Due to a quick forming storm, with high winds, several trees and wires have fallen. Please avoid using Flower Avenue and Jackson Avenue as the roads are being temporarily blocked off. A tree has fallen on a house in the 7400 block of Flower Avenue and wires are down. No one was hurt.
Also, the northbound and southbound lanes of Carroll Avenue near Long Branch Parkway have been temporarily shut down due to a tree that has fallen across the roadway.
Pepco has been called in to take care of the wires and the State Highway Administration has been called to remove the trees.
Updates will follow.
