August 2004Thunderstorm Wind(Coe)Coeur D'Alene A2 hurt, $5,000no account filed
July 2014HailConkling Park1 hurt, $200,000One inch hail was observed at Conkling Park on Lake Coeur D Alene. As the storm tracked into northern sections of Kootenai County, strong outflow winds became the main threat resulting in a corridor of tree damage from Coeur D Alene to Althol. The strongest winds surfaced near Althol and knocked down multiple trees in the RV park across the street from Silverwood Theme Park. One person suffered a minor injury in the RV Park. Trees damaged campers, flipped tents, and knocked over smaller campers.
March 2017Debris FlowSpirit Lake$900,000Snow melt and periodic heavy rain during the month of March caused numerous debris flows and areal flooding issues through out the county. A debris flow near Harrison forced the evacuation of a residential neighborhood with the land continuing to move through the beginning of April. Over 20 roads through out the county were washed out or cut by debris flows and numerous homes experienced basement and first floor flooding. Kootenai County was included in a Presidential Disaster Declaration as a result of the damage inflicted by this episode.

August 2011Thunderstorm WindWorley$300,000A microburst was thought to be responsible for snapping twenty consecutive power poles between the Setters substation and Highway 95 along Setters Road. It is inconclusive whether the initial wind gust snapped only a few poles or was the direct cause for damaging all the poles. It is speculated that a few poles broke in response to the microburst resulting in a domino effect to the remaining poles due to the absence of additional damage in the area.
March 2017FloodCataldo$200,000The Coeur D'Alene River Gage at Cataldo reported a rise above the Flood Stage of 43.0 feet at 7:30 AM PST on March 15th.

Trees were laying in a southwest to northeast direction. Winds were estimated at between 70 to 80 miles per hour. The home owner was in the basement at the time of the damage and was not injured. A rough estimate was used for the total damage during the event.
February 2014FloodSpirit Lake$160,000Heavy runoff led to several drive washouts for residents on hilly terrain across Kootenai County. A swollen Latour creek washed away a small levee and parcel of land that supported a shed at a private residence on South Latour Creek Road.
March 2014FloodHayden$100,000Large road washout ten feet across and eight feet deep on Rimrock Road due to a failed culvert. Two cars drove into a ditch resulting in three injuries. The washout also resulted in a loss of water to 150 residences in the area. Damage costs were estimated.
June 2023HailDudley$50,000Two reports of one inch hail from a thunderstorm in the area. The storm also caused ponding on roadways and widespread minor damage.

March 2014FloodCataldo$30,000A long duration of heavy rain and snow melt resulted in high flows on the Coeur d'Alene River and surrounding small creeks and streams. Water inundated numerous roads and low lying areas along the river from Cataldo to Harrison: Flood waters inundated CCC Road near the Mennonite Church, Latour Creek Road near a campground immediately south of Interstate 90, and along portions of Dudley Road west of Latour Creek.

Minor flooding continued further downstream from Cataldo to Harrison along the Coeur D'Alene River. High water levels and strong currents on the Coeur D'Alene River caused a float home and two boat houses to break free from the Harrison Dock Builders (HDB) Marine in Harrison and drift down river into Coeur D'Alene Lake. The Coeur D'Alene River at Cataldo went above its flood stage of 43 feet at 2330PST on the 16th; crested at 45.94 feet at 2345PST on the 17th; and then went back below flood stage at 415PST on the 19th.
