An unstable atmosphere resulted in gusty winds on the afternoon of May 25 across southern Vermont. The wind gusts were strong enough to knock down some limbs. Limbs in turn, fell upon utility wires and caused power outages to about 2,400 customers in Windham County. The disruptions in power lasted approximately two hours.

What these are
