Survey Summary:
The EF-0 tornado quickly spun up near Hwy 70 and Brownstown Road
causing minor tree damage. The tornado then moved directly into
the Pleasant Hill community where several structures were damaged
including the elementary school and a nursing home along with a
few other buildings. Most of these structures sustained portions
of the roof lost, glass broken, and/or siding damage. At this
point, the tornado was the strongest and widest here. The tornado
then travelled along Bud Tanner Road causing mostly downed trees,
although there were a couple of homes with minor roof and siding
damage. Minor tree damage continued to be observed on Claysville
Road and Stonecrest Loop where the tornado weakened considerably
and finally dissipated after traveling almost 6 miles.
