Severe Storms Hit Western Mass | Spokane News
Description
Severe storms slammed Western Massachusetts Saturday, with Springfield declaring a state of emergency after a building partially collapsed and dozens displaced. Winds hit 70 mph, triggering a “macroburst” that tore through Berkshire, Hampshire, and Hampden Counties—toppling trees and power lines. Governor Maura Healey offered condolences, while Mayor Domenic Sarno confirmed emergency crews were on scene. Thankfully, no injuries or deaths were reported, and all displaced residents are now in temporary housing. Cleanup is underway, especially in Forest Park and the South End, with most power restored—but a few still without electricity. More storms could return Monday, so stay alert.
