NOT GET TO. CHRISTINA FAN, CBS2 NEWS. >>> WE WANT TO GET BACK TO LONNIE QUINN NOW BECAUSE WE HAVE WORD OF MORE WARNINGS THAT HAVE JUST BEEN ISSUED. LONNIE, WHAT DO WE HAVE? >> LOOK, PHONES ARE GOING OFF. GUYS, AS OF RIGHT NOW, HERE IS YOUR PICTURE LOOKING OUT INTO NEW YORK CITY. WE HAVE A TORNADO WARNING. IF I WAS TO CATCH A LIGHTNING BOLT FLASH, I WANT YOU TO KNOW I MISSED IT JUST THEN. THE SKY IS KIND OF GREEN. LOOK WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH. HERE IS THE CELL. SEE THAT BLUE? INCREDIBLY HEAVY RAIN. THE EMERGENCY ALERT SERVICE IS TELLING US. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE, IT IS

MANHATTAN, THE BRONX, WESTCHESTER UNTIL 9:30. TAKE SHELTER RIGHT NOW. THIS HAS GOT TWIST IN THE ATMOSPHERE. THAT BLUE COLOR SHOWS YOU HAIL. HAIL IS MADE BY AIR RUSHING UP WITH AIR RUSHES UP VERY QUICKLY, IT COMES DOWN VERY QUICKLY. IT HITS IS GROUND, SPREADS OUT. YOU GET SOME TWISTS. THIS IS A PROBLEM. AND I WANT YOU TO BE SAFE OUT THERE. IF YOU ARE IN MANHATTAN, IN THE BRONX, IN SOUTHERN WESTCHESTER COUNTY. THIS IS NOT A LONG TIME, BUT YOU HAVE TO GO TO THE BASEMENT. YOU GO TO AN INTERIOR ROOM. SOMETHING WITHOUT WINDOWS. 9:12.

ONE MORE TIME, WE ARE WATCHING THIS BLUE SHADED AREA. HEAVIEST OF ALL, THIS IS ABOUT THE WORST YOU WILL GET. YOU COULD SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT THIS, FOR A GOOD THREE HOURS. I'M NOT TALKING THE SAME CELL, BUT POPPING UP LIKE THIS. IT WILL BE A LONG NIGHT, GANG. MOUNT VERNON, 9:19. NEW ROCHELLE, 9:26. WHITE PLAINS, 9:30. 9:41, PORT CHESTER. THE THING ABOUT A TORNADO WARNING, THEY ARE SHORT LIVED. THIS ONE IS IN EFFECT FOR ABOUT 15, 18 MINUTES OR SO. WE WILL LET YOU KNOW IF IT GETS EXTENDED BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THIS CELL BOUNCE ALL

AROUND. WHEN WE WATCH, LET ME GET MY PHONE TO SOMEBODY. WHEN YOU WATCH A TORNADO COME THROUGH AN AREA, WE WATCHED THIS ONE AROUND BURLINGTON COUNTY. IT IS GOING JUST LIKE THIS. THAT YOU CAN SEE THE TRACK OF THE STORMS AS THEY ARE MOVING. THAT HAS BEEN THE TRACK THAT THIS TORNADO HAS POPPED DOWN, POPPED DOWN, IT WILL CONTINUE TO DO JUST THAT. YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY, GANG. IT IS NOT A HURRICANE. IT IS NOT A TROPICAL STORM. IT IS A STORM, ONE HECK OF A PUNCH OUT THERE. AND WE WILL DEAL WITH THIS. LOOK WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH NOW. THE WORST OF IT, AND THERE IS MORE TO COME AS THIS TRAVELS

ALONG THIS PATH. WHAT IS IT DOING? IT IS PULLING IN SOME OF THIS ADDED ENERGY FROM THE OCEAN. AND, WE JUST SORT OF BLOW UP IN OUR AREA. I WAS TELLING YOU WHEN THIS DAY STARTED, I HAD A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS. AND IT IS COMING TOGETHER. THESE ARROWS SHOW YOU WE ARE GETTING A LITTLE BIT OF A PULL FROM THE OCEAN. WHEN YOU GET AIR MOVING LIKE THIS AND THAT, YOU CAN SEE HOW THAT WOULD TRIGGER THE ATMOSPHERE TO CAUSE A TORNADO. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE FEARFUL OF RIGHT NOW. WE KNOW, WE KNOW THERE IS ROTATION IN THE SKY. WHAT WE DON'T KNOW FOR SURE RIGHT NOW IS WHERE IT IS GOING TO COME BACK DOWN TO THE

SURFACE. BUT IT IS OUT THERE. AND THE PLACES WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT RIGHT NOW WOULD BE MANHATTAN. WESTCHESTER AGAIN. ANY OF THOSE COUNTIES, I URGE YOU AS THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAID, YOU DON'T MESS. YOU SEEK SHELTER RIGHT NOW. LOWEST LEVEL OF YOUR HOME. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A BASEMENT, YOU GET TO, WITH NO WINDOWS IF YOU CAN, STAY AWAY FROM WINDOWS. HUNKER DOWN, GUYS. 16 MINUTES. WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS. WE HAVE 16 MINUTES TO REALLY PLAY IT SAFE. GUYS, I WANT TO GO BACK TO YOU NOW. I WILL BE WATCHING THIS. THERE WILL BE MORE. THAT'S THE PROBLEM. THERE WILL BE MORE. SO STAY WITH US.

GUYS? >> LONNIE, A TORNADO WARNING IN MANHATTAN? I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE HEARD SUCH A THING. >> WE HAVE HAD THEM. IF YOU REMEMBER WHEN WE WERE BACK TO THE BROOKLYN TORNADO. WE HAD THE WARNING ISSUING FOR MANHATTAN. IT TOUCHED DOWN IN BROOKLYN A FEW YEARS BACK. A LOT OF TIMES OUR BUILDINGS WILL DISRUPT THE ROTATION. BUT, THEY CAN HAPPEN. THEY CAN HAPPEN. REMEMBER THAT BROOKLYN TORNADO, THE TYPE OF DAMAGE IT DID? ALL THE BUILDINGS WERE MADE OUT OF BRICK. WE WATCHED WALLS COME DOWN FROM THAT. THESE ARE NOT TO BE MESSED WITH. I THINK IT IS ONE OF THE MOST

SERIOUS THINGS THAT MOTHER NATURE PUTS OUT THERE, AND IT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW. WE WILL BE WITH YOU GUYS THROUGHOUT THIS NEWSCAST. I WILL PROBABLY BE BOUNCING BACK HERE EVERY FIVE MINUTES OR SO. BUT WE HAVE GOT TO BE ON TOP OF THIS. THE CONCERN IS, WHEN YOU SEE THIS BLUE COLOR RIGHT OVER MANHATTAN AND PUSHING UP INTO WESTCHESTER AND THE BRONX, EXTENDING OVER TOWARD BERGEN COUNTY. ANY OF THIS AREA HAS A POSSIBILITY. BUT WE USUALLY LOOK ON THIS SIDE. SO MANHATTAN, THE BRONX. YOU ARE CATCHING THE WORST OF THE WORST. ONCE THIS IS DONE, YOU ARE FINISHED FOR THE NIGHT. THERE COULD BE MORE AS WE

CONTINUE. SO GUYS, I'M HERE WITH YOU ALL NIGHT LONG. THIS IS WHAT WE ARE DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW. A LOT OF LIGHTNING STRIKES. ON TOP OF ALL THIS, IT IS A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM. RIGHT? I'M NOT TALKING JUST THE TWIST, BUT YOU HAVE A LOT OF LIGHTNING STRIKES. WE HAD A LIFE GUARD. ALL RIGHT, THEY ARE JUST TELLING ME NOW, THIS IS COMING IN WITH RAINFALL THAT IS COMING DOWN, YOU READY FOR THIS ONE? THREE INCHES PER HOUR. THAT IS A STRONGER RATE THAN WHAT WE HAD COMING DOWN WITH HENRI. AND KJ, YOU SAID TO ME, YOU ARE SEEING A BIT OF A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS AND HENRI.

>> IT JUST SEEMS LIKE SUCH AN ONSLAUGHT. IT IS COMING DOWN SO MUCH. >> IT WAS THREE DAYS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT HENRI. THIS WILL BE, GUYS, THIS IS GONE BY TOMORROW. IT IS GONE BY TOMORROW. RIGHT NOW WITH RAIN COMING DOWN, DO THE MATH. IF YOU GET TWO HOURS OF THAT, THINK ABOUT THAT. THAT IS HALF A FOOT OF RAIN. WE TYPICALLY PICK UP ABOUT 3.8 TO 4.5 INCHES FOR THE WHOLE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER. AND THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE AS OF RIGHT NOW. NOW, IF THIS LINE RIGHT HERE HOLDS ITSELF TOGETHER AND WE HAVE NO REASON TO BELIEVE IT MAY NOT. THE LINE WILL MAKE ITS WAY TO

MOUNT VERNON. CATCHING HEAVY RAIN. I'M SHOWING YOU WHEN IT WILL GET MORE INTENSE. HEMPSTEAD, 10:18. BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT. 11:02. I KNOW MY WIFE IS HUNKERED DOWN. WE HAVE BEEN SAYING ALL DAY LONG, THE WORST WAS GOING TO BE 5:00 P.M. TODAY. UNTIL ABOUT 5:00 A.M. IN THE MORNING. WELL, 5:00 P.M., HERE WE ARE. AT 9:17 AT NIGHT. I STILL THINK WE HAVE TO BE CONCERNED UNTIL ABOUT 5:00 A.M. IT MAY TAPER DOWN PRIOR TO THAT. BUT YOU COULD HAVE MORE ACTIVITY. GUYS, THAT IS THE VERY LATEST.
