That is a major problem with hurricanes are the tornados they spawn. I
could have swore some of the wind we had howling around here sounded a lot
like tornadoes.

Beth,
Sounds almost like tornado damage. We don't get a lot of tornadoes in WY,
but the two I've been in town for hit one neighborhood, but missed others.
One hit just the edge of town, and the only building it took out was a
church. The pastor of that church was having an affair with the wife of my
dad's partner in surgical practice, so we said that it was G-d's retribution
(Meier, is that the correct way to make that reference so I don't offend
people of the orthodox Jewish faith?).

Your speaking to the choir here.
Oh, We've survived Jeanne with more shingles and debris in the yard.
Only 8
hours without power and phone so, we did much better than most. Friends in
Pt St. Lucie all got hit pretty bad with days without power and phone (yes,
even land lines go down during the hurricane, no power, no switches).
My
Dad's house (pre-Andrew), is totalled now, he and his wife are in shock.
Other friends near Disney have inside wall damage with some flooding in
house.
Some neighborhoods are eerily intact, others show lots of damage.
