Louisville, the town this property stands in, in 41 storm reports between 1994 and 2025: 18 hail, 15 thunderstorm wind, 3 tornado, 3 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.
Thunderstorm winds caused considerable damage at a farmstead. A dairy barn and other outbuildings were destroyed or heavily damaged. There was also some damage to crops.
An extensive area of damaging thunderstorm winds extended from Louisville to north of Murray. The path of extensive downed trees, power lines and large limbs occurred in a swath in Cass County that was 16 miles long and 4-5 miles wide. Winds up to 80 mph occurred from these storms. The damage started near Louisville, where there were many large trees blown down. The damage was accentuated by hail up to 1 1/2 inches in diameter that broke numerous windows in homes in the city. Extensive damage occurred at Lake Wa Con-da where numerous power poles were blown down, trees down, and roof damage to homes occurred. Multiple trees were down in Cedar Creek with boats being torn away from their docks.
A tornado did intermittent damage from 3 miles southwest of Louisville to 2 miles southwest of Cedar Creek. Scattered tree damage was reported in this area and some farm outbuildings were destroyed. A mobile home southwest of Cedar Creek was moved 8 inches off of its foundation.
Additional heavy rain producing thunderstorm fell across parts of the Platte River basin on June 4th and 5th. This caused the already high Platte River to briefly go over its banks around the Louisville area from late morning until early evening on June 6th. The river at Louisville crested around 9.2 feet at 345 pm on June 6th, flood stage is 9 feet. The flooding affected mainly just agricultural lowlands.
Heavy rainfall of over 3 inches caused flash flooding south of Louisville. The flood waters went over highway 50 south of town closing it for a few hours.
A vertically stacked area of low pressure over Kansas produced a large area of thunderstorms over the northern half of Kansas late in the afternoon. By early evening, these thunderstorms had moved into southeast Nebraska. Strong cyclonic flow around the cold upper low allowed tornadoes to spin down over Nemaha, Johnson, Cass, and Lancaster Counties in Nebraska; and Fremont County in Iowa.
