Widespread damage from high winds raked South Greene Thursday
afternoon and damage was still being assessed this morning by the county's road
crews.
Between 20 and 30 roads in the area had been blocked, or partially blocked, by fallen
trees and other debris, said County Road Superintendent David Weems.
At least 740 customers
of Greeneville Light & Power System were without power at 4 p.m. Thursday, according to
GL&PS general manager Bill Carroll.
Most of the heaviest wind damage appeared to be in
the South Greene, Greystone, Camp Creek and Sunnyside areas, Weems said.
Strong winds were
also being experienced in Greeneville.
