IT HAPPENED IN SPRINGFIELD HISTORY
This photo was taken at the Harvey Mahloch farm west of Hwy 50 and Platteview Rd.
Roof damage on the new wing at Platteview Central Jr. High School
One of the many cleanup efforts in Springfield.
The weather turned fierce when winds near 100 miles per hour caused significant destruction throughout most of Sarpy County on August 2, 1970. The Springfield and Gretna areas were hit hardest. Barns and other farm structures were destroyed along with thousands of uprooted trees. Both Platteview High and Platteview Jr. High Schools suffered serious damages, particularly to the roof of a new wing in the Jr. High. In Springfield, losses to Zimmerman Feed Yard located on the south edge of town included several head of cattle killed or injured by flying or fallen debris. The city of Springfield was declared a disaster area. The entire county’s damage was assessed at $1,771,500.
SPRINGFIELD AREA MASTER GARDENERS NEWS
I love all the seasons as a gardener. Spring with new life going into the ground, summer with warmer weather and the chance to see your hard work shine for all the people to see, winter for a chance to rest. Oh wait, I forgot fall. I love the colors, the harvest, cooler temperatures, but not the RAGWEED!
