Storm passes over Jersey and reaches Queens in rare tornado
A Jersey storm tracked southwest to northeast from Rahway through Bayonne to North Beach Queens. Eyewitness Miss Margaret Eddy described two storm clouds uniting over Staten Island with rotary motion. The tornado touched ground near La Tourette House and Eddy kite storage, snapped a 50 foot tree, tore awnings, and damaged several homes before moving skyward again. It struck Bayonne’s Lord Avenue area and hovered near William A. Eddy’s yard with debris and wind damage across the bay shore. The central path crossed the Battery area at 3:32 p m and North Beach around 3:33 p m leaving wreckage but no major frame-building collapses.
