Stumbled across these photos of the 1936 Hartford flood while looking for something else.
High quality photos.

Amazing to me that there's not that much flooding. Willing to bet most places in SNE are at or nearing all-time 365 day rainfall totals. I suppose if you spread it out It tempers it somewhat.
