| Episode Narrative | The remnants of Hurricane Beryl moved through the Ohio Valley on July 9th. While most of the showers and thunderstorms associated with the remnants of Beryl did not produce severe weather across central Kentucky, one cell in Cumberland and Metcalfe County produced a brief EF0 tornado, as well as some hail. Multiple reports of funnel clouds were also noted during the afternoon and evening hours on July 9th. |
| Event Narrative | The tornadic circulation continued from Cumberland County into Metcalfe County, hugging the west side of Cedar Ridge just to the east of Ferris Creek Road and Earl Hurt Road. The tornado lifted about 1.9 miles north-northeast of Dubre at a residence along Earl Hurt Road after uprooting several more trees that were oriented in multiple directions. A drone was flown along the western edge of the ridge line between the initial residence that was impacted and the lifting point, and very little limb damage was noted. It is likely that there was some terrain interaction along the western edge of Cedar Ridge that helped with the circulation. Overall, the EF0 tornado was on the ground for just under 1 mile with a maximum path width of 200 yards. There was additional straight-line wind damage consistent with 70 to 80 mph winds that was noted right on Ferris Fork and Ferris Creek Roads that all had east-northeasterly orientation and appears to be inflow into the main tornadic circulation just a couple hundred yards to the east. |
