Nor'easter...



Last week Thursday, November 8th it was only around 6PM, and Brooklyn (Midwood - Sheepshead Bay) was coated with snow, and hail. Earlier that morning I was walking from school to my father's car, and I saw from the window's frosty from the rain. Clearly, it was hail when I stepped outside. I never ever walked around when hail was pouring down, but it did hurt and burn like hell! My finger less gloves didn't work, nor did my hoodie help me out either. Took me a good 20mins to cross the campus, to the parking lot. Very painful experience.

Brooklyn still is trying its best from recovering from Hurricane Sandy, half of Emmons avenue is shut down. I'll be taking more pictures tomorrow since I'll be in the area.

Hurricane Sandy aftermath...

...Everything at my house is pretty good, our basement was pretty much flooded during the Hurricane, but we were lucky enough to even have power that night so we pumped the basement all night long. We lost power 2 nights later for 3 hours, and cable/internet for a good 2 days. Still, my area was hit bad, and a lot of things were closed down. I can't imagine how my college must look like under water.
"Roll 'N' Roaster", located on Emmons Avenue off the corner of Nostrand Avenue was prepared for the Hurricane. They must of have been flooded as well, with the rest of the restaurants along the avenue.
