Floral City residents are breathing a sigh of relief after a strong storm rolled through Sunday afternoon.

  • Strong storm caused damage Sunday afternoon
  • Car, home damaged
  • No one hurt

A tree smashed a car, landing between two people sitting up front at about 4 p.m. It doesn't get much closer than that.

Westerberg, a neighbor, said the two people that were inside were OK.

“They said that the doors opened from the impact, but they were able to get out,” she said.

Several other large trees also came crashing down. One of them damaged a home.

“The gust of wind came out of nowhere,” Westerberg said.

Westerberg's son, Joshua, watched a tree fall in front of their home.

“The only loud noise was the tree cracking before it fell,” he said.

“I thank God that we are all OK and no other damage was done,” Westerberg said.
