Yesterday mid afternoon we had
a short yet intense rainstorm.
We were without power for six
hours – well past 10. One advantage is that wide spread power
outages eliminated light clutter
for firework viewing.
Whole trees or large portions of trees were down across the area…including several trees in our complex. Two large trees when down pulling their roots out while about a dozen others had major limbs snapped off like twigs. Beside are some pictures of how several large branches fell around Jonathan’s car. He has one small dent, that’s it. As you can see, if he parked a few inches further into the space or to the right even three inches his car would have been hit. The space he normally parks in is the one where the tree landed and it would have totaled any car parked in that space.
The new white car (still has the temporary plates on it) was not as fortunate. The back window is gone. The trunk, roof and side panel are well impacted. Watch for Evie's blog...she is looking at posting shots of downed trees in our complex.

Wow! Jonathan is lucky. I'm sure he would have been majorly disappointed had it had a direct hit.
