Fortunately, the falling trees did not damage homes.

Karl Frank is thankful for that. 

"You could hear another crack a little bit. Then about another 30 seconds, you hear another crack and it got louder you know. I was like oh that’s probably that tree," he said. "Open the door and sure enough here it is laying in the front yard. Thankfully it went this way and not toward the house."
