4 Dead in springfield tornados

Bubbafat · June 2nd, 2011, 14:25

Tornados ripped through my neighborhood and all around springfield mass yesterday, and from what i was hearing between 5-7 of them touched down in different spots. Although the first one i was lucky enough to get a picture of as it passed by

Put mass in a state of emergency and all of that good stuff. National guard called in, lots of damage and 4 confirmed dead. To read all the details just go to wwlp.com like all thats being talked about. What are your thoughts?

Are the Simpsons alright?

On a more serious note, my condolences to those affected. Seems the weather has been a bit more active than usual. :/

one of the episodes hinted that it was Springfield, Ohio

The cell that caused the tornado skimmed north of us. We actually got nothing here in Attleboro. Strange weather pattern this year....tornadoes are unheard of around here, especially ones that kill

Ah, I forgot that. Although they didn't exactly say Ohio, it was "Oh hi" and they said hi to another character.

Hope there wasn't too much damage and not many severely injured.

I have one friend i know personally that lost his entire house. Not so fun. Kinda scary when none of the cellphones worked, even home phone stopped working. A lot of my neighborhood lost power and some still dont have it. Took a bike ride (took me 4 hours what normally is like 1) houses crushed, power lines down everywhere, pain in the butt. traffic was backed up in so many places. Fun. Hilarious biking through the golfcourse and seeing all of the tree's down and shingles and siding laying about when the closest house is like 300 yards away.

That's the deal with mothers and the fathers. Awesome picture. Traumatizing yet exciting in one package.
