Tree damage from today's storm

[ron_newman]

This afternoon's storm ripped down a sidewalk tree on Day Street near Herbert, in front of the metered parking lot. Just a bit of the trunk remains in the ground; the rest of the tree is lying on the sidewalk now.

I've often seen tree damage in that location after storms. I hate to say it, but maybe the city should give up trying to plant a tree there.

What other damage have people seen today around Somerville?

Edit: If the damage is on city property such as streets, sidewalks, utility poles, and sewers, please report it to the city by calling 311 as well as posting here.

I saw two trees partially blocking the street on Powderhouse Blvd. this morning. There were also 8 (eight!) NStar trucks and 1 Verizon truck parked in Ball Square when I drove through around 8:30 A.M.

Last night, there was a gas leak on College Avenue, and the Tufts Convenience Store was partially without power.

And I don't have a dial tone on my landline phones.

What a lot of damage from such a brief storm!
