Franklin Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Two foot diameter live trees and power lines were reported down due to damaging thunderstorm wind gusts near the intersection of North Main and Adams Streets.
Thunderstorm winds knocked trees into roads, houses, and utility lines. Power lines fell into a tree along Maple Lane where they started sparking before slipping onto a fence. A power surge resulted, shorting out five power boxes outside of homes along the lane. All of the homes were filled with smoke before firefighters got the situation under control. Each box required a technician to make repairs, and the damage should run between $200 and $800 per home. Elsewhere, trees crashed onto a vehicle on Adams Street in Franklin. Fallen trees blocked Houghham Street in Franklin and North County Road 800 East outside of Franklin, where a utility pole caught on fire.
A trained spotter reported a small tree down near State Road 44 and Main Street near the Courthouse. Power was out at US 31 and North Main Street.
A home's water heater caught fire due to a power surge caused by lightning.
Trees, power lines, and at least one stoplight were downed by thunderstorm winds. One tree fell into power lines. These lines started a fire which damaged a residence.
