The storm may be over, but the cleanup is just beginning in Rockland County.
Crews from Orange & Rockland Utilities are hard at work across the county and on Jenkins Avenue in Stony Point. A fallen tree caused some damage to cars and the corner of a house. Fortunately, there were no injuries. Residents in the area are without power until repairs are completed, which News 12 has been told could take a few hours.
In another area, a tree snapped in half and was pressing down on wires on Bayview Drive. Utility crews were also seen working there to restore power and clear the debris.
