This tree in north Glenwood snapped off in high winds Thursday night and fell on a vehicle. High winds blew across Colorado on Thursday, with a 70 mph gust recorded at Telluride and Interstate 25 closed in suburban Denver when an Ikea sign was at risk of being blown down.

Be glad this isn't your vehicle under the tree that blew down Thursday night.
