But a tropical storm warning still continues for New York City, according to the National Weather Service. As Hurricane Irene departs, maximum winds are still forecast to be in the 30-40 mile-per-hour range, with gusts up to 55 mph through late afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.

There were no deaths or serious injuries in the storm, according to Bloomberg. The MTA is beginning to restore service, starting with buses first while the subway lines are assessed.
However, it will take eight hours to get all the trains, buses and rail service back on track, so expect delays.
Con Edison did not sever power to Lower Mahattan, as it warned.
