Description:
Powerful winds accompanied by heavy rain knocked out power and phones in the area during the night of Sept. 30. The storm resulted in several trees blown over, uprooted or broken off, including the one above on Division Street in Stephenson. A section of trunk from a large maple in the yard of Clyde Thoune split off and landed in the yard. Thoune said the whole house shook when the tree fell and he was certain it had hit the porch. Fortunately, there was no damage to his home.
