Had just settled in to sleep when a storm came through over and hour ago and heard a crash that shook the whole house. Part of the big maple tree in our front yard broke and came down on the house ripping our DTV dish off and doing damage to the roof. Can't tell much else right now, but we have possibly more severe storms coming as Ohio gets hit with the remains of that tropical storm.

Did the whole tree tip over or did it split? One time, in a house we used to live in, two trees out back blew over roots and all.
I watched it happen and the wind wasn't even that strong. The ground was saturated from a lot of rain we had been getting over the past month,
so it didn't take as much wind as it normally would.

A very large branch split off, almost a tree unto itself. Already had a tree company out here to check things out and give an estimate. Gonna be a little over $6000 to get it down and cleared up due to where it sits, but the guy said if he does things right, our insurance should cover it all. He has the same insurance company that covered the $70,000 repair to his house last year after a drunk driver drove through it.
