    Last Night’s Storm Damage/Road Closures

    Decatur Metro | April 5, 2011

    Hooo doggie!  That was one heck of a storm last night!  Lots of branches down and roads blocked and/or closed.

    My wife reported that Drexel Ave was taped off by Decatur PD early this morning.  Also Mara wrote in…

    Good morning! In case you’re reporting on last night’s apocalypse damage/carnage: as of 7AM today, Scott Circle between Wendan and Brengare was blocked by a downed tree, and, further on into the neighborhood, a power pole was down across Desmond just before Clairmont.

    Patch reports that East Howard, Lamont and Winnona Drive were also blocked at one point.  Also, another reader points out that according to the CSD website, College Heights is closed today due to a power outage.

    OMG…

    SpiketheCat posted this jaw-dropping pic from the MAK District on Twitter.

    My best to the owners.  I just hope no one was home and everyone is OK.

    Wow.  I’m really impressed the tree didn’t fall completely thru the house.
