All we got was some very nasty winds and torrential downpours...but it was enough to dislodge these two tulip trees. One had been damaged in the building of the house 5 years ago, but we thought the other was pretty healthy. Notice that it missed the compost corral but did knock aside the bat house. AND more money to fix that damn deer fence...AGAIN! At least I am safe and my house is safe. I will not complain.
Our logs in the bedroom leaked with down pouring rain. Got the de-humidifier going in there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrifying storm system, so widespread an deadly. Looks like you have some serious tree-clean-up to do. Future firewood? I'm glad you're safe.
ReplyDeleteOh My Gosh... You did get it... GADS!!!!! BUT--like you said, it could have been much worse...
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Hugs,
Betsy
I'm so glad all you lost were the two trees. So much devastation, so many lives lost in so many ways...I'm glad you're safe. Love your compost bin! :)
ReplyDeleteVery glad you're safe. Sorry about your trees. What a bad storm.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear your safe. Trees can be replaced, people not so much. Take care.
ReplyDeleteIt could have been much worse. We had high winds and torrential rains off and on all day.
ReplyDeleteSo glad it missed you. Loved the osprey entries over there. Yes, your neighbors aren't going to be pleased. :)
ReplyDeleteBig winds are scary for good reasons!
ReplyDeleteI'm the sort that mourns fallen trees- sorry that happened to your yard! But yes, all without twisters this week are counting their lucky stars-
ReplyDeleteWe just got alot of wind, rain, n lightening, but not alot of local damage. I worked right through it n the power stayed on.
Best of luck with the clean-up.
Good to know you're safe Tabor. A lot of things are happening anywhere and it makes me scared.
ReplyDeleteWow. They say the rain soaked ground will increase the chances of trees uprooting with the high wind.
ReplyDeleteWe certainly have had a lot of wet ground. Let's hope it is over.
Glad to hear you are safe, Tabor. Trees can be replanted.
ReplyDeleteTabor, one of my big trees went also. So pleased this is all we had. Hoping this bad weather is over.
ReplyDeleteSO GLAD you are safe. What a storm. We only had some loud thunder and lots of hot wind and then rain and more rain - but no trees down. No shingles gone.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are safe.
I am very glad you're safe. What a scary and bad storm. It's sad that you lost your trees.
