Why the heck would they go to a landfill?

Way too much wood to process or salvage for any purpose. It is truly hard to imagine and you have to lay eyes on the amount of wood to fathom it. I was deployed during Hugo for several weeks, and this damage is much worse than what I saw at that time.

The scale of loss is hard to grasp.

On paper 900 hp hanging there. Hope 1/2 of them rotate prop opposite the others, side stear can be dangerous when all rotate the same.
You can see the props are pitched in opposite directions, I wouldn’t want the fuel bill on that thing! I’m guessing less than a mile a gallon, and it can probably burn that in a minute! Lol

I got a call of a brushfire getting out of hand IMG_20241006_155237.jpgIMG_20241006_155958.jpg
This water tank had several hundred gallons in it so i opened it up and flooded the hillside IMG_20241006_160049.jpgIMG_20241006_160728.jpg
Then everyone put the other side outIMG_20241006_160658.jpg
Probably three football fields sized the wind really made it take off.

Black walnut leaves are mostly gone.
Our Black Walnut tree is still loaded with leaves and loaded with walnuts. The past few years we only got a handful of walnuts on it and this year is is dumping them! Making homemade betadine with it. A friend here has an English Walnut on his tree, says that it typically produces 400-500 lbs of walnuts a year, this year, nothing on it.

Hit a low in town of 41° cooler here in the valley next to the creek overnight. Bald cypress will drop needles soon

It's about 12", works well on non woody 8ft tall weeds, or green woody stems up to 1/2", except pushing cut weeds that big after they fall on the shaft is difficult. It's heavy and can vibrate a lot from not having a large diameter steel mid section, but it is precision balanced.

Had to improvise some ramps to keep the chipper electronics happy.

We got soaked, but it was pretty afterward.
