ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — The strong winds early Friday morning took down hundreds of trees across Western New York, including one in front of Carlos Bell’s front yard. Around 2 a.m. he jumped off the couch.
“I was watching TV and then I heard something go boom!” Said Carlos.
In his 22 years at that house in Rochester, he never expected this would be the tree to come down just a few feet away from a parked car. There were others on the same street were not so lucky.
A Cadillac and a Honda were hit with a large branch from a tree. The branch was quickly removed from the road, but for the owners of the cars, there will be some major work required to recover the vehicles.
