Goehner Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Thunderstorm winds estimated at least at 65 to 70 mph knocked down trees and power lines, flipped some center pivots and flattened corn from south of Goehner into the Milford area. An on-site weather station near Goehner measured 65 mph wind gusts with this storm, but more damage and probably a little stronger winds occurred in the Milford area. Vehicles and homes sustained damage due to the fallen trees, and several roads, including Highway 6, were temporarily closed because of downed trees. Milford city maintenance workers estimated it would take approximately two weeks to clean up.
