http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOClPsZmjzQ Holy smokes, the boats are all lumped together out in the lake: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VS_1Yur8wnU Aw man, I feel bad for everyone that lost their boat in that mess. So soon before the season starts, ugh. |

I'm somewhat surprised at what damage didn't occur. It's almost like the entire dock system...while somewhat intact...was just pulled off the shore connection and left out in the lake. A good chunk of the boats remain lined up in their slips. |

Tornados do the strangest things. I've personally seen entire roofs sitting next to the house they were on with every shingle still intact. Creepy! From that same storm. there was a house with no damage what so ever, but the huge oak in the front yard was pulled up roots & all laying on it's side in the front yard. (3' diameter trunk!) |

Man that really sucks for all the owners. Insurance companies are going to really hate this!! Of course may help all the local boat dealers move some inventory as I am sure most of those boats will be scrapped. |

Which is fine unless there's a lot of rain during the days before high winds. The soil gets oversaturated and becomes rather loose. The roots pull right out. Thus the reason there's a large diameter hole left when the oak topples. |
