High Winds & Stormy Weather

Yesterday the wind began to blow with the rain. It began to blow harder &
harder & continued off & on for 5 hrs. till it was almost spooky!! Things were
really a rattling outside! When Kelly got home afterwork I ask him if he shouldn 't
move the vehicles to the side of the house just incase that dead tree let lose
some more limbs, like the last few times the wind had blown & alot milder winds.
Well later on that night after we heard there was even a "tornado" watch posted for the
valley which is hard to believe they even used that term, it's always been a micro-burst
here. Kelly went outside & called me to come here saying I wouldn't believe this!!
Well the wind blew over one of my favorite big trees & cut off our driveway completely!
Amazing!!! It was green & everything! Don't know why it went down! At least I'm glad
it didn't fall on our cars!











We had this size & several bigger limbs from the last winds. This was a new one.
