Monday's, Nov. 4, windstorm rushed through west Coquitlam, causing power outages and trees to timber in local neighbourhoods.
A large one was uprooted and fell down near the intersection of Robinson Street and Como Lake Avenue in Burquitlam.
This blocked southbound lanes along Robinson for several hours while crews worked as fast as they could to remove the tree.
Meanwhile, another tree fell down into the back of a Vanessa Court home, as well as the shed and fence.
No injuries were reported, a witness told the Tri-City News.

More than 250,000 BC Hydro customers lost power during the vigorous windstorm on Monday.
