The gusty winds contributed to quite a bit of storm damage on Monday in the Philadelphia region.<\/p>\n
Trees were ripped from the roots, and two families couldn’t stay in their homes after the facade was torn off in West Oak Lane.<\/p>\n
As the rain finally lets up and the region begins to dry out, the cleanup is far from over.<\/p>\n
The fronts of two rowhomes crumbled to the ground Monday night as severe weather hit the Delaware Valley.<\/p>\n
One neighbor said she noticed the homes partially collapse right after torrential rain rolled through.<\/p>\n
“The storm was incredible,” the neighbor said. “First it was rain, hard rain. The rain just came pouring, gushing down. Then I heard a clap of thunder that would make you move.”<\/p>\n
No injuries have been reported.<\/p>\n
It’s still not clear what exactly caused the partial collapse, but neighbors said this isn’t the first time something like this has happened on their block.<\/p>\n
“It’s no way to live, not knowing when a hard storm comes, is your house going to be next?” Shana Booker said.<\/p>\n
While the damage for some is extensive, neighbors said most importantly, they are all OK and they will help each other moving forward.<\/p>\n
“I literally see last have so much anxiety,” Booker said. “The only reason I am not in tears is because sure my neighbors who this affected, they are standing strong.”<\/p>\n
In Northeast Philly, a tree also snapped at its roots and is leaning on a home and blocking the front door.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yellow tape blocked off the house, but people inside said they’re OK.<\/p>\n
The Red Cross said it’s helping 13 people (three families) because of the storm damage in West Oak Lane and Northeast Philly.<\/p>\n
