Storm Damage

July 29th, 2007 by Kevin Lubinsky

A quick but nasty storm ran through Lemoyne and Wormelysburg the evening of July 29.  The Bureau was busy responding to alarms all over the Battalion area for floods, water rescues and fire alarms.  The worst damage occurred in an apartment building on N Front St in Wormleysburg, where a flash flood quickly filled numerous basement apartments with over 4 feet of water which residents were lucky to escape.  After over 7 hours of work, tired crews were finally able to get some much needed rest.
