Hey, Bill Goodwin and Richard Muise,and Matt, how are you doing after yesterdays tornadoes in Springfield? Hope you and your family and all made it OK.
Watching the news it really looks bad for some.

Bill N.Y.I just got off the phone with Richard - all is ok. Funnel cloud was less than
250 feet from his house. Only electricity is in his Barth with spotty wifi capabilities. Houses destroyed all around him but his house was relatively unscathed.
The wind blew his coach off of the jacks and collapsed them but he was able to retract 'em.
Bill is ok too, Richard talked to him earlier today.
No reports from Matt yet.

BarthBluesmobileAll is well, no damage.
The tornado through the lower part of the state went about 35 miles and was headed for my town but gave out about 5-10 miles away. We were hunkered down in the basement.
I saw hail larger than golf balls!
There were 3 tornadoes in the state. There was lots of severe lightning. A pine tree which we think is 120 to 150 years old, at my parents house, got hit and exploded.
thanks!
Matt
