| 22:18Z | EF0 | KILN | OH | Ross | Anderson | The tornado initially touched down on the south side of County Road 550 (Pleasant Valley Rd) where several barns were heavily damaged with roofing material thrown across the road and into adjacent properties about 1/4 mile downstream. From there, a consistent swath of enhanced tree damage was found along a nearly six mile continuous path across U.S. 35, County Road 125 (Union Lane), Egypt Pike, OH-207, and OH-104. A home and some outbuildings were damaged as the tornado crossed OH-207. With the enhanced swath of damage not found on the east side of the Scioto River, it is expected that the tornado lifted somewhere in the Scioto River flood plain. |
| 00:29Z | EF0 | KGSP | SC | Laurens | Owings | NWS storm survey found the path of a brief weak tornado just southwest of Perrin Circle in Laurens County. Residents described a wispy funnel that first touched down in a field damaged a carport and uprooted several trees as it moved into a wooded area. The weak tornado intermittently touched down and lifted along its half mile track downing a few more trees and snapping large branches before lifting just short of Cooley Road. Some minor damage occurred to an old barn as well as minor structural damage to a couple of houses. |
| 01:11Z | EF0 | KPBZ | OH | Columbiana | Hanoverton | Damage along this discontinuous path began in relatively open|terrain southeast of Hanoverton and continued to near Richey|School Road and Route 30 northeast of Hanoverton. The most|concentrated area of damage encountered was along Lindesmith Road,|where a farmstead was impacted by the tornadic wind. In and near|this location, several trees were snapped or uprooted, and several|additional large limbs had been snapped. Also here, sheet metal|roofing from a barn was removed, and two 3000 lb hay wagons were|relocated upwind of their prior location. Damage in this vicinity |likely was a combination of tornadic and non-tornadic wind. Toward|the end of its path, a home showed damage to its fascia. No|evidence of consistent damage was discovered thereafter. Maximum wind|along the path was estimated to be 75 MPH. |
| 01:24Z | EF0 | KPBZ | OH | Columbiana | Washingtonville | A brief tornado was confirmed in northern Columbiana County |following a survey of damage in the Leetonia/Washingtonville area.|Damage began just north of the Leetonia High School and was most|concentrated along Leetonia Road, where numerous trees were|snapped or uprooted. Minor fascia damage also was noted in this|area.||The circulation then weakened as it progressed northeast, with|tree damage continuing to the county line, where debris evidence |seemed to end abruptly. NWS Pittsburgh observed no evidence of |wind damage continuing into Mahoning County, which is coincident|with a weakening trend in the radar-depicted circulation.||Damage earlier in the circulation's track across Salem Township was|sporadic and did not prove to be conclusively tornadic.||At its peak, tree damage was consistent with wind speeds of 70-75|mph near the beginning of the swath along Leetonia Road. The|tornado was very narrow and brief, and additional wind damage just|south and east of the tornado likely was caused by enhanced|straight-line wind associated with the tornado's parent mesovortex|and rear-inflow surge. |
| 01:31Z | EF1 | KPBZ | PA | Beaver | Fairview | The damage started in the vicinity of Tuscarawas road then moved northeast to where five power poles were snapped near the Shop N' Save plaza. This is where the |strongest damage was observed of the entire track, with an estimated peak wind speed of 105-110 MPH. For the remainder of the track, hardwood and softwood trees were used to estimate wind speed. ||The tornado continued northeast and caused uprooted hardwood and|softwood trees through Brady's Run Park. A lull in damage was|observed given limited access around Interstate 376 south of the |Brighton exit. Damage picked up again in Daughtery township where |at least 40 to 50 hardwood trees were snapped or uprooted. One |tree that was uprooted left a six foot crater in the ground. The |last damage was recorded just northeast of Klein Road. |
