STORMS WREAK HAVOC AT BIG SPRINGS

(07/23/2008)

Wind, lightning and thunder swept through the Big Springs area shortly after 5 a.m. Tuesday, said Mandee Richards who submitted the these photos.

Richards said, "A tree fell on my husband's company truck and my work car, and caused all of the underpinning to be pulled from our house, the second time this year."

"The wind was also responsible for spinning around our 21 foot pontoon boat causing it to 'runaway' down our driveway, landing in our neighbor (my parents) garden. There was no major damage to the vehicles or boat, but I can't say that about Mom and Dad's garden, said Richards.
