Some Upper Dublin residents are still recovering after last year's Hurricane Ida caused a damaging tornado to tear through the township.
UPPER DUBLIN, PA — Volunteers worked over the Thanksgiving holiday to bring warm, homemade meals to Upper Dublin residents still grappling with the after-effects of last year's Hurricane Ida.

The group, which formed following the damaging Hurricane Ida in the fall of 2021, wanted to help Upper Dublin residents who continue to recover from the strong EF-2 tornado that was caused by Ida, and which caused extensive damage to parts of the township and neighboring communities after sweeping through Southeastern Pennsylvania.
