| February 2014 | Tornado (EF0) | Kilbourne | $100,000 | The tornado touched down on the edge of a field along North Old State Road. A large tree and barn sustained significant damage near the beginning of the path of the tornado. The tornado then moved northeast, crossing North Old State Road. A narrow path of additional tree damage was observed in the front yard of a residence. This home sustained minor damage including a garage door blown in, loss of shingles and a couple of broken windows. A nearby utility pole and transformer were snapped with electric lines also downed. Further along the path of the tornado, a large spruce tree was uprooted, an unanchored storage shed was moved off its foundation, and several other trees were damaged. Based on the damage surveyed, the maximum estimated wind speed of this tornado was 85 miles per hour. |
| September 2020 | Tornado (EF0) | Kilbourne | $25,000 | The tornado is believed to have begun in a field just west of Jumper Road, with the first evidence of tornadic damage occurring along Jumper Road. Multiple trees and large limbs were knocked down and partial uplift of a roof was observed on one of the homes. Shingles and other material were thrown both downwind and upwind from the home. To the southeast of Jumper Road, additional tree damage was noted along North Old State Road. The tornado likely crossed Alum Creek, producing additional tree damage along N 3 Bs and K Road before lifting. This tornado was rated EF0 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, with maximum winds of 80 mph. |
