| Event Narrative | The first known damage from this tornado occurred south of Carson Road, where several trees were damaged and some of the debris was blown onto southbound Interstate 71. Additional damage was found further east on Carson Road, where roof damage occurred to some homes and a stand of trees had a notable but narrow path of damage. More tree damage was located on the southwest side of Harrisburg, along Harrisburg Road and U.S. Route 62. Finally, some trees and tree branches were downed on Ohio State Route 762, just south of U.S. Route 62. |
