Downed tree damages trailer, displaces family in Germantown
Fire officials in Montgomery County say no injuries were reported. Strong winds have been increasing in the D.C. region, with gusts reaching up to 60 and 65 mph. In Germantown, a downed tree smashed into a trailer home and knocked out power, causing one family to be displaced. The National Weather Service (NPS) has issued safety advice for individuals stuck outside during high-wind events, including taking cover next to a building or under a shelter, avoiding dangerous areas where the wind could push them. If a power line falls, call for help from their local utility emergency center instead of attempting to free it or remove the debris.
