'Utter Devastation' In Brimfield After Tornado Outbreak
BRIMFIELD (CBS) - In all, 18 communities sustained serious damage from a tornado outbreak in Massachusetts on Wednesday, but perhaps the hardest hit area was Brimfield, a small Massachusetts town located halfway between Springfield and Worcester.
One of the four people killed in Massachusetts during the severe weather outbreak was from Brimfield, a town home to less than 4,000 people.
WBZ-TV's Jim Smith said there was "utter devastation" on Haynes Hill Road in Brimfield.

Jim described that over a several-acre stretch, several trees and homes were completely leveled.
SkyEye surveyed the damage over Brimfield on Thursday and captured images of a turned-over school bus in the middle of a wooded area, cars on top of flattened homes, and what appeared to be siding floating in a nearby body of water.
