OPEN POST: HAIL TO THE CHIEF

Ok, so maybe this isn't quite as bro-tastic as the great Tornado of 2010 vid, but it's still pretty good. Be patient through the dark black shit in the beginning..the hail does make an impressive appearance.

I don't know about you btchz, but i SERIOUSLY thought the world was coming to an end last night. When this hail storm shit first started, I thought someone was up on our roof throwing crap down into the courtyard of our building. Oliver, who doesn't give a racccoon's ass about thunder and/or lightning, was looking at me positively panic stricken. And Greg! Poor Greg got stuck IN THE BELLY OF THE STORM and was camped out under the awning at the former Blockbuster (now Toys-R-Us) on Flatbush. When he returned home, he srsly looked as if he had swung by the pool at Berkeley Carroll on the way home from the sub, and just dove in with all his clothes on. Dude was W-E-T.

Here's some vid of flooding in Park Slope from the City Room Blog.

So where were you? Did you think you were going to die? What do you think is coming next? An earthquake? A Tsunami?? (Never say never!).

Tell us what's on your mind...even if its non-hail storm, tornado or bedbug related.

BREAKING: HAIL TO THE NO!

ARE YOU ALL STILL ALIVE????

I'M NOT EVEN SURE I AM!

What in the mother fuck was that shit?? I'll tell you what:  A HAIL STORM JUST GOT DROPPED RIGHT ON OUR FUCKING FACES.

Tornadoes, hail, Frogs, boils, raccoons: These are the 12 10 plagues unfolding right in front of our eyes!? Aren't they??

After a beautiful, mild early Fall day in NYC, the world seemingly almost came to an tonight. Like for realz. A small sampling from the Park Slope Twitterati on tonight's totally bizarro Hail storm:

Hope you're all not dead!

EDIT from Meredith, bogarting Erica's post: Here's the WTF scene on my back patio. That used to be my fucking patio umbrella.

I Survived The BK Tornado, And All I Got Was This Stinkin T-Shirt

Less than 24 hours, and we've already got a commemorative t-shirt. That's right, btchz: get em while they're hot. You can even choose diff color shirts, styles, etc. And no, we were not the soon-to-be rich motherfuckers who came up with this shit.

Also, you should know that that insanity last night WAS, indeed, a ginuwine tornado after all. So fuck anyone out there who was doubting us: we *did* have a tornado, and it *did* hit Park Slope.

BOOYAH.

The Great Tornado (or possibly "micro touchdown") of 2010. The Day After.

What are the chances that this car was actually parked here when the whatever-it-was blitzed through Park Slope last evening?

Nothing can surpass the unintended genius of the "holy shit, dude" video (which I notice has gone viral) and I'm feeling a little been there/done that about our whole tornado, having listened to my PIC's retelling about 25 times at 321 drop off this morning.

So what else is new?

HOLY FUCKING SHIT: #BKTORNADO VID

I'm not sure which is more riveting: the footage of the MOTEHRFUCKCING TORNADO that hit BK last night, or the guys screaming like little girls in this vid. Either way, I just watched this 11 times.
