A derecho (the type of storm) passed over the Carbondale, IL area a few years ago and my friend who was hit by it said their property looked like it has been logged in a few moments. 15-20 acres suddenly blown down. Bobert, I'm glad you and P-Vine were safe in the house and the tub.

I'm not going to compare last year and this, that is pointless, but I will say that I have my fingers crossed that the trauma of the weather misses us this year.
