San Francisco crews said Wednesday they are assessing and cleaning up the citywide damage caused by Tuesday's high winds and rain, including hundreds of fallen trees, power outages and major traffic disruptions.
Stormy conditions not only caused property damage, like glass and debris falling from high-rise buildings or 700 fallen trees and limbs -- it also resulted in two deaths.
At the storm's peak, 35,000 customers lost power around the city, including facilities like the Public Works Yard and trailers for unsheltered people at Pier 94. Over 8,000 customers remain without power as of late Wednesday morning, according to the city. Crews from the San Francisco Department of Public Works have reopened one westbound and two eastbound lanes on the Third Street Bridge and intended to have all lanes open by later Wednesday. The eastbound pathway will remain closed until further assessment, according to the city.
Streets around the 300 block of Mission Street remain closed as city building inspectors assess a fallen window from a high rise.
