A severe storm moved through Cascade County on Monday evening bringing rain and severe winds.

On Tuesday, crews were working in the yard at one home on First Road South in Fort Shaw where at least two trees were uprooted.

Three cars appeared to have been crushed by a fallen tree.

About two miles down the road, another home was littered with toppled trees and branches.

Several sheds and at least two cars were damaged.

Across 11th Lane, a pivot was also forced over by the winds.


(June 25, 2018) A cold front impacted the area on Monday evening and caused a few strong thunderstorms to move across the region. 

The strongest storms were expected to hit just east of Great Falls and extend north toward Havre.

Following the storms, we received reports of a power outage affecting Sun Prairie.

According to NorthWestern Energy, about 206 customers around Vaughn were out of power, however, the company reported power was restored around 8:20 p.m.

Breezy conditions will follow the passage of the cold front and a few lingering showers are possible on Tuesday, but mostly dry conditions are expected.
