PHILADELPHIA (CBS) Eyewitnesses say it felt like a bomb went off and dozens are still cleaning up after damaging winter thunderstorms blew through the area.
Gemma Pomilio, still recovering from the aftermath of the previous storms, is back on the phone filing more claims.
I dont know where to start. There are so many windows and theyre broken, theres glass everywhere, Pomilio explained.
Pomilio from the 500 block of Hermit Street in Philadelphias Roxborough neighborhood is not alone. Her neighbors spent the day cleaning up and wondering what went wrong.
Jamie Wright rushed home after his girlfriend called him frantically, She was pretty hysterical. She didnt know what had happened, felt like a bomb had gone off and blew out the window.
Guy Porcella added, 20 windows at least out of my house have been broken. Looks like some roof damage to the main roof and certainly the front porch, so a lot of mess to clean up.
According to PECO, in all, 27 customers lost power in the area. Were told the power outage was the result of two separate events: First at 10:30am, when a lightning struck a transformer then 20 minutes later at 10:50am, when a tree knocked down power lines.

CALEDONIA Royse Myers, who made his fortune in the heat-exchanger business, says hes designed a new heat-recovery system that could save energy and water used to run commercial dishwashers.
Myers proprietary heat recovery system was designed to make commercial dishwashers operate more efficiently. The Caledonia resident has formed Myers Heat Recovery Systems LLC and is patenting his new system.
Now hes ready to prove it will do what he says it will.
In 1969, Myers founded Thermal Transfer Products, now at 5215 21st St. The company built air-cooled and liquid-cooled heat exchangers. Its employment peaked at more than 300 people and $28 million in annual revenues when Myers sold it in 1999.
Myers said he started tinkering with his idea for a heat-recovery system for commercial dishwashers about five years ago, but plumbing code issues were interfering.
So I got a computer and started looking up components that were giving me problems, he said. I discovered some components from China that were just exactly what I wanted.
Low-temperature commercial dishwashers use water as it comes out of a water heater at 160 degrees, Myers said. High-temperature dishwashers have internal electrical heaters that boost the water temperature to 180 to 190 degrees.
Usually, the discharged dishwater goes directly down the drain, carrying its heat energy, he said. But Myers design would use a separate loop of liquid to capture some of the dishwaters heat before it goes to the sewer.
The captured heat would warm water before it enters the water heater, reducing the amount of energy needed to bring the next batch up to dishwasher temperature.
Myers hasnt even built a prototype system yet, and he knows his company is embryonic. His system is theoretical at this point, but I know its going to work, he said. He has a plumbing contractor ready to build his system, one order at a time.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Eight employees and one guest of the Westin Hotel at BWI went to the hospital, including four who went to the hyperbaric chambers at Shock Trauma, to be treated for carbon monoxide poisoning.
Now Eric Hammack with the Anne Arundel County Department said a flue valve related to the water heater in the laundry room caused the leak.
A carbon monoxide leak could have deadly consequences. Fire officials say a reading of 35 parts per million for carbon monoxide is when they become concerned. When they arrived at the Westin, they found readings much higher.
The highest readings at the Westin Hotel was 700 to 800 parts per million, Hammack said.
Making matters worse, the Westin Hotel did not have any CO detectors as only new hotels built after 2013 are required to do so. Because of the problems this past weekend at the hotel, Anne Arundel county fire officials insisted some carbon monoxide detectors be installed.
Our code enforcement unit has required them to install carbon monoxide detectors in the laundry room where the leak was and the areas close by the laundry room, Hammack said.
This incident has gotten the attention of lawmakers in Annapolis. Sen. Joan Carter-Conway has introduced emergency legislation that will effect older hotels exempted from having CO detectors.
I thought we should have the bill for all hotels and have carbon monoxide detectors in each of them, Carter-Conway said.
Conway says that costs associated with this bill shouldn't be a concern to the hotel industry if it becomes a law.
If it does, become a law, it saves a life, she said.

Thornbury pool consultation for Mundy Playing Fields closes
4:29pm Wednesday 19th February 2014 in News By Emma Sisk, Gazette reporter
Thornbury Town Council Groundsman Paul Le Riche talking with visitors to the Mundy Playing Fields public consultation (4076893)
THORNBURY could be set to benefit from a brand new water park.
Councillors in the town came out in force to consult the public on the future of the paddling pool at Mundy Playing Fields.
They took to the streets last Thursday and Saturday to inform the public of two possible options for the site and it appears a new facility is the one favoured by residents.
The council wanted to hear the opinions of residents and young people in the town on whether they should refurbish the existing paddling pool or install a brand new water park.
The new water park would have a concrete base with a non-slip rubber floor. The water would be pumped from a mains and run-off water stored in a tank and used to water plants. It could be switched on and off by the council and would involve no chemicals. It would also be better able to cater for children with disabilities.
The park would include a water tunnel, a raining horseshoe, water hopscotch and a mini fountain and is believed to cost in the region of 100,000. The cost of renovating the existing pool is thought to be between 60,000-70,000 although exact figures will be confirmed when a contractor has been appointed.
Funding for the future project has already been secured as Thornbury Town Council has made provisions within next years budget for the development.

Chamber Has a Plan for Tuxis Pond -
February 20, 2014 by
Mr HomeBuilder
The Chamber of Commerce and Madison Hose Co. #1 have submitted plans to the Inland Wetlands Agency seeking permission to install a new floating fountain in the center of Tuxis Pond. The new fountain would replace the existing one and become one part of a plan to upgrade and beautify the pond and surrounding area.
The Chamber and its Image Committee are asking for a regulated activity permit that would allow for the installation of a memorial illuminated floating fountain to be known as the Eileen Johnson Memorial Fountain at Tuxis Pond. Johnson was an active Chamber member who held several volunteer positions over the years. Most recently she co-chaired the Image Committee and, according to the application, it was her wish that the fountain be replaced. She presented the idea to the Chamber last fall, however, shortly after she became too ill to pursue the project. Her husband, Gunnar, and the Chamber have chosen to move forward with the idea.
There is more to the plan than the fountain. The Chamber envisions a cleanup and renewal of the area around the pond, including the clearing away of small trees and brush. Other plans could include projects to rebuild the walkway or add benches or a floating dock. The Chamber has investigated the possibility of setting up a fund through the Madison Foundation that could collect donations to establish a separate maintenance fund for the fountain and surrounding area.
The Chamber is not the only body in town interested in the health and future of Tuxis Pond. Both the Inland Wetlands Agency and the Conservation Commission have been discussing the state of the pond for some time. The subject of Tuxis Pond is a regular agenda item at their meetings.
The Planning & Zoning Commission's Plan of Conservation and Development recommends the town "seek ways to open up Tuxis Pond as an amenity for Madison Center." More than a decade ago there was considerable discussion of upgrading the pond and the boardwalk to encourage pedestrian traffic from the railroad station and parking areas at Bradley Road into the town business and commercial area.
The pond and surrounding wetlands are located south of Bradley Road, north of the Boston Post Road behind the Hose Company firehouse, to the east of Route 79, and to the west of the parking lot behind the Post Office.
At a Board of Selectmen meeting in August and again at budget workshops last month, the Madison Hose Company has requested the town consider installing a stand pipe in the pond, which sits behind the firehouse, to serve as a water supply when needed to fight fires downtown.
Fire Chief Robert Kyttle told the selectmen, "That pond has saved a lot more of downtown than a hydrant."
In the fire this summer that destroyed the building housing the Madison Wine Shop and Village Pizza, the water pumped from the pond was critical, he said. The hydrants in the town center were not sufficient.
"We also used the pond in 1985 in that fire. This summer was the second time that pond has saved downtown," Kyttle explained.
