Surreal pics show trucks sinking into NYC streets as monster heat wave seems to ‘melt' pavement
New York streets seem to be buckling under the intense heat smothering the city with dramatic photos showing a bus broken through a Long Island parking garage — and a firetruck sinking into a Manhattan street as record-setting tempts broil the Big Apple. The first incident happened in North New Hyde Park Tuesday afternoon — where temps topped around 99 degrees Fahrenheit — as a bus turned onto the exposed top level of a parking garage, but then plunged through the roadway as the ground opened beneath it. 'With everything going on I thought Iran was here,' said garage attendant Ricky Cody, who heard a loud bang as the bus' rear end sank into the broken blacktop. 4 A large bus broke through the pavement at a parking garage in North New Hyde Park during the heat wave Tuesday Peter Gerber 'We got calls going 'Oh my god, oh my god! What's going on?'' he said. 'You don't really know. You hear a loud bang, and you don't expect something like that to happen when the whole day cars are coming in no problem.' The bus was left lodged in the parking lot with its front end jutting up into the air, dramatic photos show, but no passengers were on board during the accident and the driver was able to exit safely. Then in downtown Manhattan Wednesday — where temps peaked around 96 degrees Fahrenheit — a firetruck became stuck in the ground after the asphalt appeared to turn to quicksand around one of its wheels. The mired engine was cordoned off as bemused — and sweating — passersby looked on, before eventually being towed out. 4 The bus was left with its rear end lodged in the ground and its nose standing on end. Nobody was hurt in the incident Peter Gerber But it's a sight that's not unheard of in summer months, according to Jim McGowan, whose nearly 100-year old company John McGowan & Sons paved the parking lots at the Mets' Citi Field. 'On a hot day things can become so soft and malleable where a vehicle can sink into the asphalt. It can happen,' McGowan told The Post, explaining that blacktop can reach up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit under the sun on a particularly hot day. 'It's just because of the direct sunlight and the heat of the day,' he said, adding that it's likely there were already faults or cavities beneath the roadways where the vehicles broke through — and that the weight of a vehicle on top of the softened pavement became too much. 'It could have been a void under the asphalt that was there, and with the heat the asphalt became soft and malleable, and it just sank right through that section, and it took the hot temperature and the sun,' McGowan said. 4 A firetruck was left stuck in the ground in Manhattan on Wednesday. The city said it was caused by a sink hole Peter Gerber 4 Experts say intense heat can weaken the pavement overtop faults like sink holes, sometimes leaving cars stuck Peter Gerber Incidents of pavement failing under heat are fairly rare, McGowan said, but that this week alone he's read about several incidents across the country where similar things have happened. From the Dakotas to Nebraska, Colorado and Missouri, roadways have been splitting, buckling and breaking as an intense heat dome bakes the country, images from KYFR TV show. The East Coast has been hit particularly hard by the heat, with temps persisting in the high 90s but cracking the 100 degree mark in places like New Jersey and JFK International Airport. New York City's Department of Transportation confirmed the firetruck incident was the result of a sinkhole.

Rain soaks NYC Father's Day — and that's just the beginning
Dads across the Big Apple braved a rainy, gray Father's Day — as forecasters warn the gloomy stretch is only getting started. 'Monday through Wednesday is going to stay overcast, with highs mostly in the 60s and low 70s,' FOX Weather meteorologist Cody Braud told The Post on Sunday. 'It's just gonna be another kind of similar stretch of days like today, where it's kind of gloomy outside, but there may also be some pockets of extremely light rain,' Braud said. Advertisement Then the weather will take a turn for the worse Thursday evening. 3 Coney Island's attractions still lure dads and their families despite the gloomy weather Sunday. Gregory P. Mango 'There's actually a chance of severe storms on Thursday,' Baud said. 'There's gonna be a cold front pushing in from the west. Advertisement 'We could see some storms later in the afternoon, possibly even once the sun goes down, bringing the threat of damaging winds,' he added. Despite Sunday's dismal skies, several determined dads hit the sights from Citi Field to Coney Island to make the most of their rain-soaked afternoon with the family. At Citi Field in Queens, 41-year-old Michael Handell wouldn't let the rain ruin his Father's Day and his daughter's first-ever Mets game. 'The weather's been terrible,' said Handell, a Washington Heights native who runs a kids' sports program. 'It seems to rain on the weekends all the time, like every weekend there seems to be rain.' Advertisement But his daughters, Libby, 6, and Molly, 3, were still 'excited' despite the weather while clad in their colorful rain coats. 'It's what I want to do on Father's Day,' Handell said. 'It's a great gift.' 3 Families also braved the unseasonable weather at the Mets' City Field stadium in Queens. Michael Nagle On Coney Island in Brooklyn, Dan Lutz, 55, came in from Sayville, LI, with his son Jason, 12, for a new Father's Day tradition of riding the amusement park's famed Cyclone rollercoaster. Advertisement 'We would have gone more times but had to stop after three times because of the rain hitting you in the face, it's a little rough,' he said. Sebastian Green, a 40-year-old filmmaker from Astoria, Queens, also was at Luna Park and watched his sons, ages 7 and 4, play in the arcade. 'This is a great Father's Day!' Green said. 'It's important to teach them that the rain doesn't stop you from having a good time.' 3 'It's important to teach them that the rain doesn't stop you from having a good time,' Sebastian Green said as he enjoyed the day with his sons, 7 and 4, in Luna Park on Coney Island. Gregory P. Mango But some locals were fazed by the gloom. 'This whole weekend's a washout! This kind of cold, wet weather destroys the business,' grumbled a man named Denny, 70, who was slinging candy apples and cotton candy at Lunatic Ice Cream. 'You get nothing, maybe 10% of what's normal on a weekend,' he said of customers. 'It's only tourists. Who's going to want to spend their Father's Day walking around in this?' Advertisement But after the cold, rainy stretch this week, New Yorkers can expect a pivot to more summer-like temperatures. Sunny skies and hot temps reaching the 90s are expected toward the tail end of the week, Braud said.
