Only injury in the neighborhood was an elderly man that was in his travel trailer in his driveway when the winds flipped it over.  They had to cut a hole in its roof to get him out.  He just got a bump on his head.

Glad to hear you made it through.

What in the hell was the neighbor doing in the trailer anyways?
Did it happen suddenly?

Don't know what he was doing.  He can barely get around.

Suddenly?  Very much so, we didn't have the TV or radio on and there are no tornado warning sirens up here in Yankeeland (all cities down South have them), so were not aware a bad storm was coming.  Five minutes earlier the sun was shining and was just a dark cloud on the horizon.
