Updated: Tower blown down causing communications failure in North Adams, Mass


A communications tower went down in North Adams, Mass, due to the terrible weather there. While it is causing a massive outage up there in public safety and cell coverage, no one was hurt! Luckily they got the 911 backup system working. 

New pictures! Thank you David King, these are awesome!
