For a lot of people, last night's derecho was not muy malo. In New York City, it didn't seem all that different from a regular thunderstorm, except that people on Twitter were way more excited about it.

And outside of New York City, in case anyone cares, some 300,000 homes in New York state, Pennsylvania and Ohio have already lost power and at least 840 flights have been grounded. Earlier this afternoon, there were reports that a tornado touched down in Elmira, NY.
