Ryan right behind me here is that group of massive oak trees in that familys front yard that came crumbling down in a matter of seconds during that quick storm we experienced earlier this afternoon. You cant walk but a couple steps in this yard without nearly tripping over these branches that are scattered. We are located right now at 4020 southwest 20 six st. This family has a lot ahead of them in terms of cleaning up. I am joined with the homeowner. Explain to us what you heard, what you saw. We were in the living room actually, and the sky turned a really strange color. All of a sudden, the wind picked up and it really looks like a blizzard. I dont even know how to describe this. It was kind of machine kind of whooshing. I yelled at the kids to have for the basement and thats when i saw things flying past, trees comi
