Near­ly a dozen home­own­ers in West­moor­ings are count­ing their loss­es af­ter a tor­na­do tore through the area yes­ter­day morn­ing, caus­ing mil­lions of dol­lars in dam­age and leav­ing streets cov­ered with de­bris.

Ac­cord­ing to the Diego Mar­tin Bor­ough Cor­po­ra­tion Dis­as­ter Man­age­ment Unit (DMU), the storm dam­aged 12 roofs, trig­gered two in­ci­dents of flood­ing, and brought down at least one large tree.

The streets hard­est hit in­clud­ed Cher­ry Cres­cent, St An­tho­ny’s Dri­ve, Row­land Road, and West­ern Cir­cle, where res­i­dents faced pow­er­ful winds that tore off rooftops, brought down pow­er lines, and scat­tered de­bris across roads and prop­er­ties.
