    Exclamation There was a tornado in Springfield just now!

    I have no idea how much damage was done!
    I just hope everyone in western Massachusetts is OK!
    What about our motel?
    What about the Big E?
    I have no more information!
    Maybe some western MA girls will be able to find out.
    Fingers are crossed we'll still be able to go!

    Oh my, that isn't usually tornado territory, is it? I don't think of Mass as being in the "zone"

    No, Heather...it's very unusual!
    They are now saying ANOTHER tornado is heading for the same area, but not as strong as the first one.
    This is way too awful.....just when you think your area is safe from such things, look what happens!

    I agree, Joanie, I've been watching the news since 3pm today and it is awful to see the houses in Springfield and western Mass and all the damage there...I keep watching and where I live (near Fitchburg/Leominster) it seems there might be another storm heading here..I hope not though..it is very scary as like you said before we are not used to such things in our area. I was hoping the tornado would weaken instead of get stronger..which it has done..I'm saying prayers for everyone involved in this mess.

    Stay safe! I heard it on the news this evening and was very surprised too.

    The tornado was just in my town a little bit ago.we were all down the basement watching the news and then lost the tv and then it passed or so we hope it has passed..they mentioned all towns surrounding us including my town of Townsend, but it is just thundering now so I am hoping that it is done. I feel bad for western Mass as they keep getting hit with tornados and everything. I just hope that this tornado weakens and dies quickly so there is no more damage. I think I heard there was one fatality.

    I just got home from zumba and it is saying it was in West Springfield....that's where the Big E is.
    I fear the convention might not be happening, girls.
    I just guess if that happens, we were meant to save our money!
    Not that I wanted to!
    I'm going to check the heirloom pro site to see if there is anything there yet.
