Yes Brad, This area was hit pretty hard. Lots of towns and areas around here will be without power for days they say.
We still have power here though. Lots of downed trees and roof damage in my neck of the woods. Just lost a bunch of shingles from the barn and metal roofing from from a couple sheds here. No house damage that I know of yet. Lost Direct TV sat., but thats just an inconvenience. :msp_ohmy:
Their are a number of neighbors who lost barn roofs, or parts of them. Funny thing, most of the damage was to newer style metal pole buildings, just lifted roofs off of them. I seen the neighbors tandem axle livestock trailer sitting on its roof. I must say, that was the hardest I have ever seen the wind blow in my 58+ years. It seemed to last for some time also. Not just a quick blast and done. I heard weather reports, just before it hit here, of 90 mph straight line winds in Fort Wayne, and 85 in Lima. Don't care to see that again.
Gregg,
