Clermont, the town this property stands in, in 30 storm reports between 1993 and 2023: 13 hail, 8 thunderstorm wind, 4 tornado, 2 lightning.
The reports record 2 injuries. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
A lightning strike hit two men at a drop-off site for waste and recyclables in Clermont. Both men were injured, but one who was standing in the bed of a pickup truck dropping off debris was seriously injured. He sustained a direct lightning strike and was unconscious when paramedics arrived. Both men were taken to a local hospital.
Heavy rains in December and January continued to produce flooding of low lying areas in the Clermont area of Lake County. Four mobile homes were flooded in a mobile home park.
Rainfall of 3 to 4 inches in a short period of time, associated with a strong thunderstorm, caused a steep 30 foot section of ground adjacent to State Road 50 in Clermont to slide into a home. The mudslide destroyed a home on Sunnyside Drive. Mud several feet high entered the home. The drainage system in the area was designed several decades ago and could not handle the excessive rain rate.
A citizen photographed a brief (landspout) tornado in an open construction field in Clermont. The report and photo was relayed by local media. No damage occurred.
The second tornado of the outbreak touched down in Lake County just east of Lake Louisa along Highway 27. It moved northeast at 45 mph through a rural area blowing down trees but otherwise causing little property damage. At 11:41 pm the tornado moved into Orange County.
