nj2va Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Major tree down in yard - totaled my moms car. Full assessment tomorrow. Made a huge crash. Missed the house by about 2 feet.

09-10 analogy Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Took a quick walk around and that'll be the last one for a while. Street signs shaking in the wind. It looks like a piece of siding may be getting ready to peel back from a neighbor's house. So this isn't the time to revel in the elements. The house is creaking now, so any poltergists that have been inhabiting it are getting exorcised out. Still have power, still no water in the basement. And we just got our mail delivered.

RickinBaltimore Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Interesting looking band rotating in from the NE through Baltimore. Anyone confirm a ratcheting up of the conditions? And just for fun, the "pivot" episode of Friends is on TBS right now. In Dundalk it's just pouring and winds going nuts at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Low clouds are simply ripping. Moderate rain with wind gusts building over 40 mph. Entire trees in motion. That wind chill is freezing cold. Smaller branches are all over the yard and road. This is NO time for a jebwalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Damn sorry to hear that Kman. There's a few others I'm keeping an eye on. I think it was a relatively healthy tree.
