Several homes had heavy damage from falling trees and many had roof damage from strong winds. One person was injured when falling trees demolished 1 house. The extensive root structure of the huge trees ripped up concrete sidewalks and gas lines in the area and utility poles were snapped off. Start: 33.49/-86.91 End: 33.50/-86.87
