NYC Storm Causes MASSIVE City Delays

Radar New York City August 8th 2007.jpg Today, Severe weather caused many New Yorkers to be late to work. Not to mention flooded apartments! The subways also had flooding issues with 34th st and 42nd street stations shut down. Apparently in Brooklyn, there is chatter of a tornado? We will need to confirm that but I am sure it was just very heavy winds. Power outages were reported across many areas as well. The National weather service did issue a Tornado warning however for SE NYC just before 6:30.

Update: confirmed F2 Tornado ( 1st ever in history) I was surprised..

Metro North and The Number 6 train weren't running at all.
Most trains below 42nd street were shutdown.. it was total pandemonium!

I heard about that storm today. Must have been a big one to get all that attention.

I love it, the air was so full of energy. thought maybe there would be a power surge today with the heat.
