The storm took out our power from 1:45 yesterday afternoon until some time after 3:00 this morning.  A house a block from here had an old live oak go right through their 2nd story doing a ton of damage.  Other large trees were down, and serious limb damage was pretty wide spread where we're at.  My yard, and our entire cul de sac looked like the aftermath of a hurricane.  I work from home, so I watched first hand as the winds just exploded through our area, and the rain came down so hard I couldn't see the street 80 feet from my house.  We didn't get any tornado action, but having been through the last microburst that happened in this area a few years back, it looks very similar.
