WHERE'S MECHAGODZILLA WHEN YOU NEED HIM? Based on a comparison of video making the rounds of last night's "Brooklyn Tornado" and prior footage, I have come to the inescapable conclusion that Brooklyn was apparently attacked by a giant monster last night.

    It was crazy! Our neighborhood didn't get the damage that Park Slope did, but the sky did turn a greenish hue and it got apocalyptically black before the hail, rain and wind started. My cats went nuts. Maybe this is the beginning of the Cloverfield incident.

  2. I was stuck in it!  I'm on the Greenpoint/Williamsburg border and was outside in GP at the time.  Had to brace myself up against a building to avoid being swept away- no joke!!  Huge hail came down, rain was moving horizontally, flash floods, etc. 

    My dad was stuck on the LIE for 3+ hours and I ended up bringing my cousin home to LI from BK.

  3. Against the two guys in the video, I was rooting for the tornado.

    The same thing happened to me, KR- few others and I were hanging to the wall of a building until we could safely cross the street to the subway. When I finally made it to the subway platform, totally drenched, it lead to one of the more random subway pick-up lines I've ever heard- guy on the platform looked at me and said, "Baby, a flower like you don't need more water." Maybe it was because we were so cold and tired, and the situation was so ridiculous, but me and the soaked people that I ran over to the train with laughed hysterically at this.

    Do people really talk like that? I don't think I've heard anyone call someone else "Bro" nonironically in years.

    I'm so sorry those guys weren't single back in my dating days. We could have had so many meaningful conversations.

    Must have been a logjam at the patent office the next day with bands trying to trademark the name "Brooklyn Tornado".
