OHweather Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I’d be pretty surprised if that didn’t produce a tornado. Rather unexpected too, but enough of a low level jet to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathermedic Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Whitestone area of Queens also has numerous trees and wires down. Possibly an EF-0 or EF-1 with the damage reports coming in so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag3 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Definite weak tornado 6 blocks from me. 3rd Avenue area of Whitestone, Queens. Most damage confined right along the water. Trees snapped and twisted in a park there and throughout that neighborhood. Various debris scattered everywhere as well. I took some bad pictures but this site makes it impossible to upload.

Juliancolton Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 How I long to open the windows and fall asleep to the sound of the gentle rain and rolling thunder.

Rock888 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 That makes sense it was very localized on radar right along the coast. Looks like treemont section of Bx took a direct hit from that cell too. Wonder if anything else will fire up tonight or we’re done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravity Wave Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Had about half an hour of heavy rain here, don't think there was much in the way of wind. Very impressive radar signature on that cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cfa Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Looking past the general public’s (and even the wx community’s) “shock” about a tornado warning/touchdown in NYC, you’ll see the city has had quite a few tornado touchdowns in recent years, probably more than most major cities outside of the Plains/Midwest. 08/08/07 - EF2 - Brooklyn 07/25/10 - EF1 - The Bronx 09/16/10 - EF0 - Brooklyn 09/16/10 - EF1 - Queens 08/28/11 - EF0 - Queens (Hurricane Irene) 09/08/12 - EF0 - Queens 09/08/12 - EF1 - Brooklyn 08/02/18 - EF? - Queens I’d add the 09/16/10 Macroburst as an honorable mention, that thing was basically a miles-wide borderline EF2/EF3 wedge tornado.
