Lots of tree damage in my neighborhood. From the sounds and locations of the damage reports....

....and the look of my back yard, if there was a tornado, it tracked right over my house.

Big branches down on the deck and in the yard, and my metal outdoor chairs all got blown over. Need some sunlight to get a real feel for how bad it is, but our street and the streets to the south were covered in leaves and branches. Kept power other than a brief outage, though.

AM update-4 or 5 2-3" diameter limbs down in back yard, soffit blown out of west facing roof.

All of them were probably 15-20' long. Going to need to get the chainsaw out tonight.

Tons of smaller branches all over.

Everything came off my neighbor's huge silver maple....thank God they cut the big limb off that arched over our garage and 2nd story roof.

Soffit sections on my 3 season roof, in my back yard, and in my neighbor's back yard.

Lots of damage just southwest of us at the mall and tracking back toward the Rock River-saw a house basically cut in half by a old growth tree that got blown over. Tons of big limbs down on my drive to work. Apparently blew trailers over at the Fedex Freight facility in East Moline/Silvis. 5k without power earlier this morning.

Based on the fact that the damage seems to be in a relatively straight line from south of the metro, through Moline, and up into EastMo and Silvis, and most of the tree damage looks like the trees were twisted, they don't think it was straightline winds.

80+ mph wind speed measured at the airport.

MAJOR UPDATE: EF-1, 100mph winds, NWS track has it going essentially right over my house.

So that's a first.

Guessing it was airborne by the time it got to our neighborhood....lots of tree damage, no real structural damage to anyone other than a few broken windows, some roof damage, and some soffit and fascia damage. Tree damage loos like it was limited to the higher branches of some of the bigger trees in the neighborhood. We back up to a wooded ravine, so there's a fair amount of tree damage behind our house.

"the sum value of my outfit will always be higher than yours."

Comparatively, it wasn't that bad, and our damage is superficial.

Wouldn't have wanted to be in that house I saw. Older summer home right on the Rock River.

We've gotten derecho damage in the past, but if they decide this was a tornado it'll be the first one that's come close to our house in the 30 or so years we've been in that neighborhood.
