Derecho "Inland Hurricane" Aftermath Marion, Illinois- part 1 / 5

We went driving around Marion a day after the storm and saw some things that looked just as though a hurricane came through. Well even though it was a 90mph wind storm that came through, the storm looked like a hurricane on radar images. When I first saw the destruction after school I thought a tornado had came through but realized it couldn't have been a tornado since the damage was everywhere in Marion, and surrounding areas. Carbondale had a wind gust of 106mph!!!
