Per reports, photos and video received from Martin County Fire Rescue, various broadcast media, and social media posts, NWS Melbourne confirmed that a very weak, short-lived tornado (landspout) occurred near the intersection of SE Geraldine Street and SE Railway Avenue in Port Salerno. The tornado, which lasted only a few seconds, was rated as EF-0 (winds near 60 mph). The landspout caused a trampoline to become airborne, where it got stuck in power lines atop a power pole.

During the height of the hurricane, approximately 45,000 customers were without power, or about 50% of the county. Preliminary property damage was estimated at $175,000.
