The Newton school district and city public works continued digging out Monday from a weekend storm that a government meteorologist described as a giant water balloon pelting the city. The storm, blowing 60-70 mph winds Friday night, littered streets with tree limbs and peeled the roof off the school district’s maintenance and storage building, causing equipment and supplies to be inundated and ruined. The storm also peeled brick facing off a school gym.
