Tornado Watch

[Finn the Human]

There is going to be a tornado watch in new york, where i live. tornadoe is gonna be in about 1-1 1/2 hours. i wonder whats gonna happen.

A watch only means that the weather conditions are right for the possibility of a tornado - be thankful it's not a warning (imminent)! Where I live we've probably had at least a dozen tornado watches this year and nothing has ever really happened. Usually it just storms pretty badly, or if a tornado touches down it's been outside of the city. Just keep an eye open for weather updates, be safe, and try not to worry! :)

Yea it just started, for now just a HUGE storm. An elementary school across the street is full of water (playground).

Nothing big happened in the area where I live in NY. Of course, I'm inside my house while being oblivious to the outside world so......... :P

I've only heard some rain thus far.

Yea, storm left for us after 20 minutes, most damage happened more west of the states.

It's supposed to go through Massachusetts, but fortunately, not my part. Tornadoes absolutely terrify me--wind is bad enough! When the hurricane was coming up last year, I was terrified, and I got EXTRA prepared. I was ready to go to the basement and play Munchkin...but the winds were about 40 MPH by the time it got here.

I had a Flash Flood Watch But We didn't get any close to Flooding good thing because we are right near a River

I feel like we get Tornado watches constantly and the majority of the time nothing ever comes of them. We've had quite a few storms lately though.

I saw a tornado touch down once when I was a kid, scared the crap outta me and it took my parents 2 hours to convince me to come out of our basement, which at the time was still just a big hole under our house, no concrete yet :P I've also seen a water spout, very small and very short lived, but still kinda neat..

I had the same thing, except I didn't see a tornado xD I was just convinced one was going to hit. Luckily I live in an area that doesn't get extreme weather at all. Worst was a snowstorm in 2008 that dumped about 4 metres of snow onto us over a weekend.
