Storms Down Trees, Power Lines

June 14, 2010

Monday afternoon storms in the North Escambia area  downed trees and power lines, but no major damage was reported.

The line of storms moving from the west to the east was responsible for numerous power outages. Trees were also reported down, including one on State Line Road between Century and Flomaton at the Flomaton Funeral Home.

Some Escambia River Electric Cooperative customers on Pineville road were reportedly still without power after 10 p.m. Monday.

    I know the weather got pretty tough yesterday, while driving on hwy 4 to Jay. The rain was so heavy, the wind was blowing so hard that I thought it was going to blow me off of the road, the trees were moving in circles, and I was praying that they didn’t come flying into my vehicle. It really reminded me of a hurricane brewing. I hope everyone has their power back on now… Thanks EREC

    Everything looks ok, just limbs and debris all over. Grass grew a few more inches overnight! House was hit by lightning but everything is working. Power was out about 3 hours. Bless EREC, they were at the church before it stopped raining.

    To my friends Mr & Mrs Middleton. Glad everybody at your house are safe.

    Hope that Walnut Hill Baptist Church wasn’t damaged when the tranformer was hit by lightning.
