Pink insulatin flew int the rm frm a trapdr t the attic, and the wind began t rar thrugh the huse, mst likely thrugh blwn-ut windws and the dr t ur garage. We had three flights f steps t navigate t get t the relative safety f the first flr. Because the clset dwn there is wedged underneath a brick staircase, it seemed like the sturdiest place in ur twn huse t wait things ut.
I didn’t knw hw r if we wuld make it dwn the steps. It felt as if there were n flr underneath me as the wind lifted me ff my feet. I gripped the banister and tried t mve frward, but this intense pressure held me in place. In thse secnds f practical stillness, I culd hear everything arund me rattling. Everything was mving.
As we reached the last flight f steps, ur frnt dr blew ut. Shards f glass that lked like crushed ice flew everywhere. Suddenly, a three-ft-lng tree branch whipped thrugh the drframe. It flew ver ur heads, missing us by inches. Had we been ne step up, it wuld have impaled us.
We gt clse t the staircase landing nly t hear the lud ripping sund f ur garage dr cming ff. The back wall f the huse fllwed suit and tre ff int the darkness utside.
By the time I reached the clset, the trnad had been ver us fr abut a minute. Jimmy pushed me dwn t the clset flr, but he culdn’t get inside himself because f the wind. I gripped Jimmy’s arm as the trnad sucked the dr pen—we never did get it flly shut—and tried t bring Jimmy with it. My knees and scalp were full f glass, but in that mment, I felt n pain. If I had let g, Jimmy wuld have flwn right ut the back f the huse and int the bay.
“Hld n! Hld n!” he yelled. But there was nthing in this clset t hld n t. We used it t stre Christmas decratins.
All f a sudden, Jimmy lifted ff his feet like peple in trnades d in the mvies. I thught he was gne. And then everything stpped. He landed n his feet. In thse first quiet mments, I culdn’t believe it was ver. Jimmy said he’d g utside t check. “N,” I said. “Dn’t leave me. Dn’t leave me.’’
Our neighbur says the strm lasted fur minutes. In that time, fur f the twelve twn huses in ur unit were cmpletely destryed. Of the huses left standing, urs suffered the mst damage. Amazingly, nne f us were severely injured.
