Boarding During Isaias

  2. The host steps outside and immediately encounters strong wind, rough water, and worsening storm conditions.
  3. He notes that the strongest part of the storm is expected between around 12:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.

Rough Ferry Ride

  1. The ferry ride becomes increasingly intense, with howling wind, rough seas, and heavy spray soaking the host.

  3. He says he is soaked from head to toe and can barely see through his glasses.
  4. The host reflects that this is his first time taking the Staten Island Ferry during a tropical storm.

Docking At Staten Island

  1. As the ferry approaches Staten Island, the host describes the captain having a difficult docking job in the strong wind.
  2. The boat shifts left in the wind and appears to drift toward the rocks, but the host says he trusts the captain.
  3. The ferry docks successfully, and the host praises the captain for handling the conditions well.
  4. He exits into Staten Island, still noting strong wind and shaky footage without the stabilizer.

Return Ferry To Manhattan

  1. The host quickly changes boats and boards the Andrew J. Barberi for the return trip to Manhattan.
  2. He decides to stay inside for the return ride and look through open windows instead of standing outside.

  4. The host describes the ride as surreal but says he feels calm and trusts the crew.

Storm Intensifies Inside The Ferry

  3. The Statue of Liberty is barely visible through rain, foggy windows, and poor visibility.
  4. The host compares the ferry sounds to a haunted ship because of the wind and slamming doors.

Service Suspension And Manhattan Arrival
