There were reports of hundreds of felled trees, damage to buildings, and widespread power outages as Tropical Storm Isaias passed over New York and the Tri-State area on August 4.

One man was killed by a falling tree in Queens, local reports said. In Holbrook, meanwhile, a house had a narrow escape as a large tree was felled.

Tino Pattigno III captured this footage in Holbrook. “Thankfully everyone is safe,” he wrote on Twitter.

Pattigno’s video shows only a fence was damaged by the falling tree, and soon neighbors were working to clear the site. “Proud to be apart of this Long Island community,” he said. Credit: Tino Pattigno III via Storyful
