| - the New Years 2019 Times Square tornado was the deadliest tornado ever recorded, mainly due to the reason on how little advance warning the public got...and because of the Ball Drop going on in Times Square (which was around the time the tornado hit the area) The Weather Channel also was airing a special talking about the outbreak which took place exactly a year earlier...with the occasional breaking now sequence by Dr. Greg Forbes talking about the severe thunderstorms mainly to the south in Virginia where 6 tornadoes, including 2 EF3's and 1 EF4 touched down as well as the severe warned cell in PA with another tornado warning on it...SKYWARN was not really paying much attention to this potentially dangerous tornado until it was already too late...just at 11:59:42PM, only 18 seconds until the tornado hit the ball drop at exactly 12:00:00AM the sirens started going off, people though that they had enough time to finish the countdown...until 11:59:54 (6 seconds) until the ball drop when the tornado started shattering windows...people did not have enough time to get to shelter though, the tornado blew down the historical Times Square Ball onto 4,276 people, killing all of them...more buildings were blown down...killing an additional 4,500-5,000...the tornado continued across Long Island...The Weather Channel recorded the devastation from the ground when the storm moved away from Times Square...this tornado was the second of 3 violent tornadoes caused along the East Coast that night.
