Pleasant Grove Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
A supercell crossed over northern Franklin County Alabama and a tornado developed and touched down near Lost Creek Road on the northeast side of the Cedar Creek Reservoir. When it touched down, a number of hardwood trees, softwood trees, and power poles were snapped and a well built single family home lost a significant amount of the roofing material and the one occupant of the home was injured when the tornado occurred. The home also shifted with cracks noted on the concrete under-girding of the home. This is where the tornado was at its strongest (EF-2). The tornado quickly moved northeast snapping 10-20 trees and power poles as it moved towards the Frankfort Community along County Road 88.
A tree fell onto power lines along Fan Road resulting in widespread power outages.
Power lines were blown down on 4th Street, in Pleasant Grove.
Trees and powerlines were down near Highway 269. A building roof was also damaged.
