August 2021Flash FloodCenterville$100,000Flash flooding was reported on the Bountiful Bench, with water flowing through a home.
July 1995Tornado (F0)Centerville$10,000Severe pre-frontal thunderstorms developed along the Wasatch front. In the Kearns area, gusts were measured at 58 mph. In the Centerville area, a gustnado occurred. Witnesses indicated they heard a train sound and saw both trees and dirt moving in circular motions. The overall damage path was about 0.5 miles long and less than 0.1 mile wide. The gustnado moved from south to north, with it apparently skipping into the air, not causing damage along the entire path length. One witness was briefly lifted into the air as the gustnado passed over. One house incurred $10,000 in damage. They reported severe tree damage, had two skylights lifted from part of the roof, and had an electric junction box removed from the side of the house. Their next door neighbor reported that two-inch diameter willow branches were removed from the tree, transported 100 feet and over a single story building, and were wrapped tightly around the base of another tree. At a third house, a flag pole that had previously withstood 90 mph winds was snapped. The gustnado bent a six-foot chain fence to a 45 degree angle towards the east.
