EF1 tornado in Clark County, Ohio

The tornado first touched down between Ritchie Drive and Interstate 70, where a semi-trailer was overturned. Damage was then observed approaching Ritchie Drive to Ritchie Brothers Auctioneers, which had some roof damage and siding removed. The tornado progressed east-southeast into South Vienna where multiple tree limbs were downed across east North Street and north East Street and some minor structural damage to roofs occurred.

Damage then continued toward the east-southeast along east Main Street and the tornado strengthened as it crossed Longs Court and headed further east-southeast. Several trees were snapped in half with at least three trees uprooted toward the eastern city limits of South Vienna.

East of where east Main Street merges with east National Road, a garage was slightly shifted off of its foundation. The tornado continued east-southeast with minor tree damage observed near where Wilson Road and south Houston Pike meet.

The tornado then crossed into Madison County, about 2 miles east-northeast of Brighton and continued east-southeast before dissipating near Summerford at 1825EST.

Thunderstorms overspread the region during the afternoon and evening hours as a slow moving cold front pushed through the Ohio Valley. The storms produced damaging winds, heavy rainfall and isolated tornadoes. The storms continued into the overnight hours with flooding lingering into the early morning hours.
