I live in the greater Boston area and we had a small strong storm cell that produced a tornado a flipped cars and down hundreds of trees all in my neighborhood.. This is mind blowing for it to happen around here. It wasn't big but big enough to do all this damage. I will post pics as I'm able to move around the city. Can't get anywhere right now
 
Best i could do is pics of the news i cant get anywhere at all :grin: i called my buddy who's a cop in the city to if they needed any volunteers. he said just keep everybody inside for now and he'll call when we can move.. every single road is blocked off basically. never seen anything like this here in my life.. the pics are huge soo had to make a album for em

Good luck on the recovery process!

<*)))>{

thanks ice, I'm fine, I got lucky it hit two Streets down and just missed me, figures out of all the trees taken out the one out front out my house that I want gone didn't lose a limb :lol: just heard of one injury at the top of my street, a car got hit by a tree and sadly a baby was the only one in the car to sustain an injury but should be fine..
 
Jay glad you fared well through it all these were nasty storms that were quick to hit us here in New England .
 
Finally able to get out, and got some great pics, I still can't believe this happened here. They say it was a ef 2

Glad it missed you. We have not had too many this year yet, knock on wood. Coming from a state known for tornado's, I'm somewhat surprised there are as many leaves left on the trees I see in the pictures you posted. Normally when I see tornado damage the trees are stripped bare and most of the limbs are gone. I would have thought an EF2 tornado would have done more damage to the trees. The roof damage looks more like a smaller tornado, although sometimes downbursts can do quite a bit of damage. Tornado's can do strange things though, so anything is possible. The best news is that no one evidently was killed.
