I'm at my Fiancé's house in Harris County inside the Loop and trees down on the house and car.

Now looking for some tree guys.

Haven't been able to see how bad other areas got hit and I know we have lots of Houstonians here.
Curious how everyone fared.

Wasn’t a tornado. Just strong winds.

Trees down on the guy’s house and cars….I’m thinking he is not interested in a meteorology lesson right at this minute.

Technically maybe but it was easily 75-100 mile an hour winds to knock 2 trees over 100 feet tall from the root lifting a portion of driveway.
The soil wasn't even saturated yet.

Pics? Of fiancée or damage. Either will suffice.

We were at the batting cages warming up for a hitting session when the power went out. Had to wait like 14 minutes to reboot the pitching machines. #Houston Strong

Show your fiance that you can handle a chainsaw and some trees by yourself.

Getting rid of it with Houston’s shitty solid waste department would be next to impossible.

The wind from this storm was pretty damn serious.

Luckily seem to have escaped with all intact, just without power
