Another Tragedy in the Smokies

January 25th, 2010

The weather this weekend has been pretty brutal in Eastern TN and the Smokies. Unfortunately it took the ultimate toll yesterday when a driver was crushed to death after a tree fell on his car. The heavy rains resulted in wet ground which, combined with heavy winds, resulted in the falling tree. US 441 from Gatlinburg to Cherokee remains closed because of downed trees, limbs, and power lines.

Be careful out there folks. No matter how careful or good you may be, some things are just out of your control.
