Our road was impassable but a bunch of neighbor guys got together and cut the tree. It was on power lines though, so they did not move it, just cut out the middle segment.
All night we saw bright orange flashes from arcing transformers! Its because the trees had too any leaves still on them and the snow was the wet heavy kind, so it uprooted trees and broke huge limbs! |
I don't know much/anything about powerlines, but if they cut the tree, would that not have also caused them a potential problem had the line been active?
