With wind gusts exceeding 100 mph, there was some serious damage done, including 5 1/2 hours without power. We have a gas stove so we made hot soup for our neighbors. This is our third Sierra winter and certainly today was the most unique yet.
We went for a walk, just to see it all. Several homes in our neighborhood had trees fall.
Our mailman told us of this devastating damage done to St. Theresa's Church, just around the corner from us.
While there, dozens of people came by to take photos.
While we were out, we received a text from Betty saying that a tree next to her cabin fell, taking down a power line. When we returned, this is what we found... the power line is still dangling in the street. This is crazy and exciting. Wow.

Oh my! That was really nerve wracking. To have that kind of stuff hitting your home, then waking up to the impact of it all. It's cases like that that makes the cutting of nearby trees, or at least their pruning, not only a choice but a necessity. Anyway, best of luck to you folks and always keep safe.
