episode_narrativeA line of severe thunderstorms moving through Maine produced severe winds that downed trees and power lines throughout the western part of the state. About 30,000 customers lost electrical service during the storms. Trees were reported down in Oxford, Franklin, and York Counties. A small tornado touched down in the town of West Paris in Oxford County. In the town of Canton, a microburst ripped the roof off a 40 x 60 ft barn and carried it in the air more than 200 feet, landing in the tops of trees in a wooded area. Numerous trees were also uprooted. An exchange student drowned in Messalonskee Lake in Sidney when his canoe capsized and he attempted to swim the 75 yards to shore. A department store employee in Auburn was injured when he was struck by lightning as he covered up items outside. He was taken to a nearby hospital and later released. Lightning also struck homes in Windham, Sanford, and Alfred.
