Kankakee County storm pics

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty

 The pictures below are in the Historic Riverview Area of Kankakee County.   Hundred year old trees were picked up and dropped like they were matchsticks. 

  The storms hit Monday night and left thousands without power.  A second wave of storms hit on Tuesday - with a tornado touching down by St. Anne at 6:00 a.m.  Area residents were still without power as of last night with many businesses, including the courthouse still without power.

Terrible. I hope that no one was hurt.

Such power in the wind - these things happen so quickly!  We just never know what may be in store for us tomorrow.  Hope the area electricity gets restored soon!

No one was hurt that we've heard about.  Just vehicles and property. Thankfully! There are still areas without power.

Oh, so sad.  Sorry to see all this.  I hope all came through okay.  Such a shame when a beautiful old tree goes down.
