Well our Trampoline took a ride about 40 yard flight over our backyard fence into the kudzu and our opposite fence got bent over like 20 degrees... The wind legit in Paulding/Polk area heard plenty of trees down
My parents live in New Hope just outside of Dallas and they have the top halves of trees just snapped off laying in their yard. Some were nice sized trees
 
Horrible storm here earlier this afternoon. Trees down everywhere. Tops snapped off everywhere. Road blocked with trees down everywhere. Neighbors trampoline flew threw the yard. I had a old refrigerator behind my building. It ended up about 50 yards away in my neighbors yard. Had to be 60-70+ plus winds and just under golf ball size hail for at least 10 minutes straight. Power still on and no damage to the house or vehicles but not everyone was as lucky in the area. Just seemed like it was the worst from 74 bypass just south down 221 to the SC state line. North of 74 bypass it nothing but a few rain drops. One of the worst I've seen in the last 20 or so years. Used to get these storms in March-May now July-August seems to be the new severe season as of late and we are cool and below normal during the spring. On to the cleanup tomorrow.
