Tree falls on the house! May 27, 2024.
The big tree in the back yard fell onto the house at 5:15AM during a short spate of heavy wind. These are damage photos.
I was sitting on the porch less than ten feet away from where the tree hit.

This was the first thing I saw after the impact.  It was dark outside and there was no power.
