We weren't affected by the tornado outbreak on Wednesday; the destruction was in southern central Massachusetts, around Springfield, and we're near the northeastern corner of the state. When the tornadoes came through, we didn't even get a thunderstorm; the nearest one passed just to our south (though there had been some severe ones earlier in the day). I do know some people with family members in the places that were hit.

Good news. That was really wild to hear about; you expect that sort of thing here in Kansas City, but Massachusettes, not so much.

There actually are tornadoes in Massachusetts every year or two, but really destructive ones are less common.
