The building my girlfriend lived in 3 years ago while at Springfield College took a direct hit. A friend of hers that's there for some summer courses sent her these pics a few hours ago...

Talking to your g/f right now (she's visiting my daughter), and she was telling me about the destruction. Very unusual for Massachusetts. Barely got a drop of rain in Truro though.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Been a nerved up afternoon/evening. Watched the first funnel from my office window today. had to detour a few times to get home only to get on my street and freak out looking up in the sky (went straight for the basement) where we watched the hail and listened to the warnings of #2 ripping through the area on the radio. My part of Westfield made out ok but just a few miles across town was hit, through West Springfield & Springfield. Local news has sky cam footage was amazing as it hits the river.
Tornado touches down in downtown Spfld
Thoughts going out tonite to fellow W.Mass residents that were not so lucky.

I just got back into sturbridge from the cape. This vacation has bee a disaster. The amount of damage is amazing here. It was strange though. The path of the tornado is horrendous, but when you get out of that stretch you would never know we had anything more than a shower. I only saw it at night, tomorrow will be interesting for sure. I will grab some pics.

Everything is better on the rocks.
