Survey Summary:
The National Weather Service in Wilmington Ohio has confirmed an
EF0 tornado north of Springfield in Clark County, Ohio.

This tornado was first observed at a large manufacturing and 
trucking facility on Urbana Road. Video evidence shows a tornado 
moving through a parking lot, and a semi trailer was flipped.

As this tornado moved east-southeast, additional tree damage was 
observed on Willow Road, and in several locations north and south 
of Moorefield Road. Several snapped trees were observed just east 
of Mechanicsburg Road, which is the last known damage from this 
tornado. The magnitude of the tree damage supports an estimated 
maximum wind speed of 80 MPH.

Sporadic tree and barn damage was observed elsewhere in this 
area, including on E County Line Road and N Plateau Drive. Damage 
at these locations was determined to be from straight-line winds 
of up to 70 MPH.

The National Weather Service would like to thank the Clark County
Emergency Management Agency for their assistance and 
coordination.

End Lat/Lon:            39.0646 / -84.0972

Survey Summary:
The National Weather Service in Wilmington Ohio has confirmed an
EF0 tornado near Owensville in Clermont County, Ohio.

Although sporadic tree and other wind damage was observed across 
wide swaths of the surveyed area, the most concentrated area of 
damage began near US Rte 50 where a very large tree was downed 
onto a portion of a home near the intersection with Benton Road. 
This is approximately where the tornado likely first caused 
damage, with damage in these areas consistent with an EF0 tornado 
with winds of 80-85 MPH. Additional significant tree damage was 
observed farther to the south on the west side of Parkside Drive, 
where several patches of snapped trees were observed.

It is possible the tornado briefly lifted farther to the south 
toward State Rte 132 as there was no discernible damage on either 
the north or south side of the road. However, farther to the south
toward Bauer Road, additional tree damage was observed on each 
side of the road and along a portion of Peace Haven Lane.

The tornado may have again briefly lifted toward Herold Road as 
no discernible damage was observed within the narrow rotation 
swath within this corridor. This being said, it is believed the 
tornado was again causing significant tree damage toward the south
side of State Route 276 where numerous snapped and uprooted trees
were observed on either side of Half Acre Road. The tree damage 
in this vicinity was concentrated and significant, suggesting 
80-85 MPH winds once again.

Additional tree and minor structural damage was observed on the 
southern and western fringe of the center of the narrow tornado 
track, including along Old State Route 32, and this damage was 
consistent with straight-line winds. No discernible significant 
tree or structural damage was observed south of Old State Route 32
and Half Acre Road, so it is believed the tornado had lifted as 
the storm progressed west and southwest of Williamsburg.

The National Weather Service would like to thank Clermont County 
Emergency Management for their assistance with this survey and 
damage assessment.

Survey Summary:
The National Weather Service in Wilmington Ohio has confirmed an
EF0 tornado near Monterey in Clermont County, Ohio.

Although sporadic tree and other wind damage was observed along 
large swaths of the surveyed area, it is believed the tornado 
first caused damage near the intersection of Monterey Road and 
Hutchinson Road. Several uprooted and snapped trees were observed 
along Monterey Road progressing southeast toward US Rte 50. Some 
minor roof shingle damage was also observed on a residence within 
this corridor.

Farther to the south, it is believed the tornado tracked across 
US Rte 50 where additional snapped trees were observed near the 
intersection of US Rte 50 and Monterey Maple Grove Road.

To the southeast, a roof was also completely removed from a 
large barn just south of Caudil East Road near the intersection 
of Clemons Road. Additional large tree damage was observed in this
area as well.

Some tree damage was observed near the intersection of Jackson 
Pike and State Route 133. Farther to the southeast, dozens of 
trees were uprooted or snapped along a portion of McKeever Pike 
near Schoolhouse Road.

It is believed the tornado weakened and lifted farther to the 
southeast as the storm transitioned to producing large swaths of 
straight-line wind damage near the Clermont and Brown county line 
east of Williamsburg.

The National Weather Service would like to thank the Clermont 
County Emergency Management Agency for their assistance with this 
survey and damage assessment.
