Storm Lee caused a massive tree to come crashing down on a car on West Meadow Road in Rockland Saturday morning.

Winds had been gusting around 40 to 55 mph, and saturated soils and stressed trees from the very wet summer has made it easier for trees to come down. No one was hurt in Rockland.

More than 80,000 households across Maine had lost power as of around 12:15 p.m Saturday.

The National Hurricane Center downgraded Hurricane Lee to a post-tropical cyclone early Saturday.
