A macroburst occurred where damage consisted of one doublewide manufactured home with the roof blown off, one empty storage building blown apart, and about 3 miles of downed power lines (approximately 44 poles all together) starting near mile marker 10 north of Nashua on the Nashua Road (State Highway 438). The power poles were snapped cleanly, mostly at ground level. As the poles were around 10 years old and relatively strong looking, and there were 3 miles of snapped poles, the NWS officials estimated the winds to be around 120 mph. The house and storage building had less wind, since nearby poles were not snapped at those locations. This also was the origination point to where a combined swath of hail and wind damaged 70 to 100 percent of the crops east southeast to the Roosevelt County border. This storm continued into extreme southwest Roosevelt County.||According to the USDA Hazard Risk Assessment indemnity figures, approximately $750,000 worth of crop damage occurred with this storm (as of October 12, 2010).
