And How was your Day?

Woke up to find this yesterday - we had a brief but quite strong wind go through last night and it took down my maple tree in front of the house. There went my shade and my $$$. Such is life these days.
Oh my! So sorry, Milanie. Maybe the rest of the tree can be saved.

Ooh! my , what devastation, The winds must have been so ferocious to bring down all those branches , I hope they did not damage anything else!
July 19th, 2023  
Oh no, How devastating and disappointing for you.
July 19th, 2023  
Wow! Such strong weather this year. Glad you are ok!
July 19th, 2023  
So sorry, scary!
July 19th, 2023  
Oh no what an awful shame!
July 20th, 2023  
Oh dear...At least you and your home are safe.
July 20th, 2023  
Oh, no! Sorry that happened! 😳
July 20th, 2023  
Oh, so sorry. And shade is really needed this summer.

How sad. Glad the damage wasn’t worse though.

Had the same thing last week in my neighbors yard. Fortunately, we were able to get it cut up and the trash hauled it off the next day. Been getting some really strong winds through there with some of these thunderstorms. Good luck on the clean-up.

A mess to clean up; glad nothing landed on the house!
July 20th, 2023  
Oh how sad, I sure hope the rest can be saved!

What a shame, I'm glad that it didn't damage your house.

@marlboromaam @rickster549 @ludwigsdiana Thanks for the thoughts - but the tree service said the rest couldn't be saved. They just finished cutting, grinding, and hauling off all the mess. How different the house looks without that tree.

So sorry, Melanie. We just had to take one down preemptively lest it come down in a storm. Glad you are ok though.
July 20th, 2023  
What a shock that must have been… I know you are sad to loose the maple.

Wind, snow or drought seems to be the story these days. Sorry for your loss. (Looks like in the photo, that the tree might be savable.)

It's a shame about the shadow, but it's probably just a big branch that broke off. Good thing it didn't cause much damage.
