Milton Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Multiple trees and power lines were down at New Hope Road and Highway 421.
The Trimble County Emergency Manager reported that almost every house on Smith Lane was damaged. The severe thunderstorm winds resulted in most locations without power in the county. There were also many other buildings, mobile homes, and greenhouses damaged due to the thunderstorms.
An EF-1 tornado touched down on Willard Wilson Road in southern Trimble County. It descended from a supercell storm that earlier brought an EF-1 tornado to Clark County Indiana. This cyclic supercell tracked just to the south of, and 15 minutes behind, another supercell that produced the EF-4 tornado across southern Indiana. Shortly after touching down, the tornado destroyed a barn and a single-wide mobile home. Farther along Willard Wilson Road, another barn had collapsed. A 400 pound four-wheeler was moved 30 feet. Another home had shingle damage. The strongest winds, estimated near 100 mph, developed near High Grove Road. A concentrated grove of trees were destroyed along with downed power lines and a gutter ripped off a house. Finally, the twister downed some power lines and hardwood trees along Carmon Creek Road. It lifted just northwest of the intersection of State Highway 421 and Interstate 71.
The massive EF-4 that crossed southern Indiana finally lifted in Trimble County after a solid path length of 49 miles. This tornado crossed the Ohio River as an EF-1 with a 200 yard wide path length. It damaged a home and two barns on Roger's Road. The barns were overturned with several trees damaged in a manner consistent with 105 mph winds. The tornado then crossed a heavily wooded area near the intersection of Routes 625 and 1838 and damaged some garage shingles. At this point, a second satellite vortex developed just to the south of the main circulation. It totally destroyed a barn on Rodgers Road and extensively damaged another. It severely damaged a rugged forested area before merging with the path of the original tornado near the confluence of Corn Creek Road, Highway 625, and Joyce Mill Road. At this point, the tornado was rated an EF2 with 115 mph estimated winds. Three mobile homes near the intersection of Route 625 and Joyce Mill Road were destroyed along with extensive damage to power lines and poles. Farther east, trees were damaged near Rawlett Lane. Before lifting, the twister brought EF-1 damage to two homes and a mobile home on New Hope Ridge Road. It lifted around 2 miles west of Highway 421.
