The girl ran outside with her little sister and saw the towering silver maple tree from their neighbour’s front yard had fallen onto their house. “It’s dangerous for the house beside us, it’s dangerous for our house and it’s also very dangerous for anyone driving or walking or biking by,” she said. Omidvar’s neighbour’s house is in even worse shape, the tree having punctured a sizable hole in the roof. Workers from Toronto Hydro and the city’s forestry department have assessed the tree, along with Toronto Fire Services, Omidvar said. “Crews continue to respond to calls related to damage caused by Friday's wind storm and are assessing the extent of this damage,” Arbour said.
