Thunderstorm Wind. Eighteen power poles were snapped along Farm District Road, with short dry grass completely stripped from a nearby field. The wind gust was an estimate based on a utility company foreman's experience, who stated that it usually takes around 100 mph to snap power poles cleanly. Minor damage was reported to 4 homes and numerous billboards along Interstate 80 near mile marker 48, with moderate damage to 3 trucks and 2 outbuildings. Radar and damage patterns (examined by a NWS employee) did not indicate any rotation so straight-line winds are the most probable cause.
