Pretty neat video. Only comment was surprised the windmills were still turning. Around here they lock them down before storms but could of been totally caught off guard.
It was stopped until the wind overcame the brakes.
I didn’t watch the above link so maybe it’s the same one but I watched a video last night of one taking a direct hit and thought it was odd that it didn’t spin very much right before it got hit. Then I realized the one next to it was spinning the opposite direction as that one and figured the brakes were probably being overridden.
