Storyline of the movie:
„A storm system forms in the northern hemisphere develop, splitting into three superstorms above Canada, Scotland, and Siberia. The subzero temperatures of the superstorms' eyes cause flash freezing. Meanwhile, the weather becomes increasingly bad around the world, including several tornadoes which destroy Los Angeles and Hollywood.
In Manhattan, Sam (the son of Jack, an American paleoclimatologist), and his friends Brian, J.D., and Laura Chapman participate in an academic decathlon. The city begins to flood with rainfall, followed by an enormous storm surge, trapping Sam’s group in the New York Public Library.“ (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_After_Tomorrow)
The sequence of the picture:
When the flood wave hits Manhatten, Jack and his friends look for a save place. They arrive at the New York Public Library, but Laura went back to a car in the middle of the street (5th Ave) to find the passports of evacuated family. Sam sees the big flood wave and wants to help Laura.
