Did you know a tornado passed over Brooklyn this morning? Passed very close to where I live. I wouldn't have known except my wife watches the weather channel for about an hour every morning.

At 6:30 AM the weather channel reported:

6:30 AM the tornado was passing over Bay Ridge

6:40 AM the tornado would pass over Flatbush and Crown Heights

7 AM predicted to pass over JFK...(I now write at 6:55 AM)

Sometime between 6:30 and 6:40 it must have passed right by my apartment. Rain was heavy (even our building's sump pumps couldn't hold back all the water) and it was quite dark. No other indication of a tornado as far as we could tell. They tell you to get in a basement...well, I LIVE in a basement!
