Yes thank you VDC for confirming the tornado. I’m on Rood Pond Road and I saw pea size hail. No trees were down in my yard but electricity was out for over 1200 homes according to Washington Electric. Our electricity did come back on 6 am the next day.
Don’t worry, there will be a new Bill presented in Legislature to ban all gasoline cars again because of this storm
I wonder how much it will cost the taxpayers to study the reasons for this twister?
Not to worry, Attorney General charity Clark is on the case suing big oil. Reparations are on the way 😉
She is also going to sue Trump for his NWS confirming the tornado. No Trump=no NWS=no tornado
The legislature will require permits & fees from all future tornadoes
The storm is Biden”s fault
I never thought that I would see or hear something like this coming out of my hometown! Stay strong BillTowner’s
