There were several softwood trees snapped, uprooted, or with broken branches along a short section of Beechwood Road. Tree damage was oriented to the southeasterly and easterly directions.

The wider storm

During the afternoon and evening hours of April 5, a low pressure system, moving northeast from Minnesota into Ontario, dragged a trailing cold front through the Lower Ohio Valley. This produced a line of severe storms that moved west to east over southern Indiana, resulting in multiple reports of tree damage, structural damage, and one tornado in Perry County.

Began near Deuchars (38.1600, -86.4200).
