Massachusetts had 21 cloud seeding generators in operation to try to squeeze every possible drop of rain from the clouds. Southern Vermont didn't get any rain. The area suffered extensive damage from a destructive wind storm. The wind knocked over tele phone lines and trees. No casual ties were reported. Many portions of dry New York and New Jersey also got heavy weekend downpours. I Central and Eastern New York I sections were hit by wind, light ning and deluges of rain, which sent streams swirling over their banks. In New Jersey, where crop losses already have been esti mated at 20 million dollars, the downpours were welcome, but apparently not great enough to overcome drought conditions en tirely or to refill low reservoirs.

She slammed into him again at Valley and Charnwood Ave. shouting "Turn around and fight like a man." Hit No. 3 was at Valley and Lillyvale.
