Widespread 40 to 50 mph sustained winds occurred at the Idaho National Laboratory with gusts of 60 to 70 mph.   The winds damaged a building under construction at around 5 pm MDT.
An upper-level low sagging down the Pacific Northwest Coastline was responsible for drawing moist, unstable air northward into Northern Idaho.  Shortwave energy ejecting from the low triggered thunderstorms over Northern Idaho during the afternoon and evening of July 16th.  As the thunderstorms tracked over the Coeur D Alene area, lightning struck a reservoir tank on Tubbs Hill causing damage to a sensor.
