Reports of a building collapse in NYC. Pulling this for various twitter accounts and liveblogs, so no summary links yet.

FDNY on the scene. No-one reported trapped. Supposedly a 4-story apartment building at 8th Ave and 14th St. Reported now as the Muscle Maker Grill building seen here on Google Street View.

This tweeter is on the scene with some images.

Looks like it was the facade of the building that collapsed.

More details from Meg Robertson;

Firefighters went in and rescued the residents. Some residents said same thing happened to same building 20 years ago.

Ouch, looks like the whole front facade of the building fell off.

Also reports they've found one of the two missing from the Bounty, but said to be unresponsive..

edit: Flightradar shows how air traffic has been pushed back to Pittsburgh and Buffalo. Except one US Airways flight that thinks this is a great time for a medium altitude flight to Albany. Glad I'm not on that plane.

THE WINTER MEN COME DOWN THE VALLEY AND KILL KILL KILL.
I kind of want to quote this based on the wonders of winter and wtf, if you didn't mind.

Also, that is a lot of people without power. =( Through some magical act of stupidity, I managed to not realize how extreme this storm was going to be. At least it's not mid-December or anything...

Edit: oh crap it went up 0.9 million while I was typing
