Drama queens. I seen bigger in a sink.
Hate to tell u but I don’t think tornados are that uncommon in the state of new York- not as common as in Texas or Carolina etc but sur we have had small tornados in Ireland
Still cool to get it on camera
It’s quite rare actually. I lived in New York for 5 yrs and never saw or heard of one .
i was in new your this time 2 years ago, and i was flying back to dublin on the 16th sep, and there was a tornado in nyc, had to drive through brooklyn and saw loads of fallen trees and stuff, so my flight was delayed 7 hours
