Tornado

[wiperhunter2]

Thanks Roger, it came pretty close, two blocks away. Two houses were pretty much destroyed but thank God there were no deaths. Lots of trees uprooted or snapped off about half way up. Most of the damage was caused by falling trees except for the house that was lifted off it's foundation and its garage next to the house was totally destroyed, it looks like it was just crushed. I was outside when it hit and lucky for me I was on the opposite side of my house from where the wind came from. It was over in a matter of minutes but neighbors are still hauling away the fallen trees. Its amazing the number of people that have showed up to help. Three huge power poles were snapped in half and we were without power for over 24 hours. I was glad I decide to buy a generator years ago, that was the longest I have run it at one time, since I bought it. I have lots of relatives in Alabama and they have major hurricanes or tornado [:/] that destroy miles of land and houses at one time. We are lucky we live in a state where that type of destruction does not happen but these small ones are plenty scary.
