| episode_narrative | A severe thunderstorm brought a wind gust to 60 mph to a part of Westfield and West Springfield. A tree and some wires were reported knocked down. Several hours after the storm, at 9:30 PM, a large tree, likely weakened by the earlier strong winds, fell on a crowd of people gathered at an outdoor festival, killing one man and injuring six other people. Dime size hail fell in Holyoke and nickel size hail was reported in West Springfield. A cable TV repairman was struck and injured by lightning in Ludlow. |
