BROCKTON, MASS. (WHDH) - Into the night on Thursday, construction crews worked to make temporary repairs to a home where a tree sliced through a second floor bedroom.
Some of the branches landed right on the homeowners bed.
Donna Gurney was visiting a relative and arrived home, stunned at the extent of the damage.
“Put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into that house, said Gurney, ” it doesn’t look the same now.
Gurney said the tree is not on her property and has complained to the city of Boston.
Thursday’s high winds also caused a tree to crash into a home on Mavern Terrace in Newton.
In Waltham a tree hit the side of a home and landed on a fence.
In Woburn another one brought down power lines on Parker Street.
And the whipping winds didn’t bring just trees down. In Tyngsboro, they helped spread a fire which began in the brush behind a construction company.
