Almost summer

[Whisper]

Took a ride over to Springfield Massachussetts yesterday afternoon to see the after-effects. The path of destruction was a str8 line, east to west, maybe 1/8 of a mile wide. Huge tree ripped out of the ground, those not ripped out had their tops ripped off, branches all gone.

The tornado went through a section of downtown, down the main street, knocking out sections of buildings, and windows. Then through an urban residential area, slicing off sections of buildings and roofs. Then it jumped maybe a 1/4 mile before coming down again in another neighborhood. Trees through roofs of houses, roofs gone, walls gone, 200 year trees reduced to kindling.

Lots of streets were blocked off, cops everywhere, lots of debris already cleared up into big bundles, people walking around checking it all out, bars were open and a somewhat party atmosphere. The town looks more like a logging camp than a banking center.

That sounds bad, I hope they recover fast
