Hail, Hail to...Brooklyn?

You guys, I don't know what the hell is going on. Brooklyn has been having some crazy biblical weather as of late. I blame the Mister, as it seems New York hates him for some reason. Since May when he arrived, he's had only one out of probably 14 uninterrupted flights, there's been two tornado's (hello, NY doesn't HAVE tornados), and now, hail! Yes, you read that correctly. Last night Brooklyn had a hail storm! You can read all about it in the New York Times here. We live in Park Slope, so basically these pictures and video are our neighborhood. Can you believe it? I tried to take some pictures of my own to prove how nuts things were, but images were hard to capture from our apartment. Suffice it to say we had a lake on our street, cars were submerged, the drains were overflowing, and we were just waiting for a hydroplaning car or cab to crash into other cars or a building. Thankfully we weren't witness to any actual accidents, but it sure was interesting looking out the windows. I've never been through anything like that before. If you zoom in on the picture of our balcony below, you can even see the hail. Nonsense!
