Meanwhile, at Van Ness and Market...
Muni spokesman Judson True told us that the 90-odd minute, rain-induced shutdown of the city's rail system is over. But if you live near Van Ness station -- you're getting wet.
Because of flooding at that stop, trains are rolling right through without halting. True says Muni hopes to "clean out" at least one exit at that deluged station shortly, so passengers can disembark.
As reported elsewhere, the heavy rains wreaked havoc on riders' days. Looks like
Leonard the storm had the last laugh after all.
