A Florida golf club was the center of a horrific storm this week as the following counties were all under a tornado watch: Sarasota, Collier, Lee, Charlotte, Glades, Hendry, Desoto, and Highlands counties, according to the National Weather Service.
Wind gusted up to 40 mph, while the storms brought frequent lightning, hail, and localized flooding.
Most of the damage centralized around the Eagle Ridge Golf Club in Fort Myers, where residences surrounding the golf course sustained a significant amount of damage, and in some cases required full roofing repairs.
While some residents and workers immediately started the cleaning process, others thought it was a perfect day to get 18 holes in.
Here are some photos from the area soon after the storm settled.
