Had a windstorm come through Thursday (August 1) afternoon. And it was windy. They say 90 mile hour wind. Heard talk about it being a tornado, but the weather service said it was just straight line wind. Whatever it was, it was a doozy. We were just at the edge of it, but it made it's mark here. Down at Twin Bridges it really left it's mark. Lots of trees snapped off, uprooted, roofs torn off. They lost power until the next day. Friday morning we went driving around, checking the damage out. One ranch had some hay down...that ended up across the road, in the fence, up on the power line. Never saw hay on the power line before - wishing I had brought the camera along.
Here's what happened at our house:
 |
| Wind angle must've been just right: blew the stack poles over and then the hay blew over a half row at a time |
 |
| At least it wasn't anything more |
|
|
 |
| Made the remark to Hannah that I hoped the trees would stay up... |
 |
| Didn't see 'em snap 'cause we were watching the hay fall over |
