Beaverton Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Several trees uprooted and power lines downed on 4 Oaks Road.
The tornado touched down just southwest of the town of Beaverton, along US-278, and then tracked northeast from there. The metal roof of the Beaverton Post Office was blown off, and City Hall also sustained roof damage. Also in Beaverton, two trains were stranded on the tracks due to a power outage. The conductors were aware of the tornado warnings because they said they heard the tornado sirens about 20 minutes before the storm hit. One of the railroad personnel apparently witnessed the tornado. Elsewhere along the path, several hardwood trees were uprooted and many more softwood trees were snapped off. A few homes suffered significant damage from downed trees, and a few roads were temporarily closed due to the fallen trees. The tornado continued into Marion County.
Several trees and power lines were blown down.
