You never think it will happen so far up the East Coast, but it did...a tornado! The tornado was an F0-F1 [on the Fujita Scale] (depending on the news networks), hit outside of Islip Terrace, NY on Long Island dated, July 18th, 2007 due to severe thunderstorms in the area. Bet that surprised everybody!
Power was out for over 50,000 customers in the Nassau and Suffolk areas. I was checking this out on the CBS-early morning news, while I was up earlier than usual.
I decided to check if this was "news worthy" to many in the area and was pleasantly surprised that this did make some of the major papers last week along with several online news networks including USA Today, and The NY Times. From what I heard and read, there was damage and no injuries, which is always a good thing!
Like the forecasters from The Weather Channel have said, "tornado's can show up anywhere"!
