Southland Winds Burst Over Weekend Damage
Severe gusts felled 295 trees across Los Angeles County and San Joaquin Valley, toppling a 130 foot utility tower and destroying one unoccupied structure in Elysian Park area. Power lines snapped causing blackouts and some phone outages while automatic switching kept Los Angeles power losses minimal. Weather Service notes an unusually dry Santa Ana pattern driven by a strong high pressure system, with winds easing to 20 30 mph and cooling midweek. In Bonn, West German Foreign Minister Walter Scheel and his wife incurred minor injuries when their official car struck a taxi, killing the taxi driver and injuring a passenger.
