Hey (name withheld), this is (name withheld) here in Harnett County.
00:02
I was traveling from Sanford back to the QTH here, and just north of Carolina Trace, there's power lines and not the poles, but the power lines and several trees that are laid across it.
00:15
Law enforcement is on scene now.
00:16
That was about 10 min ago.
00:24
Okay, so at approximately 05:30 PM, you observed trees across the power lines.
00:31
Crew is on site.
00:33
And can you give me the location of what either road and the closest cross street?
00:42
Okay, the closest cross street would be Walker Street, and it'd be North Carolina Highway 87 about one half mile north of Carolina Trace.
00:50
01:00
Okay, and so is the tree down actually on North Carolina Highway 87?
01:07
Negative, it's just the power lines and the trees in that area are offset enough that it doesn't affect the road.
01:14
It's just got some power outages going on and the lights are out at Carolina Trace and Walker.
01:21
Well, that's no fun.
01:23
Okay, so trees and power lines down, but not on the road.
01:27
On North Carolina Highway 87, one half mile north of Carolina Trace, with the closest cross street of Walker Street, and this is Harnett County.
01:37
Negative, this is Lee.
01:39
Thank you, Lee County, appreciate that.
01:43
Okay, and you didn't observe the actual damage happen.
01:50
You're reporting that you observed the damage after it occurred.
01:55
Roger. Roger, yeah, I went into town before it all hit and everything to go get something to eat.
02:02
All righty, great report.
02:04
Thank you so much. If you see other damage, give me a call back and appreciate this excellent report.
02:09
I'll make sure the NWS has it.
02:12
Yeah, Roger, Roger.
02:13
They may already have it through the emergency services, but
02:17
we're to get back up with that.
02:19
Anyway, thanks for (name withheld) for being there, and I'm going to be at the PCH for the rest of evening.
02:24
AI four, yes, back to net.
02:26
Okay, it won't hurt if they get it double.
02:29
I don't know that they have gotten it or at least maybe they haven't put it out yet.
02:33
But we'll make sure it gets in there one way or the other.
02:35
Thank you, (name withheld).
