We are under a severe thunderstorm warning, a severe wind warning with the wind speeds to reach 55-60mph (90-100km) and a severe rain warning with another 3/8" (10mm) and the temperature to reach 70F (21C).It was overcast and fairly calm until around noon and then the wind started to pick up, the thunderstorm rolled in bringing the rain.
With all this going on, we also lost power a number of times during the course of the day and into the evening.
At the end of the storm more branches came down from the willow tree, a few of the pine trees lost the top branches and the maple in front of the house also lost a few more branches.
The maple tree at the back of the house lost a large limb and the old apple tree along the fence line had its trunk snapped in half.
The south walls on the east and west barns took a major hit with the west barn losing eight boards and the east barn losing more than ten boards and the wind breaking one of the doors.
Although, the damage could have been a lot worse than what happened.
