On Thursday afternoon just before school was let out for the day, 70-mile-per-hour winds blew over a very large oak tree across Center Street in Etna. We all are so grateful and counting our blessings that no one was harmed. Quick response times from Etna Police, Fire, Ambulance, and Fort Jones Fire Department had the scene secure as power lines were also knocked down.. minutes later this route is used by the school buses to pick up the kids from elementary school, and students walking home.
