Humpday Headlines: Large Tree Falls on Nob Hill After Water Main Break
"Prop 50 did not just prevail on Tuesday, it won by double digits, as the polls predicted, leading with 65% of the vote in early returns. Many are already calling this a major victory for Gavin Newsom's political ambitions, given that he took on Texas Republicans, and Trump, and pushed this through. [Chronicle] It's expected to rain off and on all day today, with the North Bay likely to see the heaviest rainfall."
"Even before the storm arrived, a broken water main caused a 30-foot-tall ficus to topple Tuesday evening on Sacramento Street between Jones and Leavenworth streets, as pictured above. The tree fell onto an Amazon delivery van, and took out some power lines. [KRON4] A 78-year-old Santa Rosa man with nine previous DUI convictions has pleaded no contest to a tenth, from an incident in April in which he crashed his car into a ditch."

A broken water main caused a 30-foot ficus to topple onto an Amazon delivery van and downed power lines on Sacramento Street. A 78-year-old Santa Rosa man with nine prior DUIs pleaded no contest to a tenth and was sentenced to three years, the maximum allowed.
