Tornadoes hit Massachusetts ...

They normally hit the Midwest. Apparently one just missed New York City.

BOSTON (CBS) — Peter Judge of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency confirms there were at least four deaths in Wednesday’s tornadoes.

Gov. Deval Patrick had said during a news conference just before 8 p.m. that he knew of at least one death in West Springfield, when a car overturned.

MEMA officials later confirmed two fatalities occurred in West Springfield, one in Springfield and one in Brimfield. Early reports from MEMA of two deaths in Westfield were incorrect.

Tornado touchdowns were confirmed in a number of communities, including Westfield, Springfield, West Springfield, Brimfield, Wilbraham, Sturbridge, Monson, Oxford, Charlton, and Agawam.
