Nothing like lots of wind in an area with trees and a wet year where the soil is saturated with water to cause trees to fall over.

The damage to the Dairy Queen wasn’t from a tornado ... looks like it was from a Blizzard.

yeah... but the DQ is miles away from the Outlaws

my house (and the damage pics in my OP) are much closer to the Outlaws than the DQ

FWIW... I also live just off of the Monroe Hwy

I’m so glad we don’t have trees that could fall on our house. I worried about that all the time at old house.
