Thursday,
August 4, 2016: There was a storm
overnight. Weather radar showed a line of thunderstorms headed right
for Brainerd. |
 |
|
High winds toppled trees and caused widespread
power outages. |
 |
| Mighty oak trees that had
stood for decades were split like match sticks. |
 |
| Some had trouble getting out
of their homes. |
 |
| Lots of trees down, which can
be turned into firewood for winter. |
 |
| Crews were out restoring
power around the area. Some residents were without power
four days. |
 |
| Paula headed to the Crow Wing
County Fair that evening and found storm damage there as well. But, the show must go on. It did. |
 |
| People in this neck of the
woods are tough, they can take it. |
Quote of the day:
Summer brings mild and sometimes intense weather. Mark
