Severe thunderstorms moved through the area during the mid afternoon of July 16, 2024. One of the storm cells moved through Canastota, NY producing a tornado touchdown between the Conrail railroad tracks and Barlow Street. The tornado was witnessed by town officials, residents and a video security camera on Canal Street as it moved to the east along Barlow and Railroad Streets. Severe damage occurred to multiple residences along Barlow Street with significant loss of roofs and roofing material as well as blowing out garage doors and windows. Two sheds were destroyed and multiple large diameter tree trunks and limbs were snapped. An 82 year old male |succumbed to injuries sustained while he was outside as the tornado crossed Main |Street. The tornado continued down Center Street causing further damage to trees, |roofs and a few power poles. The tornado veered slightly to the northeast crossing|the Old Erie Canal, causing additional tree damage and tearing a metal roof off of |a pole bar along Canal Road. It then weakened and dissipated before striking a solar |farm which sustained nearly no damage. The damage found along most of the tornado track was consistent with maximum wind speeds around 100 mph which is within the EF-1 category of the Enhanced Fujita scale.
A thunderstorm rapidly became severe over northern portions of the county. Widespread wind damage was reported in Canastota, with the damage reports crossing into the town of Oneida shortly thereafter. Numerous trees and wires were downed in both localities. Two storage sheds were also damaged in Oneida with both a parked vehicle and camper heavily damaged from falling tree limbs.
A line of severe thunderstorms moved across the county causing trees and power lines to come down between 2:35 and 2:40 pm EDT. Trees and wires were downed 5 miles south of Canastota in Lincoln Township and in Hubbardsville.
