            The Glacier National Park official estimated
            that approximately 10 trees were downed
            during the wind event, many of which were
            Lodgepole Pines up to 24 inches in diameter.
            One tree struck a parked car at the Lake
            McDonald Lodge. Downed trees forced the
            closure of the Inside North Fork Road and
            the Quarter Circle Bridge Road leading to
            Apgar Lookout for 18 hours. No wildfires
            were reported as a result of the lightning
            strikes Monday night, to their knowledge.
