The aftermath of a July 21, 2010 tornado in Westport.
The nor’easter of March 13-14 2010 in Westport is still unlike any storm I’ve experienced anywhere. I don’t recall our area getting hit as hard ever, including during Sandy, but I may be wrong. I was surprised to learn that this storm didn’t have a “name” attached to it.
The amount of damage and trees fallen seemed countless at the time of the 2010 nor’easter. It took us two weeks to get power restored. I hope this tornado won’t have a similar effect. Be well and stay safe everyone!
