Intense dirt and insulation splatter was noted on the east and north side of the home. Additionally, a detached garage to the south-southeast of the home was demolished by the tornado. A property less than 500 yards to the northeast was not impacted, suggesting the tornado quickly lifted beyond 600 N.

Huntington County EMA personnel assisted survey teams in documenting tornado paths and storm impacts.

We also thank local first responders, dispatch personnel, highway departments, utility crews, volunteer organizations, and residents for their continued cooperation during response and recovery operations.

Residents with storm damage who have not yet reported impacts are encouraged to contact Indiana 211 by dialing 2-1-1 or visiting on.in.gov/IN-211.
