Hundreds of trees were downed in and around Wilson WY. Some trees landed on power lines, resulting in a loss of power for several hours in Wilson. Pictures shared by emergency management showed fallen trees which had damaged homes, businesses, and vehicles.
Thunderstorm outflow wind descended the east slopes of the Teton Range and generated a swath of damage from near Wilson north along the Moose-Wilson Road and through Grand Teton National Park. The damage began near Wilson around 1645MST and spread north until shortly after 1700MST. Downed trees damaged power lines, crushed parked vehicles, made roads impassable, and even stranded park visitors on the Signal Mountain Summit Road. Just under 1000 customers were impacted by power outages due to the downed power lines, including park employee housing at Beaver Creek. In all, over 150 trees were cleared and all park visitors were rescued by 2200MST.
Heavy rain triggered a debris flow in Jensen Canyon shortly before 3:00 p.m. Eyewitness reports indicated that entire trees, boulders, and mud were moved by the debris flow which was three to eight feet deep. The flow pushed an automobile for 20 to 30 feet before flipping it onto its side. A small outbuilding near one residence was also damaged. A geologist measured a mud line 40 feet up the sides of the canyon upstream from the canyon mouth.
Power lines were reported down in Wilson as was a six inch diameter tree just west of town. A local energy company had to install one new pole and rebuild six others. One power line fell on Fish Creek Road and stopped traffic.
