We are in the Quad Cities (Iowa) and were without power for about 24 hours. We just minutes ago got our internet back, from Monday, early afternoon when it rolled through. Looked like a war zone around here in spots. We lost the top of our big Maple tree in the back yard but fortunately no structural damage to the house. Craziest thing I’ve ever seen. 90 mile an hour straight line winds.
Bad deal.
We had 110 mph shear winds when we lived near the NW Minnesota border.
Very much a park-like town, thick with trees...10,000 trees went down that eve, so they said.
That terrific wind sounded like a 747 taking off, then suddenly it stopped.
