"About 10 o'clock last night, winds started blowing, lost power. I thought just the transformer blew, but it turned out the tree fell on the house, ripped down the electrical wires," said the homeowner. "I didn't even realize something fell... It was so windy and you heard hail. I didn't know a tree came down until I went to go out the front door and I couldn't open the front door."
