The storm is moving into Union. THis is right before the wind gust came. |
 |
Here is our garage door after the storm, it was bent in further but my father and I during the storm drove the car into it to stop it from
comming in closer. Later come to find out about 3 other houses in St. Andrews all had Garage damage. most homes had roof damage. |
 |
This is another damaged garage door down the stret. |
 |
Heres a tree that fell in the street, the cop stops to check the damage. Union had a backhoe here to move the tree about 1hr after
the storm. |
 |
My mother was on her way home from work on Highway 50 whe she stated that she saw roof flying. Come to find it was parts of Citgo. She was
in the main affects of the storm, Highway 50 and Highway 47 meet. That area was the hardest hit in Union, she saw the 34Kv poles "just snap
in half" and a johnny on the spot fly infront of her. She made it home safe. |
 |
This is the otherside of Citgo, the 34Kv pole snaped right above the 7,200 line. The pole is along Highway 47 going to St. Clair, the poles along
Highway 50 snapped also. |
 |
This is the poles down along Highway 50, My mother also saw these "just snap in half." Ameren was out on the scene getting pictures so they
know what to order. |
 |
Here is Ameren taken photos of the damage near the substation. |
