Medford, Ore., — The heavy, wet snow, proved too much for many trees and branches across the region.
Crews worked all night and morning to clear debris.
This is what it looked like this afternoon at Blue Spruce Mobile Park in Medford.
A tree fell, blocking the road.
It wasn’t the only tree in the area that fell, individual branches were falling all morning as well.
“What happens is the tissue in the tree, when it gets frozen, and with as much snow and ice on them, they just snap.” said Will Danielson, owner of Advanced Tree Service and Landscaping.
Danielson says to always check trees in your area even if you think they are healthy, as it may help prevent breakage like this in the future.
