On Neely Street in Oviedo, a massive tree is laying in the yard after being knocked over and it actually took the grass with it.
This is not the only area where the storms and heavy winds left some people with damage to clean up.
In Apopka, winds blew down tree limbs and damaged fences and archways.
At one Apopka home, wind snapped a tree in half and then blew it onto the back of a house.
Faith Morse says she was scrambling to get her siblings' bikes in from the front yard when the rain started coming down.
"I was pretty surprised when I saw the whole thing was down in our backyard," Morse said. "My mind was actually focused on keeping my little sister's calm, because they were screaming and going crazy."
