Hopefully it was a small tornado. I saw one form at treetop level above me one year, and I think the same one (or cousin) took out a single family house in Ewing NJ a few minutes later. Three people were in the house, fortunately — Divine Providence — iirc, they were all going upstairs to bed and the central stairwell and chimney was all that survived. The house walls and roof literally blew outwards, and they were left unhurt on the stairs under the stars.
Fox News reports a tornado watch for NYC. Also now 2 million people without power.
Action news is saying that they touch down and go back up.They are doing street by street coverage on this.Things have settled down with that part.Tornado watch until 5 AM in a large area including us.
