JD, In 2011 I had the same problem. Straight winds damaged two homes and 3 garages. Trees put sky lights in the houses and garages. Pulled electric service down.
I hauled 25 dump trailer loads of branches to a place that grinds them up for mulch because my insurance wouldn't pay for any trees not on buildings. I also had tree trimmer remove the trees on the houses.
