RTS CNG Command Posted October 29, 2012 Share #126 Posted October 29, 2012 Just saw a live clip of the crane dangling on CBS 2 right now. (The accident is located at West 57th Street and 6 1/2 Avenue.) That shot scared the royal shit out of me. 57th Street and 5th and 8th Avenues are cleared of traffic. According to CBS 2 News's Marcia Kramer, the crane itself has had a troubled history over the past year. And wind is gusting right by my window. Quiet a bit, and then HUGE bursts of wind! I swore, one gust traveled about 80 miles per hour at one point earlier today. EDIT: In case anyone's curious, here's the crane: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttcsubwayfan Posted October 29, 2012 Share #128 Posted October 29, 2012 Yet again another edit: What if Gangnam Style was actually just one big rain dance, and we bought this hurricane on ourselves? Is it bad that I laughed at this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion VII 4 Life Posted October 29, 2012 Share #136 Posted October 29, 2012 Looks like we're gonna get up early tomorrow and go up to Manhattan via the Lincoln since they didn't announce it is closing. Hope they don't make a late night announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
