A massive tree came crashing down on one person's home in San Bernardino. Timothy Anaya said it appeared calm and then his house shook as the tree crashed into the home.
The hole in the roof didn't just let light in, it let in the heavy rain that was coming down. The family won't just have to fix the roof, they're also dealing with the water damage.
"There's a lot that needs to be done. It messed up the roof pretty bad so I think the whole roof might need to be repaired...then there's water damage all over the carpet and everything like that so I've got a guy in there who's going to take care of the drying and everything," he said.
