Photographs from libraries nationwide
2 shownSelected from the Digital Public Library of America's 2 image records catalogued for this county. Every one shown here carries a public-domain status or a licence that permits reuse on a site that carries advertising; non-commercial, share-alike and restricted images are excluded. The selection is spread across the county's towns (at most eight per town), so no single institution's bulk upload crowds out the rest. Each opens the holding library's record, and the complete set at the Digital Public Library of America is one click away.
The county from the air
38 shownFlown 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 1,456 frames inside the rectangle that bounds this county; the 38 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 Frames.

| August 2003 | Flash Flood | Dundee | $100,000 | Very heavy rainfall from slow-moving thunderstorms caused flash flooding of small streams leading to numerous road closures in southeast Yates County. Rainfall amounts were on the order of 3 to 4 inches in a 3 hour period. Several roads were undermined and damaged by the flood waters. At one point most roads in the village of Dundee, and the towns of Barrington and Starkey were either closed or impassable. |
| April 2005 | Flash Flood | Countywide | $100,000 | no account filed |
| August 2024 | Flash Flood | Italy | $75,000 | Roads and basements were flooded around Italy. |
| August 2024 | Flash Flood | Potter | $75,000 | Roads and basements were flooded around Potter. |
| June 1996 | Tornado (F1) | Middlesex | $75,000 | no account filed |
| April 2025 | Thunderstorm Wind | Himrod | $55,000 | Strong thunderstorms winds resulted in a swath of damage 1 to 3 miles north of Himrod. A roof was blown off in one piece from a farmhouse, the metal chute on the side of a silo had minor damage, numerous trees were knocked down and a set of power poles were broken. |
| April 2023 | Thunderstorm Wind | Milo Center | $50,000 | First location surveyed was a horse barn with the north side open and it looked like the building was perfectly exposed to the strong winds from the north-northwest to blow the building apart with debris spread to a 155 to 160 degree direction. Looking at post in the ground the mud was soft and waterlogged so it likely did not take as much force to destroy the building so a lower wind estimate was used at 80 mph. ||To the west along City Hill Road there were several medium to large pines that had |either been snapped or uprooted also in a 155 to 160 degree direction. Many of the uprooted trees had a shallow root ball and the hole left by the root ball in the ground was filled with water. To the north along Ridge Road, power poles were either tilting or snapped. The power poles were thinner and older so a lower wind estimate was used resulting in the 85 mph rating. ||Multiple pine trees were also snapped or uprooted at several homes along Ridge Road as well, falling in the 155 to 160 degree direction as well. One home had a chimney that toppled over. Talking to a couple home owners that were home at the time of the |microburst, the stories matched up with strong winds and heavy rain occurring at the same time resulting in white out conditions similar to a blizzard. The stories as well as all the damage and fallen trees leaning in the same direction away from the core of |the storm on radar at the time of the damage means that this was likely a microburst. The Penn Yan Mesonet station from the NYS mesonet system was on the very edge of the microburst and recorded a gust of 62 mph. |
