Another guy out in Woodlands had four trees go down in his yard. One of them damaged his 56 International pickup and 2 others hit the roof of his house and garage. He is OK also but suffered some serious property damage.

I had three trees split in half. One hit the car and truck. The second hit the fence. The third hit my neighbors three cars in his drive way. a 08 Camry, a 07 4 runner, and his 65 Lincoln town car.
I also lost about 180 ft of wood fence.

Bummer man. I hate to read threads like this. At least what damage you have is fixable. It could of hit your house.

The night before the storm hit here, I had my wife help me pull my 64 and my CJ7 away from the neighbors tree they were sitting under, which had been dropping large limbs on the jeep, and my storage buildings for the past month. Low and behold, this nasty storm didnt drop a single twig off of that tree! Go figure. Glad to see you guys came out ok!
