| When | Event | Place named | Harm | What the report says |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| May 2015 | Thunderstorm Wind | Kampville | 2 hurt | As a thunderstorm moved through Lakeside 370 RV Park and Campground, winds around 50 mph struck two RVs broadside and rolled them over. Several tents and tables were also blown down/overturned. Four people were injured. One person had a broken leg and another had a shoulder injury. The other two just had minor injuries. Only the person with the broken leg was transported to the hospital. |
| June 2008 | Flash Flood | Kampville | $50,000 | The Elm Point Levee failed causing flood waters to pour into a portion of far northern St. Charles county. The area affected was from just north of Highway 370 to Huster Road on the east to Elm Point Road on the south and Truman Boulevard on the west. The St. Louis Youth Association's 18 soccer fields were flooded and about 500 acres of farmland were affected. A couple of businesses were flooded as well. Highway 370 was closed for a brief time as there were hundreds of deer and other wildlife crossing the highway to higher ground and they were causing a major hazard to traffic in the area. |
| April 2017 | Tornado (EF0) | Kampville | - | A weak tornado touched down to the southwest of the intersection of Missouri Highway B and Huster Road causing minor damage to trees in this area and traveled northeast to the small community of South Shore where several single family homes experienced minor damage, while outbuildings or sheds were destroyed. Damage to structures and trees were consistent with wind speeds of 80 mph. The tornado moved northeast and intersected a line of parked campers and boats along Dwyer Club Road. At least half of a dozen boats and campers were tossed to the northeast and destroyed by the tornado. Several trees in this area were uprooted, mainly due to the very wet soil. The damage path was 100 yards wide at this location. The tornado then hit an outbuilding on Dwyer Road, lifting most of the roof panels to the northeast. The tornado passed just to the east of Yacht Club Harbor with only a few tree limbs broken in this area. The Lake Center Marina did not fare so well, with two boat docks lifted and twisted into the trees on the south end of the property. The tornado lifted shortly thereafter with no visible damage to the north of this location. Overall, the tornado was rated EF0 with max wind speeds of 80 MPH. Path length is 3.85 miles with a max path width of 100 yards. |
