 | | Damage At KCTCS | | The WebMeister took these photos Monday morning at the Bowling Green Technical School facility (KCTCS) on State Ave. between the Community Hospital and the State Hospital. Overnight, around 3:00am, a tree fell near their main building. It broke some windows and fell on an outbuilding housing outdoor equipment. It also fell right on power and other utility lines and snapped off a utility pole about 20 feet off the ground.
In the photos above, the upper left shows the line was still hot when
it hit the ground. Notice how the ground is scorched from the arcing? Upper
right shows the broken, upper section of the pole still hanging in the air,
supported by its lines and adjacent trees. The lower photos show the fallen
tree and a close-up of where it hit the buildings. EPB
crews were on hand as well as Jerry's Bucket Service for repair work. They
removed the downed tree and the broken pole, replaced the damaged pole and
ran new lines to restore service.
