Heard it confirmed as an EF3, that's rough. Ironically, today we stumbled upon Woods Valley. Nice local hill, talked with the owner for a bit. They got hit by a tornado about 2 years ago, lifted the old base shack off their main Hall Double bottom terminal so it's got a nice, new hut. Thankfully it missed the brand new lodge they just had put up (umm, Sunday River, please take note. This thing is gorgeous!). Tons of snowmaking investment on the hill too, and they have two new to them chairs in the lot. They will start with upgrading their beginner double to a quad sometime soon. Odd though I stumbled upon another hill hit by a twister not so long ago.
