WhenEvent Place namedHarm What the report says
November 2017Tornado (EF1)Haysville1 hurt, $200,000The tornado touched down just inside the Breckinridge-Meade County line north of Irvington. It pushed a large tobacco barn 15 feet eastward, tore off its roof, and collapsed several walls. Debris from the barn was scattered over a half mile downwind. The tornado moved east-northeast, skipping along a wooded |area where several trees were snapped or uprooted, then hit a mobile home on Fackler Road, rolling the anchored unit several times, destroying the home. The owner sustained only minor injuries as he |rolled over with his house, crawling out of a hole after it settled. A garage on the property was also destroyed. The tornado continued skipping along the northwest side of Sandy Hill Rd, damaging |outbuildings on another farm, before crossing KY highway 261 at Guston Rd. A split level home on Guston Rd had part of its roof removed, with insulation spattered on the lee side of the home. An occupant |of the home reported he was descending the stairs as the roof was torn off, and was briefly drawn up the stairs as it occurred. Debris from the split level home was dropped across the road, where a few more trees were snapped and uprooted. The tornado then flattened a fence and peeled a section of sheet metal on an outbuilding before lifting. The NWS thanks Meade County EMA and Remote Aerial for their assistance in |this damage survey.
