Big Ass Tree Down On Woodward - Possible Power Outages.

Post by Jim O'Bryan »

Around 3:30 a large Silver Maple could take no more, and toppled over on to power lines and
other cabling on Wooward Ave. South of the I-90 South Marginal.

Image
The ground was so saturated, and the tree trimmed so badey it toppled.

Image
City Fire Crews and Police responded immediately but had to wait for the power company to cut power.

Image
You can see the typical First Energy trim job.

Official cause was over saturated ground.
