Default We're gonna get hammered

Weather Underground radar is showing a major storm cell bearing down on my neck of the woods. It'll probably hit in about an hour. You folks to the south of me have probably got more time before anything gets there.

It's the hail that freaks me out, not having a garage for the S. Lived in TX once upon a time managing a rental fleet. Man, we got cars returned looking like they'd been sitting out on a driving range. All from hail.

Depends on the trees. We're paying $2800 to have 4 pines cut down at our VT house however they are >100ft tall each and have power lines through them.

thats crazy. I had an estimate to get 7 trees cut down all around my house 3200$!!!

granted the 3 near the driveway are right near powerlines and a few of them are hanging over the house. hence im hiring someone to do it. TREES
