Atlanta Fire Battalion Chief Douglas Hatcher said the weight of the tree, which is about two feet wide, took out much of the house's roof. It also crashed through several layers of brick and caused the house to shift on its foundation.

A man inside the house was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but did not appear to be seriously hurt. Nobody else was injured.

A second tree fell at around 5:15 a.m. at a house on Enota Place SW, also in southwest Atlanta.

Dispatchers said a mother and daughter inside the house were taken to a local hospital. Their conditions were not immediately known.

And in Buckhead, a tree fell and is blocking Carlton Drive.  Power is out in the area.
