Northern KY/Cincinnati area. Winds gusted up to 70 MPH or so for hours. I've never seen wind like that here and for that long. There are lots of trees down on my land. About 600,000 are without power now, including my house since about 1:30pm yesterday. :(

Here are 3 videos I took on my Fuji F30 from the safe area in the middle of the field.

    Was it a depression or Tropical storm as it moved over KY? Looks intense.

    Last I heard it was a tropical depression at that point. News today said gusts were up to 75 MPH. I've never seen it this bad. Now the power company is saying they had something like 900,000 customers out of service at some point. It's sitting at 596,000 out right now.
