Yeah, wind gusts can be deadly even without tornado rotation. Think of that tent collapse at the retreat north of the city last summer, or the stage collapse a while back at Big Valley Jamboree. And you don't see those gusts coming.
It didn't get that bad in my neighbourhood (although it was strong enough to knock around garbage bins), but I'm guessing it was showing up as a potential in their forecasts.
