New Haven, the town this property stands in, in 56 storm reports between 1993 and 2026: 27 thunderstorm wind, 24 hail, 2 tornado, 2 flash flood.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. 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 mobile home was severely damaged after being turned over from high wind. Trees were also uprooted, a barn damaged, and windows blown out. Reported by a local newspaper.
A small tornado touched down just southwest of New Haven damaging the roof of a house. As the storm moved quickly east-northeast, it peeled the roof of a oil station off and pushed telephone poles along County Road C over. Just before crossing Highway 100, the tornado caused minor damage to the corner of a barn and snapped numerous large trees in half. The tornado lifted shortly after damaging a chicken house north of Highway 100. Witnesses said marble-size hail covered the ground and the storm sounded like a train passing by.
Thunderstorm wind gusts cause quite a bit of damage in the New Haven area. The roof of a gymnasium at a local school was blown off. Other homes suffered roof damage and numerous trees and power lines were downed.
The roof of the New Haven Police Department and radio tower suffered extensive damage. Large trees were also blown down and uprooted in the Leslie and Gerald areas.
A Tornado Debris Signature off of the KLSX radar appeared just south of the Missouri River and tracked north-northeast. Ground survey was unable to find damage directly associated with tornado, but NWS GIS Mutual Aid analysis of high resolution satellite imagery was able to find tree damage consistent with an EF-0 tornado.
Up to three inches of rain fell over Franklin county over a short period of time on already saturated soils. Numerous roads were closed due to flooding including Beemont Road, Beemont School Road, Detmold Road, Hoeman Road, and Highway C about a mile north of U.S. Highway 50.
A large swath of penny to nickel size hail fell from New Haven to 4 miles south of New Haven. Some locations reported hail up to one and a half inches in depth on the ground.
Lightning strikes caused damage at a couple of homes, knocked out telephone service across parts of town, and damaged a pump at the City Water Department. One home suffered broken windows, holes in the outside siding and inside drywall, and damage to household electronics. Two homes had to be evacuated after a lightning strike damaged a natural gas pipe.
Thunderstorm wind gusts caused some damage just south of New Haven. Trees and power lines were down, a barn and some outbuildings were also damaged. A mobile home was damaged when 3 trees were pushed over by the wind and ended up leaning on the side of the home.
The County Sheriff reported trees and power lines down. The wind also caused havoc at the County Youth Fair which had just started. A couple of large tents were blown down and electricity was knocked out in the area.
