Tree collapse: 60-foot oak blocks southwest Atlanta road

Fallen trees and power lines are causing significant hazards in Southwest Atlanta as ice continues to accumulate. Local officials have identified trees as the most vulnerable infrastructure during this storm. On Children's Drive, a 60-foot tree collapsed across the roadway, severing power lines and completely blocking traffic. While the downed line has extinguished street lights, nearby residential power remains largely unaffected in that specific area. Georgia Power crews and local law enforcement are currently on-site managing the dangerous scene.
