A tree fell on a house in Perry, Florida, as Hurricane Idalia made landfall on Wednesday 30 August.

In a video shared on Facebook by resident Olivia Gregg, one downed tree can already be seen out of the window, before two more fall in the wind, with the second crashing into the home.

“Tree hit the house a little while ago. My immediate neighbours have massive trees on their houses as well,” Gregg wrote.

“We are ok.”

Idalia made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend as a Category 3 storm on Wednesday, with wind speeds topping 125 mph.
