Tornado Recovery Continues


 Volunteers Continue with Cleanup in Hazelwood

Trees and limbs stockpiled in front of yards on Saturday, April 13

By Pat Lindsey

Last Thursday, on the day after an EF2 tornado ripped through Hazelwood and Florissant with winds of 110 mph, the air in the hardest hit areas smelled like Christmas, but no one was celebrating.  A massive cleanup had begun on Holiday Avenue., Lynn Haven Lane, and surrounding streets, and tree trimming crews were removing the largest pines that had caused so much of the damage. While much has been removed, the work continues this week.

RED CROSS MOVES HAZELWOOD SHELTER TO 8969 DUNN ROAD


Six Spent Night at Armstrong School

The American Red Cross St. Louis Area Chapter is moving the Hazelwood shelter to the civic center at 8969 Dunn Road because Armstrong Elementary School does not have power.  Six people spent the night in the Red Cross shelter at Armstrong Elementary last night after tornadoes ripped through the North St. Louis community.  Red Cross disaster assessment teams will begin canvassing tornado damaged neighborhoods in Hazelwood this morning, after police and fire have determined the area is safe.  Down power lines and a gas leak have prevented first responders from allowing assessment teams in the affected areas.  Assessments are required before the Red Cross can begin casework. Volunteers will likely start damage assessments sometime Thursday morning. Caseworkers expect to meet with clients this afternoon.
