Broken tree on the wires.

It's burning the tree a bit.

Get National Grid, Rhode Island Energy out here.

00:51

And advise them they're also going to need a tree crew.

Thank you.

01:01

Bye bye.

Engine four, is the energy, is the electric still on in that neighborhood?

01:14

Can't tell if it's on down past it.

01:20

Wire itself is still hot.

01:24

Very good.

01:33

It's definitely pressing in.

01:36

It continues to burn and bring down more of the tree on it.

Again, put enough tension on it to snap it.

All right, very good, Captain.

Captain, now an energy is inquiring, is the road passable?

02:07

Rode in, but I wouldn't put anything under it for too long.

02:13

All right, good.
