A tornado hit my neighborhood on Tuesday out of fuckin nowhere! It was an insane storm that lasted barely 10 minutes. The hail was coming down and blowing so hard it sounded like millions of rocks were being thrown at the window. Amazingly I actually didn't lose power when so many other people did. I lost cable though and my street was completely blocked off. It was like ground zero. There were 15 of us just walking around the street at 7am taking pics. My street is very busy and it was weird because no cars were driving on the road and it was so quiet like we were the only ones who survived. I was actually enjoying that solitude lol Anyway here are some pics......... This is the front of my building. Over by the stairs, the metal railings broke in 2 or 3 places and was pulled out of the ground A tree giving a powerline the world's strongest slam A little bit down the block a tree swantoned those cars and became one of the few reasons to shut the road down. The powerlines on the ground in the pic before didn't help either This was across the street from my building And this is the front of the building next door

LOL! Champ, the world can be falling apart and ending before your very eyes and you'd be stood there thinking, "Holy shit! That office building just toppled and and gave that pre-school and Warrior Splash!", "Oh no! Now the vehicles have turned heel on the humans and are giving them swantons, SSP's and 450 splashes!".
Your shadow looks like an eye in the last picture.
That is some impressive damage though. God must really hate Yonkers!

God laid some heavy shit on Yonkers for sure.
I didn't even notice my shadow until you pointed it out
But yeah, it's so funny how wrestling fans can take almost any situation and wrestlingize it

Yonkers got fired from New York and joined the mid-west. We had tornados like every day in June and after the first three you stop even trying to get to safety.

They're still cleaning up trees over here. The weirdest thing is everyone lost all power and I didn't. i just lost cable. i know I mentioned that but we were literally the only building on this block I recall not losing power. Even the complex connected next to us that I took a pic of lost their power. That was a very fluke thing for me. So I also no sold power damage

I bet Yonkers is going to take a look at putting your power lines underground now. Once they do that its almost a miracle to lose your power.

Yeah when powerlines are actually sitting in the street with trees on top of them, that's really dangerous
