Here is a picture. When I cleared away the small stuff and debris the branch that came down on the tractor was about 4-5" diameter and landed exactly between the air cleaner and the gas cap, just in front of gauges and on the edge of gas tank. A much larger branch landed on the fence in front of the tractor and the fence boards shattered but the cross members held the branch up. It was a good ten inches in diameter. When I cut the smaller branch off the tractor I found out how lucky I got. No dent, not even a scratch. The mason jar and gauges even survived the hit. Have the charger on the battery now. Will move her out from under as soon as I can. Big relief. The house did not fare so well. Punched a hole in one garage door. Garage roof looks OK but the back gutter is crunched. Done for today and I managed not to get too beat up.
