Many New Jersey residents woke up Monday morning to damage caused by intense winds that occurred Sunday night.
In Paramus, homeowners on Hobart Road had a very large tree come crashing down on the front of their home. The husband was downstairs at the time, but he was not hurt. The inside of the home was also undamaged.
“There’s a branch broken on the window, so it didn’t go through the window,” says Rose Latawiec.
The tree crushed part of the roof and gutter, as Sunday night’s storm was fast and furious. 
“A lot of rain real quickly, then it stopped, but then we heard the wind,” says Rich Siu.
Just across the street, a large pine tree was snapped in half. 
“The whole thing was over in just a couple of minutes, but you know it was really intense,” says Rachel Shacher. “My kids were a little nervous.”
There were no injuries to report.
