Didn't think it was microburst but I did post that the cloud looked very weird over NYC where I said it looks as if Allah was punishing NYC for burning Koran

Yeah, seen it few times in my life too. I saw one that brought a wall of dust thousands of feet into the air back in Utah. It also caused trees to suddenly go wild. :lol:
 
Most of the microbursts are from dying thunderstorms that are dissapating and die off. (losing strengh and fizzling out)

I wouldn't call it a "tornado".... more like a sudden gush of wind

I agree... I was in NYC at Port Authority and Penn Station yesterday (Thursday) late morning...hmm I must've missed it. It didn't happen in Long Island though. Luckily enough, my friend's wedding is still standing set at 2 pm today (Saturday).

but the view was breathtaking and powerful.

Sorry if i'm being nosy but curious..what kind of camera did you use to shot the gush pic? I know what you mean about no depth enough and not rich of color, even the texture for the distance shot pic like Canon Powershot S400, S500, and S1000. These are the kind of cameras I have now.
