I was afraid of more trees coming down. We did lose a number of larger branches. It was bad around our house at 1am also. When I checked the weather on my phone, they said the worst would include 50+mph winds by 3am, so they were pretty accurate.

Godzilla killed me by stepping on my house, and then torched my neighborhood. That jerk.

He totally deserved that space asteroid soon after that crushed him.
