Yeah they're scary as heck. I was maybe eight at the time, so what I remember is my mom sending me to the basement while she and my brother put the windows up (back when they told people to do that) through the house, and just this unholy sound of wind and pressure.
When it was safe there were trees down everywhere, and my swingset was wrapped around a tree that still stood. It was pretty incredible.
