Was in a wind storm last year where I watched from my basement apartment as the wind blew stronger than I’ve ever seen on the branches of the tree in the back yard. It looked like the wind was so strong it was ripping the sod off the ground at first, until I realized that the tree was going down and pulling its root ball with it. Luckily in the opposite direction, though I am curious how that would have turned out if it landed on the house instead of my internet wire.
