...TREES TOPPLING DUE TO SATURATED GROUND...
The recent heavy rainfall of the last several days has left the
ground extremely saturated. This is causing many trees to topple
even with little or no wind. If you live in or drive through
wooded areas, remain especially alert for the potential of downed
trees. Consider altering your route or staying in the interior of
the lowest level of your home or office to avoid weakened trees
that may fall tonight and tomorrow.

...TOPPLED TREES DUE TO SATURATED GROUND...
Saturated ground will cause some trees to become uprooted and fall
overnight tonight as additional heavy rain moves into the area.
Be prepared for roadways to become blocked by downed trees, and
consider staying in the interior part of your home overnight,
especially if you live in a home surrounded by trees.
