What the hell? A tornado in my neighborhood?! O_O;

There was a pretty bad thunderstorm here overnight and at the time, I figured it was worse than usual but nothing too out of the ordinary. Turns out I was completely wrong:

Our street seems okay but my father saw a fallen tree on the next block and I’ve heard about other downed trees and damaged cars around the neighborhood as well.


And completely unrelated but I crocheted a fuzzy scarf with some of the yarn I bought on Sunday. It’s just rows of single crochet so it was quick to do. I used 1 strand of Fun Fur in Sapphire and 1 of Boa in Parrot; the separate shades are on the right and I like how they look together in the scarf with the different colors and lengths of fur. Won’t actually need a scarf for months but it’ll be cozy for winter!

I'm glad there wasn't any severe damage!

What a pretty scarf ♥ The colors look so nice together and the textures looks so soft/cozy.

Thanks. :-)

We were lucky and our street was okay but I did hear there were lots of trees down and other damage around here.

Oh my! @___@ Glad you and your family are okay! I'd better try to find out if my other NY friends are alright.

And that scarf looks so lovely and soft! X3 The colors blend nicely.

Thanks. :-)

The tornado thing was completely unexpected. Before I fell asleep, I figured we were just having a bad thunderstorm since we shouldn't be getting tornados around here. o_o;

From the boards about the picnic.

An addendum:


For anyone who has trouble with getting there, I will be in Penn Station from 12:00pm-1:00pm waiting for people to escort to the picnic. I recommend you stock up on your metrocards, phone numbers, (mine's 347 276 2357) and whatever else you plan to bring before then (soda, water, chilled fruit drinks are always welcome).
