    60 mile per hour winds today. Trees are down here, but nothing like the story I posted.

    Everyone stop these speeding trees! They are reckless.!!!! ;)

    A Russian olive blocked the road next to mine. It had to be chainsawed so cars could pass. There was also a large three trunked maple a town over that had one of the 3 trunks split and fall over.

    I can only hope my mega beech widowmaker finally has fallen.

    Horrible, Poor family. You never know when your time is up. When the wind blows, I stay away from trees. Years ago, I had a limb fall on an ambulance I was driving. No warning at all. That tree was just overhanging the road.
    Seems there are always stories like this one. Kids in a playground, or park etc.

    Watching the news, we had 63 mph gusts today here where I live.

    Not even a branch down here.
