Then the wind came, and we immediately went down in the basement, and in the aftermath, we came back up, and we looked around at the home farm first, and it was a mess. And then we my daughter lived down the road, we went by her place, and it got hit by the storm before, so the barn on that roof, or the roof on that barn, blew totally off. So we're waiting to get that fixed now. Last night this one blew off, so we have some people come to take a look at it today."Smith said the direction of the debris field shows the wind hit the barn's corner directly.Despite the damage, Smith said the cleanup is underway."I was happy to see the rain, but today we do have time to clean up.
