(This is horrible. Thoughts and prayers indeed. - promoted by Dean Barker)
Just want to send my thoughts and prayers out to the victims of today's NH tornado and to all those whose homes have been damaged or destoyed by the tornado and/or by flooding.
In a state of emergency like today, Governor Lynch has proven to me repeatedly that he will rise to the occasion, so a quick prayer for him too.
To our first responders, state troopers and National Guard - thank you and be safe!
Update (Dean):
Violent storms in a 25-mile-long swath of central New Hampshire on Thursday destroyed several homes, damaged dozens of others and left at least one person dead, authorities said as police and firefighters went door-to-door searching for more possible victims.
..."It appears that there are at least 100 homes damaged and probably at least a half dozen homes which have been completely destroyed," Lynch said after a helicopter tour.
"It was a narrow swath of destruction that went from Epsom all the way to New Durham," he said.
...[Epsom resident Ron] Olson said the storm began with pounding rain followed by "a wicked, wicked loud noise - like a train or a jet was landing on the roof."
