 number at your bedside, and that might provide you with a little better protection than a gun, which you’re not used to using.â€

      You are so right. I live right in Brooklyn (we are here right now) and we were very lucky. No problems. The people here don’t prepare at all. All they buy is beer, chips and liquor. If this really went downhill this area would fall into anarchy real fast. Heck, people loot on a normal Monday night so I can only imagine how crazy it would get without power and police control.

INEX is also making a good point about preparation and things that matter and don’t matter when adversity does hit. Keep being bitter if you want and continue to choke on your own attitude. I also find it funny that you “suppose” and then don’t even catch on that they are using their “powers of perception” to mock your supposition.

      I live in the Pacific Northwest. We’re used to 50 to 80 mph winds, days and even weeks of monsoon-like rains (only a lot colder), days with no power and highways blocked by downed trees so there’s no way to go anywhere. Luckily, people here are proud of their self-reliance, yet always willing to help a neighbor and we DO get, keep and stay prepared.

      Along with you, I hope people stay safe and maybe even reach out to help one another through this. Not to get political, but maybe they can start healing some of the divisions that have been caused. God’s blessing on those affected by this storm.

      Now, if hey would actually scrap them, instead of auctioning them off and shipping them to other states to be sold at auctions, which is illegal, but is still done. Beware of buying a used car, especially a few weeks to a few months after a disaster. These cars should be reported as scrap and have a scrap title on them, but it doesn’t always happen.

      Your collective is not my collective. God is not turning His back on us, “we” (the other people?) are turning their backs on Him. “WE” (those that believe) are in no danger from Him unless one chooses to follow and remain integrated with the “we” (non-followers). He said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you”, hang in there brothers and sisters.

      That’s too funny. There are 191 countries and over 7 billion people. There are zillions of planets and life forms. But the only thing in the whole universe that God gives a rat’s behind about is America? Such a belief is insane.

    Everything is fine New York –

    Bloomberg has saved you from the 17 ounce Dr Pepper…

    However, putting energy into cleaning up the city in snowstorms, or trash pick up, or not preparing NY for a slow motion storm that arrived after a week of notice – those are not his focus points. But rest assured, Bloomberg is high and dry – dining well with a 2 Litre bottle of Orange Fanta at his side, wearing mink slippers and a rich man’s house robe – waiting out the weather in comfort with an annoying press conference every so often…

    Night, night…

      And he’s also ensured that you don’t have rights when you’re in the city. Another reason I won’t go anywhere near it.

    Bloomberg is trying to outlaw large quantities of rain.

      Absolutely ridiculous. Its a storm not a mythical figure throwing a tantrum because some of the people aren’t following his rules ( which include things like “Deuteronomy 25:11-12
      If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity.”)

      Thank goodness for modern science. By giving a weeks notice, Gods plan of death was greatly diminished. The almighty was thwarted by the mighty Al Roker.

    Just when you think NYC couldn’t possibly get any worse it’s flooded. Good to not be anywhere near there.
