A close family friend of mine, is in Springfield, MA. She made it through the storm okay. Bless her heart...she goes to Baylor with my niece, and was at school a few weeks ago, when they had tornadoes in Waco. She just got home (in Mass.) for summer break, and swears the tornadoes are following her!
