Ian Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I should have done more scouting. I was actually surprised to see two large trees down so close. That was all within a block on my way to get coffee. Sounds like they are clearing stuff quick but I may hit some more sidestreets later to see what else I can find.

I live in the same neighborhood and saw the tree on Connecticut Ave that you had a photo of. There was another one down further up towards Van Ness(which has been cleared) and I saw one down on a couple of cars between Upton and Tilden streets. Also some significant tree damage on Tilden going towards Rock Creek Park/Beach Drive. Would have taken pictures but didn't have a camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Druff Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 more just from 2 neighborhoods I was out for a drive from here down to the area around St. Mary's Hospital and then I came back via River Rd and whole sections of town look like this, Midlo. I will say it's not as bad as it could have been, but this area took it on the chin pretty good. Especially considering most of the mets around here spent a week telling us it "wouldn't be that bad".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Sick pics, midlo. I should ask you to take a cruise down Jahnke Rd as that is where my wife's 95 yr old grand dad lives off of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeRedheads Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Midlo-with all of those power lines affected, I imagine it will take days to get the power up. Unbelievable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midlo Snow Maker Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Midlo how do you think that could possibly compare to Bethesdaboy's experience--some roof shingles fell off. HE TOOK IT ON THE CHIN. how can multiple houses in your 'hood with giant trees on them compare? where is your sense of compassion, man? ON THE CHIN. oh, the humanity. Wow! Looks like you caught the earthquake too. Midlo-with all of those power lines affected, I imagine it will take days to get the power up. Unbelievable! still 321,000 without i am very lucky. the jet engine sounding down burst that just pounds the top of the trees is unforgettable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianonymous Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Irene took out the pine tree, and split a tree in the backyard in half.. Powerline is 2 feet off the road, but still pushing electrons. I'm baffled by that aspect. Spent all day with a chainsaw. BGE says that since it has power, they may not get to it for a week. Even with it dangling down. We have the road shutdown here with trashcans and caution tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
