Ossining Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
A storm survey team consisting of meteorologists from the National Weather Service and staff from the Westchester Office of Emergency Management conducted a ground and aerial survey of wind damage from thunderstorms on Friday July 29th. Based on information gathered during the survey and conversations with local residences, the damage is being attributed to a microburst. The microburst had estimated maximum gusts of 80 mph associated with it, a path length of about 1.4 miles, and a maximum path width of 0.4 miles.||Damage from this microburst began on the Croton River along Route 9 and spread south-southeast towards central Ossining. The damage consisted primarily of snapped trees. A large 3-4 foot diameter tree fell on Route 9 near Eagle Bay Drive taking down power lines that resulted in the snapping of several telephone poles. Significant tree damage occurred at Cedar Lane Terrace at 6 Meadowbrook Drive. The tree damage was noted in a divergent pattern.
A television camera man reported large diameter trees snapped off. The Journal News showed a tree that fell onto a crushed a truck on Ferris Place in Ossining. Power lines and a transformer were also damaged.
As a line of severe thunderstorms moved southeast, it produced high winds that downed numerous trees and power lines from Ossining northeast to Croton Falls. Local police and newspapers reported numerous trees and power lines downed in Ossining. Several newspapers reported that a large tree toppled over onto a moving car on Route 22 in Croton Falls.
