ROCHESTER, N.Y. — As a cold front pushes strong winds through the Rochester region on Friday morning, we’re tracking property damage and power outages.
In Hilton, a tree fell onto a home and destroyed a fence on Sherwood Drive. News10NBC saw a Hilton Fire Department truck at the scene, working to clear the tree. People were inside the home, but no one was hurt. RG&E was called because power was still on in the home.
In addition, strong winds caused several utility poles to topple on Frisbee Road, Greece Police have confirmed. Crews responded to the downed wires and poles around 1:30 a.m. Fire officials say the wires weren’t live. By the time News10NBC arrived at the scene, the road was clear.
