The county from the air
48 shown
Flown by the U.S. Geological Survey
between 1937 and 1989, the Aerial Photo Single Frames collection is
the definitive mid-century view of the land: fields, roads and rivers
as the camera saw them. The Survey holds 1,536 frames inside the
rectangle that bounds this county; the 48 frames below were taken over
the county itself, chosen across the decades of flights (at most four
a year from that rectangle), so one flight cannot crowd out the rest.
The full set is free to browse and download at
EarthExplorer under the dataset Aerial Photo Single

The most serious of them, by death, then
injury, then recorded damage. The accounts are quoted exactly as the
forecast office filed them.
A National Weather Service storm survey confirmed EF-1 damage with 100 mph maximum wind estimate, a path length of 1.5 miles, and a width of 35 yards. The tornado touched down in a wooded area before moving across a property, flattening a 60'x80' garage and lifting and rotating a 53' semi trailer. It then crossed a road and damaged the second story of a barn. It crossed another road and damaged two other barns along Thayer Road before continuing to tree damage to the east end of Farr Road.
Water was backing up the Bemus Creek, across Bemus Point, due to the rising level of Chautauqua Lake. Voluntary evacuations of area homes was underway.
An isolated thunderstorm moved onshore from Lake Erie and moved across Chautauqua County. The thunderstorm winds downed large trees and limbs in the Village of Cassadaga.
