\n New Yorkers seeking shelter from Tropical Storm Fay may be out of luck in the city\u2019s subway system.<\/p>\n

Leaks of many shapes and sizes sprung up on subway platforms, track and mezzanines across the city Friday afternoon, according to video.<\/p>\n

On the mezzanine at Times Square station, The Post spotted an MTA worker clearing out water from the floor as a steady stream continued to drip from the ceiling.\u00a0 At Herald Square, a steady stream came down on the platform, soaking a nearby bench.<\/p>\n

Waterfalls also streamed onto the tracks at the Morgan Avenue L train station in Brooklyn, according to other video posted to Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And at Court Square in Queens, the ceiling sprung a massive leak onto the Manhattan-bound E and M train platform at Court Square, video shows \u2014 mere feet from where an even bigger leak nearly killed someone last summer.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew water feature at Court Square,\u201d Twitter user @methodhorse posted along with the video, which shows a five-foot wide leak pouring out from the ceiling into massive puddles on the platform and tracks.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo water is coming into the station now. This was a clogged vent issue between the street and the station that is being addressed. A vacuum truck is en route,\u201d MTA rep Abbey Collins tweeted in reply to the video.<\/p>\n

Last July, a temporary wall along the exact same Court Square platform collapsed and unleashed a massive deluge that knocked a straphanger off his feet and nearly into an oncoming train.<\/p>\n

Transit officials pinned the mishap on the developer of the Skyline Tower above the station, who \u201cdid not have the<\/span>\u00a0proper pumping system in place\u00a0to<\/span>\u00a0act as\u00a0a<\/span> temporary drainage system.\u201d The deadly deluge sparked an investigation by state Attorney General<\/a> Letitia James.<\/p>\n

MTA spokesman Tim Minton said Friday\u2019s flooding at Court Square was unrelated to construction, and the fault of an overflowed city catch basin.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve mobilized our response crews\u2026 and we\u2019re ready to go, but if the city\u2019s catch-basins backup, dropping hundreds of thousands gallons of water into the subway system, all we can do is mop it up,\u201d Minton said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
