Lake Powell Park just got its third emergency call of the day. Around 9 AM, fire crews were sent back to the park for a power pole reported leaning with a line in the trees smoking. Earlier, a tree caught fire inside the park around 4 AM and a power pole caught fire there around 7 AM, all after the overnight storm.
