Here in So. Cal. we have been having a rather strong storm (for us). In my small neighborhood about ten, 60ft. trees have been knocked over right at the roots. Anyway, one of these trees fell on my side street ( I live on a corner lot). I got a call at church from my son that the tree had fallen on my Studebaker!
Thankfully a 6" log style fence post kept all but a few branches off the car. We were able to roll it out and saw no signs of damage. Who would have thought that putting that fence post right..., "there" 15 years ago would have saved my Studebaker. A few hours after we got the Studebaker moved the tree dropped another 5 feet or so. Surely it would have been crushed!
I still have a number of trees that are in danger of falling. Hopefully they will hold. I have my "fleet" of cars scatter in treeless sections of the neighborhood.
