Pleasantville Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
Tree and light structure damage was first observed at a property to the west of Lancaster Thornville Road NE, shortly after entering the town of Pleasantville. Due to the expansive fields southwest of town, this is believed to be the starting point for this brief and weak tornado. The tornado cut a path across South Main Street, through the southern portions of the town. Along South Main Street, lofted metal roof panels were observed scattered in nearby powerlines and trees. Farther to the east, between South Main Street and Lincoln Avenue, numerous trees were either snapped or uprooted. Light structure damage was also observed on Pleasant Court. The tornado entered nearby fields to the east of Lincoln Avenue. The final observed sign of damage was at a property south of Pleasantville Road NW, near the water tower, and this is where the tornado is believed to have dissipated. While this one mile long tornado is considered to be on the weaker side, a path of convergent damage was visible through the southern portions of Pleasantville. The strongest portion of the tornado was likely along South Main Street, with maximum estimated winds of 85 mph.
Trees and power poles were knocked down in town.
