July 2012Thunderstorm WindCuba1 killed, 1 hurtA microburst caused extensive damage in Cuba. The damage area started less than a quarter of a mile southwest of the intersection of Interstate 44 and Highway 19. In this location, several medium sized trees and large tree limbs fell to the southwest and west. A little further to the south numerous large tree limbs and a few large trees were blown down along and west of Oak Hill Avenue and south of Grove Street. Additional large tree branches and a few large trees fell on Florence Street between Forest Street and Oak Hill Avenue. Most of the branches fell to the south and southwest showing a divergent wind damage pattern. More tree and large limb damage occurred just northeast of the intersection of School Avenue and Forest Street near the grounds of Holy Cross Catholic Church. Another microburst occurred at the intersection of West Washington and North Smith Street. A grocery store lost much of its roof and was displaced into the parking lot south of the store. A fatality occurred in the parking lot where debris from the roof shattered the front window of a car killing the 28 year old woman who was in the vehicle at the time. A person in a nearby car sustained minor injuries from the flying debris as well. Additional minor roof damage occurred at the Cuba post office where some of the roofing material was peeled off. The length of the microburst damage path was approximately three quarters of a mile and about a third of a mile wide. Based on the tree and structural damage, winds associated with the microbursts were estimated between 65 and 75 mph.
