A microburst was thought to be responsible for snapping twenty consecutive power poles between the Setters substation and Highway 95 along Setters Road. It is inconclusive whether the initial wind gust snapped only a few poles or was the direct cause for damaging all the poles. It is speculated that a few poles broke in response to the microburst resulting in a domino effect to the remaining poles due to the absence of additional damage in the area.
