Message: [QUOTE="Kitaman, post: 3635610, member: 67"] I swear I've seen a couple of hurricanes (biggies), but I've never seen trees bend the way they did with this storm. Could have been simply because it was daytime, and more wind than rain. I'm in Fairfield County, so I have to imagine it must have been more powerful westward. We've got downed trees/branches but somehow the trees all stayed strong. I believe it had something to do with our lack of rain last month. Had the ground been saturated it would have been worse. I've got 4 huge oak trees that would level my house or anything they touch, so naturally I get nervous. What I learned; tropical storms (downgraded hurricanes) are still no joke. Big difference is that you can marvel and appreciate their power watching them vs hunkering down during a cane. [/QUOTE]
