Hanna makes an unwanted visit to Allentown

Our hearts and prayers go out to our East Allentown friends who were affected from tropical storm Hanna which may have sparked a tornado that cut through the neighborhood around Dieruff High School. Pictured are two homes that were damaged on the 800 block of N. Kearney St. Roofs, siding, fencing and numerous tree damage in this area. Dieruff High School was indeed damaged with its flat roofing material tore from its decking. Many numerous mature trees around the school have been damaged and crews are on site to assist on the clean up and repairs. On the 800 block of N. Irving street, some homes also were also damaged with roofs blown off. The damages were estimated around 1.5 million dollars. Thankfully, with all the destruction no one was injured or killed during this storm.
