I road up and down Chestnut Lane and could Not find 160. I did notice a slightly leaning tree across from 60 Chestnut lane but it's leaning towards the woods not the primary lines.
I will notify The U.I., but their lines are not in danger

OMG! Drive up / North on Chestnut Lane. # 160 is the last house on the left, before you reach the top of the hill. As you approach it, look up the road to the top of the tree line on left side, and you can see the crown of the dead oak leaning through the live, green tree tops supporting it, as it leans toward the road, and the power lines that cross from left to right just under it. Get just uphill of that dead crown, look off the road about 15’ to the left, and you’ll see the shattered trunk, in even more precarious shape that when I first posted pictures at the end of June.
I described EXACTLY where it was in my first post.
Yes, the power lines are most definitely at risk!
