Episode Narrative A cold front with strong upper level support collided with a very moist air mass over the lower Ohio Valley. The result was a widespread outbreak of severe thunderstorms, and six confirmed tornadoes. The storms produced property damage, downed trees and power lines, and large hail.
Event Narrative The tornado damaged two outbuildings near the initial touchdown point. It also downed trees, and the damage pattern of the trees indicated a rotary circulation. At this point the tornado moved out over a wooded and largely inaccessible area, where it may have been on the ground intermittently. Most of the structural damage occurred in about the last three quarters of a mile of the damage path. In this stretch, a few houses had chimney and roof damage. The tornado also knocked down some vertical columns on a porch overhang. The roof was blown off a cinder block garage, and three of the garage walls were collapsed.
