Just had a tree about 3" in diameter and 35' tall come down from my neighbor's yard across my truck and hit the corner of the sunroom where I'm sitting at my computer. It's balanced across the hood of my truck and the corner of the house right now. Doesn't look like any major damage beside a few dents in the truck and a smashed gutter on the front of the house. Scared the crap out of me though.

Severe thunderstorm warning now for Durham and Wake. Oddly, winds have largely died down. (SW Durham here)
