YIKES!

Damn, it is the opposite of that weather here. It just couldn't get any nicer.

That's the first thing I thought! Splat, get out the chainsaw and make some log piles in your roomy backyard!

Seriously though, that sucks about the house. I can only imagine what that's going to take to fix 'er back up.

the tree looks to have a decent amount of rot in the core...we've got a couple of large oaks right near our house which i am a bit worried about. maybe i should take a preventative measure.

glad to hear no one's hurt. trees are heavy!

i had an indoor soccer game last night in Revere at 11pm. I was there no more than 10 minutes when I hear a *BBBZZZAAAAAZZZZZ* from outside and the power goes out; guess a xformer blew or some such thing so the place shut down. I head home and the wind picked up to about 60mph out there and a lot of branches started to fall down. I get home and go to move cars around in the drive way when the sky turns blue and another transformer blows! The wind was blowing pretty hard so I got inside as quick as I could. Would be a bad thing if a line went down and zapped the flooded street I was standing in

60mph? That's child's play. Why, out here we routinely get 90+ mph right near the foothills. One time it blew the *windows* out of parked cars at Red Rocks Ampitheatre.

It's been pretty wild here as well. I've been watching boats moored out in the harbor get pushed around by the wind and waves.

Yeah yeah yeah....we know...EVERYTHING is bigger, stronger, and more powerful in Colorado. Raindrops weigh six pounds, snowfall is never less than three feet, and the hurricanes are the most powerful on Earth.
