July 2020Thunderstorm WindSeafield-WLFI relayed report of crop damage from wind and hail.
March 2016Tornado (EF0)Seafield-Damage patterns within a 6 miles swath indicate a tornado was likely skipping along its track. Touchdown occurred south of US-24 between South County Road 600 West and 500 West where a barn was destroyed with debris being carried several miles to the northeast. The tornado remained over mainly open fields until pushing over several steel power poles at their base east of the intersection of US-24 and South County Road 500 West. A large pole barn suffered moderate rood damage as winds entered a gap on the bottom of the structure. A home suffered minor roof damage near the intersection of West County Road 100 North and North County Road 300 West. Other damage was found northeast of this location, but was inconclusive as to whether it was the result of tornadic winds. Maximum winds are estimated at 85 mph.
