Map: LINES DOWN, ROADS BLOCKED

More roads blocked by downed lines and trees this morning. Crews worked a second wave of storm-damage calls Saturday morning:
1. A low-hanging power line across Front Beach Road near a condo complex, with power out in the area and barricades up (around 8 AM).

2. Downed power lines blocking Fernwood Street (around 7:45 AM). 3. A tree on a power line blocking Porter Drive (around 7:55 AM). 4. Lines down near Kirby Street just south of 11th Street, with another line across Kelsey (around 8 AM).

5. A tree in the road in the 800 block of Maple Avenue (around 8 AM). 6. An officer blocking traffic at Highway 98 and Brown Avenue for a damaged telephone pole (around 8 AM). Power is out in spots across the county, so treat dark signals as four-way stops and give crews plenty of room.

Preliminary scanner traffic – not official reports.
