It was a bad weather day, recently on May 5th, with the rain falling steadily over the whole afternoon, a few gusts of wind, and the tree right in front of our house came crashing down right over the fence, right across the front porch, and landed precariously over the roof of the porch, forming an archway of fallen branches and wet leaves just away from the car parked under the porch.
The whole incident was a bit of a freak as well. Aside from a few dislocated roof tiles, much of nothing else was in the path of the falling tree, and that includes the ute which was parked across the front gate with its front end butting the stump of the tree, and the chain-link fencing fronting the property.
Equally efficient was the Council, with an accident report team on the scene within half an hour, and the whole mess cleared by late evening. Looks like all is safe and well now, with only the clean-up left to be done.
