I was outside on my screened-in porch watching a neat thuner cell coming through. My home is sourrounded about 75% by thick woods except in the front. The wind was really picking up and swirling in gusts, the tree tops were blowing violently when. All of a sudden the trees directly behind my yard opened up like the Red Sea in 10 Commandments. The 4 ringed floats, one snow disc (inflated), 3 linear floats all lifted from the pool, about 20ft. from me, and flew about 90 ft away! Our 2 person swing tipped over and slammed into the deck railing!

The storm lasted about 20 minutes and ended litterally within seconds. Back in 1984 i walked through hurricane Gloria for about an hour and this was the coolest thing I've ever whittnessed since then!
