40 Homes Damaged in WORST Tornado in NYC's recorded history..



Funny, the headline just talks about the rain 'crippling NY's transit system'...
 
The last tornado in NYC was in 1899 !  I'd say this is a pretty rare event. 
Are we having Earth Changes, or what..

Tornadoes have hit New York City before, but not often. The National Weather Service had records of at least five, plus sketchy detail on the last reported tornado sighting in Brooklyn, in 1889. None was as strong as Wednesday's twister, which had winds as high as 135 mph.
 
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event," said Jeffrey Tongue, a Weather Service meteorologist.
 
A woman on Staten Island died when a car got stuck in an underpass and another car came along and hit hers, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said. A handful of people were injured, Bloomberg said.
 
Lanie Mastellone, who lives in Brooklyn's Bay Ridge neighborhood, awoke as her roof was coming off. Before escaping, she ran to get her late husband's wedding ring.
"It happened so quick. Maybe he was watching over me," Mastellone said.
