A massive tree limb crashed down without warning around noon today, damaging slightly the attic space and roof of a group house. A live power-line blocks the street. Firefighters responded within minutes. Seattle City Light showed up about 30 minutes after the tree-fall. Power remains on at the moment (12:40).
Thanks for the report. I’ll see what else I can find out. We’ve covered falling branches coinciding with hot weather before —

Don’t know if that’s what happened here.
13th is re-opened (1:30p). A City Light truck came and snipped some of the draping wires.
