The news ran reports.
Vehicle owners had a hard time finding their automobiles because they were not properly tagged and not even sure what lot they were towed.

That storm was pretty impressive and the winds were very strong.


In 1967 it seems the storm took people by surprise.

The surprise coulpled with equipment that was sub par made in for a big clean up and from what I read a very long clean up.
The storm more or less stuck overnight and into the mid morning. LSD wasn't fully clear until 2 days later.

Sat on my couch and did a bit of work, I was loving life


Sounds awesome
