It was very odd. I was not home at the time. We were having freaky weather with Marine warnings all day. One minute it would get nasty then patches of blue sky and calm. When I came home I never even went in the backyard. When I finally did an area of about 10 x 10 feet square was hit. It ripped a pool screen that bordered one side. Never touched anything before or beyond. Ten feet away I have Orinocos and they were fine. It took an umbrella that was in a stand pulled it out of the stand (we have weights on it) ripped it up and threw it over our gazebo. I had a small extension ladder holding up my Mona Lisa stalk. The Mona Lisa was blown over and the ladder was 25 feet away in my neighbors yard. I also found a plastic lawn chair in my sugar cane at about 6 feet high from my neighbors yard. I didn't even see that for two days. Very weird. My son was home at the time and he never knew it happened.
