Yesterday we stopped at my parent's house to trade vehicles with my dad so that we could take our bikes back to Belleville before the movers come. After Brian looked at the weather, he decided that we should stay a few hours so that the storm that was coming could pass through and go ahead of us across the state. My sister was over, so we decided to look at her pictures from their trip to Europe. While we were looking at the pictures, a downpour started with a lot of wind, lightning, and thunder. The power blinked off a few times, but always came back on. We heard a lot of noise from the storm, but never guessed what all the noise actually was. Brian was in the garage putting all our stuff in the truck.
When we were done looking at the pictures, we got up and Dad noticed that there was a lot of leaves pushed up against the kitchen window. When he looked out the slider door, we all realized that half of the giant maple tree in their backyard had fallen on top of the garage! Since it was still downpouring, we couldn't go outside and check it out, but we could see more branches dangling over the front of the garage above my car and that two branches had punctured the roof in two different places.
Once the rain slowed down, we all headed outside to check it out. Here's some of the pictures:

My sister had a tree fall on her garage (no major damage) and my brother's neighbor's tree fell between their houses yesterday! It was so bizarre that they all fell yesterday!
