Tornado in Brooklyn

Some of you may have seen in the news earlier this week that there was a tornado in Brooklyn, NY. It is the first since they started to keep official records in 1950 and anaecdotedly the first since 1889.

It first made landfall in Brooklyn just a few blocks from where I live (about 1/2 mile) and did some serious damage just one block away from my house. Fortunately all is well in the NY OA Trader household. You can read more about it here.

Here is a picture of some nearby damage. Click on the thumbnail for a larger picture.
