The wind brought two trees and a utility pole down on Roosevelt Boulevard just before the Fox Street exit.
In West Philadelphia, the wind caused another tree to fall over, this time knocking down power lines and starting a house fire. Thankfully, firefighters knocked it down fast and no one was hurt.

Despite the unusual May weather, people still ventured out in the city.. some even by bike.. but two ladies visiting from Poland weren't going to let the rain stop them from checking out the Rocky steps.
"We have two days only in Philly so we needed to go out," said Ewelina Kiarwnska who's visiting from Poland.
Dogs were a good sport in the soggy weather, some even sported a raincoat to try and keep dry.

"We still want to support all the local businesses and the restaurants we just went out got food and drinks," Price said.
