Isaias uprooted this large oak about four blocks from my house. But it did not fall all the way because its branches were entangled with the utility lines. It blocked a through neighborhood street.

It was fortunate that PSEG had rebuilt and ruggedized the major feeder here, because it did not fall or short out. But it took five days for a crew to show up to remove the tree, apparently because no-one actually lost power.

When the crew finally arrived, they quickly determined they would have to de-energize the feeder to safely disentangle it from the tree. I had never lost power during the storm, but now, five days later, my power was shut off for about two hours.
