Bristol Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Healthy pine tree split near the base, leaning on power line.
Tree damage and power lines down.
Law enforcement officials reported power lines and poles down.
One of a series of 7 50-foot power poles were struck by high winds, causing a cascade effect with the other 6 falling shortly thereafter, onto State Route 15, just south of Bristol. Occupants of 5 vehicles were trapped for a few hours while power lines were de-energized. A car was reported to have been set on fire as a result of the live wires. One of the drivers reported seeing the pole begin to fall, which resulted in him speeding up to avoid the pole. However a pole immediately ahead of him began falling as well, causing him to swerve into a corn field. Less than a mile away form the downed poles, a dump truck loaded with dirt rolled over in a ditch. It is unknown if this is due to strong winds or attempting to avoid the upcoming downed poles. A tree fell onto a car a mile east of the downed poles, crushing the roof and windshield. No injuries were reported with any of the accidents.
Trees were reported down in the city of Middlebury. Numerous trees were sheared off eight feet above the ground north of Bristol. Power lines were also blown down along State Route 15.
