blueether Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Just had one here lasted some 4 hours. Lots of trees down here and a bit of roof damage, Pit Stop's roof came off and hit the powerlines above thus our side of town was powerless.

blueether Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 after a quick drive around town I would think I saw close to 50 trees down or badly damaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
