Don't know about any airline evacs, but the NYC mayor just ordered the mandatory evacuation of all residents in flood zone 'A' (about a half million people). Both JFK and LGA are in zone 'B' and would be the next to get evacuated. For those who don't know, LGA is all built on landfill....it used to be Flushing bay. The only part of it that wasn't built into the sea is where the MAT is located. The original shoreline is where the Grand Central Parkway is now. Those huge pumps that you see along the side of rwy13/31 keep rainwater and seawater out of the airfield. Even worse off will be JFK which is built on an inland estuary and faces the incoming storm surge. The 12 inches of rain won't help either

The real problem for New York is that the Mayor also ordered the closing of the public transportation system tomorrow at noon. Anyone who knows New York knows that the city grinds to a halt without the subway and busses. I would venture to say that the overwhelming majority of the airport workers use the system and will not show for work tomorrow if it's not running. The bridges in and out of the city will shut donw when the wind reaches 50kts.
