Clearwater Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Power lines were blown down in the Clearwater area. This was received via social by KFDI.
A large tornado moved across rural areas in Sedgwick county causing damage to a few farmsteads. None of the major structures took a direct hit from the tornado. Most of the damage was limited to power poles, barns, silos, and farm equipment. A horse trailer was thrown for approximately 220 yards by the tornado. The Doppler on Wheels was also in the vicinity and recorded 155 mph winds at 70 meters above ground level. This would be an EF3, however, based on damage it did not appear that wind speeds at that level reached the surface. Hence the EF2 rating.
Power lines and a few power poles downed caused some power outages in the area.
Tree limbs up to 18 inches in diameter were snapped. Clearwater was without power.
A KWCH storm chaser reported numerous tree limbs down and the power knocked out in the Clearwater area.
