Bainbridge Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
A significant downburst wind event hit the Afton area. Much of the damage was done to trees along the core path of the downburst, with scattered tree damage north and south of the core. The majority of trees fell to the east-northeast, with a slightly divergent pattern detected. Damage occurred to several homes from trees falling on the structures. The heaviest damage occurred near power lines north of the intersection of Algerine Street and Route 7. The path of tree damage was seen crossing Interstate 88, with uprooted and snapped trees.
Many trees and power lines were blown down.
Trees limbs and wires were blown down. Power poles were snapped.
The tornado initially touched down at the electric generating substation south of the village, on state route 7. Numerous large trees and power lines were downed. The tornado continued in a northeast direction across the Susquehanna River, to county road 39. Here a small barn was flattened and numerous large hardwood trees were sheared off or had limb broken. A tree fell across two cars. One very large, healthy limb fell across the roof of a house causing significant damage. Many smaller buildings were destroyed. The tornado then continued northeast, shearing off more tree limbs, before reaching interstate 88. An eyewitness there backed up his pickup to get out of the way of the tornado. After crossing I-88, more tree damage was evident for about 200 yards. The damage path became more diffuse before it crossed state route 206, where it quickly dissipated. Many trees and wires were downed along the entire route. The total path length was about 1.1 miles. The most intense damage was within the first 0.7 miles. The maximum width of the damage was about 300 yards, with the core damage from the tornado around 75 yards.
