Severe lightning storm damages trees and appliances in Glenboro area

An early morning August 22 lightning storm blasted through Glenboro and Cypress River, snapping a 75 foot Spruce in front of Tim and Joyce Wallis and striking another tree near the Senior Citizens home. The storm damaged wiring and appliances, prompting many repair requests the next day. Experts advise unplugging devices as surge bars offer little protection. Manitoba Hydro reports affected power stations in the region.
