Thunderstorm winds blew down several trees and numerous tree limbs in Germantown and just east of Beckemeyer. One of the trees fell onto an occupied vehicle in Germantown causing major damage. Fortunately, the driver was not injured. A small porch roof on a mobile home in Germantown was lifted up over the mobile home and landed against the neighboring mobile home.
