Ike
Some images of Ike:
85 MPH wind in our backyard
A street and soccer field (you can see the goal posts sticking out of the water) near my house
The wooden frame of a new home in my neighborhood didn't survive the storm
My parents are alright. They didn't have electricity for two days but they had plenty of stocked up food and water. One of my friends wasn't quite so fortunate. He had a good chunk of his roof collapse:
Shingles scattered everywhere
And all of this was only from a Category 3. I'd hate to see what a Category 5 would do... (New Orleans)
