My brother was on a mountain road in California during a forest fire. He didn’t realize how close it was, and it suddenly broke through the trees along the side of the road. As he was trying to escape--i.e. driving like a madman--a large tree fell across the road behind him just as he passed, like in a movie.
Mid 1990s, winter storm, roads largely unusable, then an ice storm, trees fell over, power outage for days
