The Big One: No house, no car, no boot

Posted by Matthias under: daily + anecdotes; boats; Matthias (ES); meteorology; Photo + Video.

Well, not so bad because it's not, the house still there ... albeit with a hole in the bedroom 2qm roof ...

Today, we once again "The Great" taken the storm with wind speed 10 +, all of 2-4 years for the skin. Normally we are very well protected, so there is only about a 10 degree angle in which we storms from the SW can wear anything, today I was off times, at 120 km / h, it has a smooth breath away ... :

In front of my house are all pine umgefallen, a roof has caught my bedroom (but no structural damage), several cars (including an old from me) is anything, and my boat hats also rumgedreht (including, as far as I can see, motor-mast - Rig and loss).

Worst hats a Frenchman caught here, the (stupid!) Wanted to save his boat and the same then the fatal skull has taken (at the same place I was 8 years ago in the water with a Zodiac on me, but I was lucky and someone asked me just in rausgezogen).

Well, here is a stretch pictures, because I know that many foreign friends of mine have a look, the picture title only partly in English (they are simple, you understand them) ...
