You probably experienced a large tornado. Well there is no such thing as an inland hurricane in Illinois. A hurricane occurs in portions of the oceans that are in contact with the eastern and western United States and has a large eye with an organized rotation.

I was in this inland hurricane and I think the weather forecasters say it was a 3.5 hurricane WITH tornadoes and straightline winds over 100 miles per hour. I'm sorry for your plight. My brother's home has 2 trees on it, and they have not figured out where the trees are from yet. We still have power lines laying on the ground in some parts of town. We are all ok here, but it has been a bad one. We probably have over $15000 in damage and loss. There are flood warnings out right now on the emergency alerts.

But it was still a derecho. Derechoes are very common in the mid-west region. It’s classified as a derecho even though it did develop to appear to look like a hurricane. But it was still a derecho.
