It arrived with no warning at all, the forecaster who predicted it was overruled, and pushed a surge nearly twenty feet up Narragansett Bay into downtown Providence. Around 600 people died across New England. A hurricane barrier now closes across the river when the water rises.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
