Tristate area hit by tornado

[yisman]

Unreal devastation in Queens.

Trees down everywhere, blocking streets.

Amazingly enough, the Mets managed to start only about 10 minutes late.

At least they didn't have to evacuate the 10 fans in attendance!

Mets O8 let's hope it gets worse if no scores are put on the board.

Post pictures of the tornado damage. I want to see fallen and uprooted trees, crushed cars, damaged houses.

and more importantly, stay safe people!

I bet whatever you like you can't even make it here

no buses running, some of the trains not running, can't drive on the streets

you'd have to walk

My neighborhood looks like it got targeted by a mad tree bomber
