GREENVILLE – As the first wave of severe weather moved its way through the area on Saturday, several residents on the southwest side of Greenville lost power after a large tree fell on Oakwood Street, taking down utility poles and power lines.

Strong winds and rain will continue throughout the night. The Wind Advisory is set to expire at 6 am Sunday morning.
