Holy shit. During Chido all we had were mild damages to doors and the like. But… it was already frightening as hell. I never thought wind could be so strong. People in the slums had it way worse. I only saw the aftermath. Some got chopped in half by their metal sheets carried by the wind, or their lost an arm or a hand…
Right after we bought our house, a storm brought a tree through the roof. At the time we were in the living room staying away from windows, but a branch punched through the roof right over my wife’s side of the bed. More than 6 inches away, but still spawned some unnerving "what if?"s.
During Helene, I had a tree fall through my house while I was in bed, and it stopped about 6 inches from my face
That’s some Donnie Darko shit right there.
