Heavy winds damage infrastructure, schools, neighborhoods Payton Anderson, Senior Staff Writer March 14, 2023
![As Palo Alto continues to struggle through a storm that began Monday night, neighborhoods throughout the city, including scenes on Emerson Street, are suffering from the damage of fallen trees and powerlines caused by the storm. Students across the Palo Alto High School campus, including junior Rori Escudero, faced a power outage as a result of the harsh storm, forcing many classrooms to adapt to their new environment without Internet and light. “I was in AP Lang and we [Escudero’s class] had to change our plans because of the power outage,” Escudero said. “We have hand sanitizer on every table so we put our flashlights under the hand sanitizer for light.” (Photo: Kristine Lin)](https://palyvoice.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Screen-Shot-2023-03-14-at-9.44.50-PM-900x503.png)
