Tree Falls on Car Moments After Couple Escapes in Lancaster

A tree crashed onto Adam Hoover’s car near Harrisburg Pike in Lancaster on Monday moments after he and his fiancée had stepped out, narrowly avoiding injury.
The incident followed severe weather that caused many trees to fall across the region and prompted the National Weather Service to issue a flood watch.
Separately, a 79-year-old woman died and a 79-year-old man sustained serious injuries when their Lexus SUV struck a fallen tree on Lancaster Pike in Wilmington late Monday night.
Hoover said, “We heard something kind of happen... then the whole tree was over top of the car that we had just been in,” and he filed an insurance claim amid a surge in storm damage reports.
The flood watch covers this afternoon and evening due to increased rain and flood threats, while power outages affected thousands Tuesday morning in Bucks County.
