Keely Chalmers, KGW News-8 9:23 PM PST January 7,2019 's Those who live on Southwest 92nd Avenue in Tigard will tell you,there's normally not a lot of action going on. But following Saturday night's windstorm,there's something new neighbors are talking about: a 150-foot pine tree that is now leaning over the street. The windstorm blew it partially over. PGE crews were out strapping the tree to a nearby tree as neighbors watched. All are hoping crews can take down the tree without disrupting power.
