Giant windstorms!!!

First set of trees on the road to our house (there were two sets of trees down)... A crushed car and truck a couple of blocks away...Snapped!!!
The road behind our place...
This is the house that was crushed...

We have been without phone, cable and internet for five days. We finally got it back this morning so here I am catching up.
Last Thursday night, there was an amazing wind storm here. Trees fell down right, left and centre, the power was out for days, and everyone was pretty freaked out. At two AM, while looking out the window, I noticed about ten flashlight beams lighting up the street outside. I threw on my coat and ran outside. Most of the neighbours were out running in the street watching the trees sway and fall. I have never heard that snapping noise before and it was LOUD!! The wind was AMAZING!! Things were flying everywhere! The attic cover in the ceiling upstairs was even sucked up into the attic and spun around! Our neighbour's house backing to the houses up the street was crushed by a tree. There are cars flattened everywhere. We only lost a eucalyptus tree in the backyard. The double swing was tossed upside-down and through the garden. Anyhow, here are some pictures of the devastation...
