20110608--Tornado path from space
The wiki page () has the satellite image of the path which I've crudely pasted onto Google map:

20110608 Tornado Aftermath
After the tornadoes, there are so many trees down. Wilbraham is gathering brush in 18 wheeler dump trucks from the neighboorhoods, bringing them to Post Office park where the Mother of All Woodchippers has created a couple of two story piles of chips. This does *NOT* do the piles justice.

20110603 Two days after tornado
There were 2 tornadoes; the first tore through West Springfield, through Island Pond, through East Longmeadow, up Tinkham Rd about 1000 yards South of me and continued up and over the mountain to tear up Monson. Within the path the destruction is unimaginable.
Here are a few photo and video links. My family was very lucky. Now we need to help our neighbors and church members. The cleanup will take a very long time.
