Okay, man give me a fully logical statement explaining how it's even reasonably possible for the complete side of a building being ripped off (multiple stories of that building without collapsing ) given what has come here. Which is NOT a hurricane and hasn't been since hitting the shore.

I don't know how lol. I saw it live on tv with fire trucks outside blocking off the block. Don't believe me if you don't want to. I can see why you don't but I wasn't hallucinating while watching TV

The worst flooding is in Hoboken that I've seen. Water to the top of cars.

The avenue c photo looks pretty legit which would be crazy and mean lower manhattan is getting hit HARD

Those definitely look real. I heard the battery park tunnel was sucking in water like a drunkard woman drinking wine through a straw. :laugh2:

News 7 (ABC-NYC) has never shown that image of the building missing the entire side of itself or even spoke of it.

This is the kind of stuff I didn't think I'd see happen to manhattan for another 20-30 yrs. with the sea level rising I can't even imagine what a storm like this would do to manhattan in 20-30 yrs

lol. Never seen a transformer take 20 seconds to blow. Genreally it's one grand shabang that takes about one second! :laugh2:

I can't even explain what that video shows. Generally a huge short that causes massive flashes light that would have been stopped by some sort of ... well fuse type setup.

About ten years ago in KC we had a massive ice storm and transformers were popping all over the place, That is exactly what they looked liked. It looks like the lens was overexposed making it look more dramatic than it probably was.

I have, at a power station in between Seguin and San Marcos on FM123. One line overloads the station, and the arcing between it blows the whole thing. You can smell the ozone and your hair will stand up on your arms a half mile away.

I was driving to school in San Marcos from Seguin, saw it arcing, and stopped to watch. Must've been back in 1994 or 1995.

The storm has almost completely died here where I'm at. (yay!) Odd, considering they say the storm is still intensifying. :confused:

So, we see these images of these transformers exploding, but they do not say if they are decepticons or autobots. :mad:
