Beaumont Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
A bowing segment of storms produced a tornado beginning along|Highway 198 near Isabelle Loop just northwest of downtown|Beaumont. The tornado traveled along the tracks of the Canadian|National Railroad, uprooting a tree which fell onto a manufactured|home in its wake. By this time, the tornado had strengthened to|an EF-2 and entered a lumber mill and caused extensive damage to|two large metal buildings. One of the buildings collapsed on|itself, likely due to it being only partially enclosed. Nearby|power poles were damaged, with one snapped clean at its base.|Damage was rated near expected bounds given the age and|construction of the metal buildings which lined up to the snapped|utility pole. The tornado quickly weakened somewhat (to an EF-1),|and continued southeast along the railroad tracks due to the|motion of the parent bowing segment. As it moved along, it caused|a decent amount of tree destruction to numerous hardwood and|softwood trees. As the tornado crossed Bolton Avenue and MS-15, it|restrengthened briefly into an EF-2 and snapped many hardwoods|and softwoods as well as uprooting several trees. It also damaged|the roof of a nearby small home and the roof of a church. A shed|or carport on the church property was also destroyed. More trees|were damaged as the tornado continued to move southeast and also|destroyed a large shed/unattached garage. The tornado then moved|east, parallel to 1st Street, where it likely lifted and|dissipated; however, the survey team was not able to access this|area as the street was closed due to down power poles and|continued tree damage.
Winds estimated at 60 mph downed trees on a power line at the corner of Cicero Road and Highway 98.
High winds from a thunderstorm blew down several trees and power lines along US Highway 98, just west of McClain.
Trees and power lines were blown down by high winds from a thunderstorm south of Beaumont near Lake Perry.
