Wind + Soggy Ground = Trees falling over

Well in my case.  The tree landed on my house.  Last night the winds were up around 55 mph.  Almost felt like I was in a hurricane.  Then about 1:00 AM I heard the loudest thud on the roof of the house that I have ever heard.  Quickly after that the entire house shook .  I almost felt like I was back in Los Angeles.  Stuff went flying off the walls, kids freaking out.  Fun stuff.  I pretty much had a good idea of what happened, but had no idea what the extent of the damage was.  I looked out the window, with no lights I could not see anything.  I suited up for a -1 degree wind chill and looked out back and lo-and-behold what did I see?

Isn't that crazy?  The bedroom that it landed above is mine and if that roof didn't hold up.. well.  Lets just say typing wouldn't have been so easy today. 

I'm so thankful that it wasn't worse.  Still a jaw dropping experience for me!  Especially when everyone, even the house made out OK!
