National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed the damage in western Marion County and have determined that the damage was the result of an EF-0 tornado. A weak tornado touched down north of Interstate 22/US Highway 78 northeast of the intersection of Taylor Road and County Road 11. Along County Road 11, ten to twenty pine trees were uprooted in a convergent pattern, with damage caused to a church by falling trees. The tornado paralleled County Road 11 briefly, causing mainly sporadic tree damage, and then continued northeast over open fields and forest. As it crossed County Road 157 north of County Road 56, several trees were uprooted and tin was pealed back on a farm building. It continued northeastward with very minor damage, crossing County Road 309 and Reid Road. The last damage along the path occurred on County Road 13 just west of Alabama Highway 19, where several pine trees were uprooted. The tornado dissipated rapidly beyond this point.

ALABAMA, North

A brief tornado touched down off Martling Road near Jolie Lane destroying one chicken house and severely damaging another. Much of the debris was thrown to the north-northwest suggesting the wind flow was circular and convergent in nature. Just northeast, several trees were snapped west of Martling Road. At the intersection of Martling Road and Burgess Road, six to eight pine trees were snapped near the base and a house sustained some roof and siding damage. Based on the structural damage to the chicken house and the snapped pines, the maximum winds were determined to be around 95 mph.

Franklin County 1 WNW Red Bay 03 1210CST 1 W Halltown 1216CST 0 0 Thunderstorm Wind (87EG)

A broken line of entered western Franklin County just after 12:00 AM CST producing significant damage in the town of Red Bay. The initial damage was seen around the Red Bay High School where bleachers were lifted through a net and fence at the softball field and a roof was torn off a dugout. A large portion of a metal roof was lifted off a home on the south side of the school. Just east of the school, along Bullard Drive, several large hardwood trees on a hill were snapped near the base. Additional trees in this area were snapped or uprooted. All the trees in this area were laying in the same direction, suggesting very strong straight-line winds approaching 100 mph. The pocket of very strong and damaging winds continued to spread across the Red Bay Cemetery, just north of Old Vina Road. At this location, several large trees were either uprooted or snapped near their bases. The concentration of strongest winds appeared to occur between Bullard Drive and 10th Street East near the cemetery. Additional sporadic damage occurred to the east-northeast between 10th Street East and Highway 24. At Mud Creek Road and Highway 24, two power poles were snapped along with a 10 by 10 foot shed partially destroyed. Just east of this location, a portion of a gas station canopy was pulled off. This was the final piece of damage seen along the path of this wind maxima.

A squall line moved east through the region during the pre-dawn hours. As the squall line entered northwest Alabama, it produced a swath of damaging winds in the community of Red Bay in Franklin County. As the line proceeded east and weakened, a new line formed in central and north central Alabama. This line produced a brief EF-0 tornado in the town of Madison in Madison County and an EF-1 tornado in the Asbury community of Marshall County. Note: The estimated wind gust of 87 knots is equivalent to 100 mph.

ALABAMA, North Colbert County Tuscumbia 13 1829CST 1 SSW Wilson Dam 1833CST 3.48 200 0 1 Tornado (EF1)

A tornado initially touched down in downtown Tuscumbia, near the intersection of 6th Street and Main Street, where two roofs were peeled off nearby businesses. The brick facade of a small retail building was torn off across 5th Street, and it's roof was partially torn off and roofing material vaulted into nearby power lines. The path continued northeast to High Street between 3rd and 4th Streets, where a very old pecan tree was uprooted and fell onto an historic home causing injury to the resident. In this residential area, multiple trees were snapped and uprooted or had large limbs broken off. Several power poles were snapped. Many more old trees were snapped an uprooted across the road along Commons Street between Mulberry and Hickory Streets. At this point, the tornado appeared to weaken somewhat as it crossed a large corn field between Commons Street and King Avenue. It snapped branches upon reaching King Avenue and toppled Bradford pear trees on the grounds of Shoals Hospital along Billy Bowling Drive. As the tornado moved across Grand, Pasadena, and Ford Avenues and Ford Street in Muscle Shoals, it did significant damage to multiple trees throughout the neighborhood. Very minor damage was noted to a couple of houses, but nearly all damage was to trees or power poles. The tornado intensified as it crossed Ford Street and moved into a commercial district along Woodward Avenue near 2nd Street. There was widespread structural damage to businesses and a church in this area. Numerous awnings were damaged or destroyed, roofs were partly torn off of strip malls, a few windows were broken, and several large signs along the road were blown down. Roofing was peeled off of a used car dealership and gas station and vaulted across the street into a wooded area and another nearby gas station. Power poles were snapped, and two metal power poles were bent, damaging the traffic lights at the intersection. The tornado continued across 2nd Street onto the Tennessee Valley Authority Reservation, where it snapped multiple trees along Garage Road. The tornado lifted before reaching Reservation Road, and little to no damage was noted thereafter. Minor straight-line wind damage was observed farther northeast, near Grandview Drive near the Tennessee River, but this was not associated with the tornado.

Reports of localized flooding from heavy rain in Cherokee, near the elementary school along North Pike Street. Between 3 and 6 inches of water covering the roadway. Dekalb County 1 WNW Ft Payne 14 0104CST 0300CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Flash Flood

Flash flooding occurred with around 12 inches of water over the road from near the bridge on Airport road on Alabama highway 35 in Fort Payne, Alabama, between the hospital and Interstate 59 from a tributary to Big Wills Creek.

A strong cold front swept across the region late on the 13th into the 14th across Ohio, Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys and interacted with a moist and unstable air mass. This led to two waves of severe thunderstorms for northern Alabama. During the early evening hours, one cluster of thunderstorms raced northward from central Alabama at speeds of 50 to 60 mph, and produced areas of significant wind damage, snapping power poles, and large trees. A couple of discrete supercells developed in northeast Mississippi ahead of a squall line and tracked across northwest Alabama. This was followed by the squall line which slowly migrated across the area producing one EF-1 tornado in Colbert County. Sporadic wind damage, and heavy rainfall accompanied this secondary wave which also led to isolated flash flooding.

Heavy rain in excess of 2 on the Tohono O'Odham Nation caused several road closures for an extended period of time. Highway 86 became impassable in several locations between mile markers 76 and 106. One motorist was rescued from flood waters near mile post 79 after attempting to cross them with their vehicle. High flows on the Hickiwan Wash near its confluence with the San Simon Wash near Highway 86 were exacerbated by the compromise of several earthen berms designed to protect the highway. High flows along the San Simon Wash continued downstream from there to the confluence with the Vamori Wash near Santa Cruz, where Indian Route 21 was impassable, then south to the International Border. High flows occurred on the Santa Rosa Wash from Highway 86 downstream into Pinal County causing the closure of Indian Route 15 at North Komelik.

Heavy rainfall of over 1 inch in less than 45 minutes caused flooding of roadways and washes in the Tucson metro area. One car got stuck in the flood waters of Arcadia Wash south of Speedway on Tucson's east side, while Tanque Verde north of Catalina Highway had to be closed for a time due to flash flooding. Many city streets were covered with several inches of water. Simon, once rated a Category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 135 mph, was the fourth tropical system of 2014 to bring rainfall to southeastern Arizona. An upper level disturbance located over the southwestern United States helped to advect copious amounts of moisture into the area ahead of Simon, which eventually produced heavy rainfall and flooding on October 8 and 9. Numerous roads on the Tohono O'Odham Nation were closed for more than 24 hours due to flooding.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms developed across the far eastern portion of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area during the early morning hours on October 9th, and they persisted into the middle of the morning. Due to an influx of tropical moisture from former tropical storm Simon, the storms produced very heavy rain with peak rain rates approaching 2 inches per hour. The heavy rain led to significant urban and small stream flooding across portions of east Mesa and Apache Junction, especially along the Superstition Freeway. According to a trained spotter located 1 mile southeast of Apache Junction, at 0816MST there was water 5 inches deep flooding the intersection of the Superstition Freeway US 60 and Tomahawk road in Apache Junction. Flooding was also reported along a wash extending from the intersection of Ironwood Drive and 16th Avenue to the Superstition Freeway near Meridian Avenue.

The California drought continued in full force during the month of October, 2014. Exceptional drought was detected by the U.S. Drought Monitor for almost the entire Central California region. This extent of exceptional drought is extremely unusual for California. The 2013-2014 water year (July 1 - June 30) concluded with Fresno setting its second driest on record (4.81 inches) and Bakersfield setting its third driest (2.41 inches). There continues to be significant media coverage on the on-going drought conditions. These reports include discussion of significant re-allocation of water resources from the east to west side of the San Joaquin Valley, farmers forgoing planting of some crops, a decrease in the snow-related tourism activity in the Southern Sierra Nevada, reduction in air quality due to persistent stagnant air, loss or reduction of ground water, wells drying up in several communities leaving them with no water, and an unprecedented increase in fire danger across the Southern Sierra Nevada and Tehachapi Mountains. For the first time on record, red flag warnings were issued in January for not only the Southern Sierra Nevada and the Tehachapi Mountains but also the south end of the San Joaquin Valley.

A trough of low pressure moving into northern California brought no rain to central California, but did increase the westerly winds across the coastal mountains and into the west side of the San Joaquin Valley. These winds increased in the late afternoon and continued through the evening with gusts to 40 to 60 mph common through and below the passes and gaps in the coastal mountains, especially through and below Cottonwood Pass along Highway 41. Sunflower Valley APRS reported a peak wind gust of 59 mph at 1906 PST. Panoche Road RAWS reported a peak wind gust of 62 mph at 1907 PST. These strong winds were blowing across Interstate 5 and highway 41. Due to the extended period of drought across the San Joaquin Valley, the winds caused blowing dust across most of the west side of the valley. Visibility was reduced to near zero in blowing dust, resulting in stopped traffic along Interstate 5 and highway 41 and other county roads between Avenal and Lost Hills. There were at least 7 accidents reported and highway 41 was closed from near Avenal to where it intersects highway 46 in San Luis Obispo county for at least 3 hours.

The storm system that moved into central California on October 31, 2014 brought heavy snow in the mountains and significant rainfall to the San Joaquin Valley, along with gusty winds from the afternoon of October 30 to the morning of November 1. This was the first significant storm of winter 2014-2015 for central California. As the storm approached, winds began to blow through the passes of the coastal mountains into the west side of the San Joaquin Valley on the evening of October 30. Winds gusted 35 to 45 mph for several hours in the late afternoon and evening. Light rain arrived in the northwestern portion of the San Joaquin Valley, near Los Banos between 1 and 2 pm PST, but the more significant rain did not arrive until 4 pm PST on October 31. The rain spread slowly south and east across the Valley through the evening as snow developed in the Sierra Nevada. Ahead of the leading edge of precipitation, gusty winds developed, resulting in areas of blowing dust for a brief period before the rain began. Winds gusted up to 45 mph in Bakersfield with a report of wind damage. Rainfall amounts ranged from a minimum 0.03 inches in the Kern County Desert, to a maximum of 2.57 inches in the Sierra Foothills. Across the San Joaquin Valley, rain was in the 0.5 to 1.00 inch range. The heavy rain caused minor flooding on roadways, but in general was seen as beneficial due to the ongoing exceptional drought conditions. Snow amounts in the Sierra Nevada were 10 to 17 inches with the heaviest amounts occurring above 6000 feet. As much as 7 inches of snow was reported as low as 4000 feet elevation.

Torrential rainfall during the afternoon hours led to flash flooding in and near downtown West Palm Beach and as far north as Riviera Beach. Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office closed several roads in the area, including the area of Australian Avenue and 45th Street in West Palm Beach. Main impact was from impassable streets with no reports of significant structural flooding. Measured rainfall amounts were in the 5 to 8 inch range in less than 6 hours, with rainfall rates of 4-5 inches per hour during the height of the event. Maximum measured rainfall total was 8.78 inches in the northern West Palm Beach area near the Intracoastal Waterway. Damage total is estimated and based primarily on reports of impassable streets and stalled vehicles.

A nearly-stationary frontal boundary across South Florida led to periods of torrential downpours across central and northern Palm Beach County.

Gallatin County Shawneetown 13 1557CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Thunderstorm Wind (52EG) A storm chaser estimated winds gusted to 60 mph. A broken squall line oriented from north to south moved slowly eastward across southern Illinois. Individual storm cells within the line raced north-northeast at 50 to 65 mph. Storm development was fostered by modest solar heating as surface dew points climbed into the mid and upper 60's. Low level confluence ahead of a slow-moving surface low over southern Missouri aided the intensification of the squall line. Strengthening wind fields associated with an upper level trough approaching from the southern Plains contributed to isolated tornadoes with the longer-lived storms. Strong low-level winds, around 50 knots at 1 kilometer above the ground, enhanced the risk of mesovortices and isolated tornadoes within the squall line despite a dearth of instability. Note: The estimated wind gust of 52 knots is equivalent to 60 mph.

A deep closed low near Hudson's Bay on October 7th brought cyclonic flow to the Lower Ohio Valley. Disturbances rotating around this feature brought several rounds of convection from late morning through afternoon. Low freezing levels and veering and strengthening winds with height provided the potential for rotating storms and very large hail. During the late morning hours, a severe convective line segment exhibiting rotation moved southeast across southern Indiana, crossing the Ohio River just north of Louisville. This fast moving line of storms brought widespread wind damage and large hail to Clark County, Indiana. This initial round of storms left behind a stationary boundary across southern Indiana. Around mid-afternoon, two additional supercells developed about an hour apart very near central Clark County. These individual storms each produced large hail and occasional funnel clouds as they moved southeast towards Oldham County, Kentucky.

A broken squall line oriented from north to south moved slowly eastward across southwest Indiana. Individual storm cells within the line raced north-northeast at 50 to 65 mph. Storm development was fostered by modest solar heating as surface dew points climbed into the mid and upper 60's. Low level confluence ahead of a slow-moving surface low over southern Missouri aided the intensification of the squall line. Strengthening wind fields associated with an upper level trough approaching from the southern Plains contributed to isolated tornadoes with the longer-lived storms.

The season's first strong synoptic weather system moved through the central U.S. on the 13th into the 14th. The storm developed over the southern U.S. and moved from Oklahoma on the 13th into Illinois on the morning of the 14th. The system brought heavy rainfall to the east half of Iowa. Rainfall caused stream rises, but no major flooding occurred. Though moisture was drawn into the state, Iowa was clearly in the deformation zone of the storms The low level jet increased to around 40 kts, resulting in precipitable water values of nearly two standard deviation units above normal in the 1 to 1.25 inch range. Widespread rainfall amounts of one to two inches occurred over the east half of Iowa with a narrow band of 2 to 4 inch rainfall from south central into parts of east central Iowa. The heaviest rainfall was southeast of Pella in Marion County with 4.28 inches recorded. The heavy rain caused minor flooding along the mainstem Des Moines River at Eddyville and Ottumwa. The river crested one to one and one half feet over flood stage.

Wind gusts estimated. On the afternoon of Oct 1st a very unstable air mass as well as favorable winds moved into northeast KS. Several disturbances in the mid levels caused severe supercell thunderstorms to develop along a cold front draped across the region. These storms produced hail larger than golf balls and went through populated cities. There were also damaging winds mainly to trees. Luckily the lowest level winds were not stronger otherwise tornadoes would have been a possibility. The next morning a severe storm formed in central KS and moved eastward through northeast KS. This storm had damaging winds and large hail. Several cities reported significant damage including power poles and lines down, roof damage, and broken windows from this storm.

Shortly before sunrise on this Thursday morning this six-county North Central Kansas area endured its final severe thunderstorm of 2014, and considering the time of day, the semi-discrete storm's surprising furiosity made for a noteworthy event. In a mesoscale environment that appeared mainly supportive of non-severe elevated convection, this intense storm gradually became more surface-based as it first crossed southern Osborne County between 515-610 am CDT and then tore across the heart of Mitchell County from 610-700 am CDT before exiting the local area. While no verifying ground-truth severe weather reports were received from within Osborne and western Mitchell counties, that changed over eastern Mitchell County where there were numerous reports of large hail up to golf ball size, a measured wind gust of 73 MPH and estimated gusts up to 90 MPH. Not surprisingly, significant crop damage and some structure damage was reported, including windows broken out of homes and a destroyed farm Quonset building near Asherville. Also near Asherville, a semi truck slid off of Highway 24 in an area where golf ball size hail covered the road. The most intense core of this storm passed only a few miles to the south and east of Beloit, narrowly sparing the city. Before this storm made early-morning headlines, it initially appeared that this entire North Central Kansas area would miss out on severe weather given that other clusters of severe convection during the preceding 12 hours instead focused just to the north over south central Nebraska and to the east within northeast Kansas. However, as increasing large-scale ascent pushed into Kansas from the west during the pre-dawn hours and intercepted the western fringes of a modest instability axis, a small line of storms first showed signs of intensification in the Ellis and southern Rooks County area around 5 am CDT. Within a short time, a portion of this line morphed into a semi-discrete strong to severe storm across southern Osborne County before really taking off over Mitchell County after 6 am CDT. On the synoptic scale aloft, this early-autumn event focused just downstream from a sharpening mid-upper trough axis aligned at sunrise from the central Dakotas to a mid level vort max over southeast Colorado. At the surface, this storm was post-frontal, as it formed slightly behind a modest cold front that passed through North Central Kansas during the night. Instability-wise, there was seemingly little support for such a robust early-morning storm given that most-unstable CAPE was only analyzed to be around 500 J/kg in the presence of surface dewpoints generally in the mid-50s F. However, 0-6 kilometer deep layer wind shear was certainly supportive of potential severe weather, having risen into the 50-60 knot range ahead of the approaching trough. Note: The measured wind gust of 63 knots is equivalent to 72 mph.

A deep closed low near Hudson's Bay on October 7th brought cyclonic flow to the Lower Ohio Valley. Disturbances rotating around this feature brought several rounds of convection from late morning through the evening hours. Low freezing levels and veering and strengthening winds with height provided the ingredients for rotating storms and very large hail. During the late morning hours, a severe convective line segment exhibiting areas of rotation moved southeast across southern Indiana, crossed the Ohio River just north of Louisville, and moved across the northern Bluegrass Region north of Frankfort and Lexington. This fast moving line of storms brought widespread wind damage and large hail to Clark County, Indiana and along its path across the northern Bluegrass. Rotation increased within this storm complex when it was north of Lexington, when it spawned a family of relatively weak tornadoes. This initial round of storms left behind a stationary boundary. By mid afternoon, a whole series of rotating supercells developed along this boundary, each of then tracking essentially along the same path from southern Indiana into Oldham County and across the northern Bluegrass. These individual storms each produced large hail and occasional funnel clouds.

A severe weather outbreak occurred across eastern Kentucky during the late afternoon and evening hours of October 7th. Three confirmed tornadoes occurred in Bath and Pike counties (2 in Bath and 1 in Pike). These twisters caused varying degrees of damage to trees, power lines, and various structures in both counties. These tornadoes were small and extremely short lived, which made them quite difficult to detect on radar. Numerous reports of large hail and wind damage were also received during this event. Some minor flooding occurred where numerous thunderstorms tracked across the same areas. The storms formed in a warm and only slightly unstable air mass that had set up across central and eastern Kentucky. The primary trigger for the severe and tornadic storms was a very strong and dynamic middle and upper level wind field that was present over the region. The rapid change in wind speed with height caused most every thunderstorm that formed on this day to rotate. A few of these circulations were able to reach the surface in Bath and Pike counties where the tornadoes were reported.

In Owen County, a storm survey revealed that a weak tornado touched down west of Kentucky State Route 1883 with damage to some trees. More tree damage was found along Paynes Run Road, in addition to an outbuilding that was destroyed with debris lofted into an adjacent valley. Where Paynes Run Road intersects with New Columbus Road, several homes sustained minor roof damage with windows blown out, as well as significant tree damage. The tornado continued along New Columbus Road where a porch was lifted from a home (its final resting place still is unknown) and roof damage occurred to the home itself. From here the tornado damage became intermittent along the south side of New Columbus Road and Dudley Pike, with instances of tree damage, outbuildings destroyed and minor roof damage to several homes. The last instances of tornado damage in Owen County were found along portions of Leaning Oak Road where damage consisted of peeled back roofing material on barns, many trees snapped or uprooted and roof damage to homes. According to the survey from NWS Louisville, the storm quickly crossed into Scott County and struck North Rays Fork Road where it snapped and uprooted trees. Moving to the east-southeast, tree damage was found along South Rays Fork Road east of Stonewall. The tornado lifted just west of the Harrison County line. The only structural damage along the path was to a home near the top of a small hill close to the end of the path. The porch roof was ripped from the home and thrown over the building, with significant roof damage. Also, an above ground pool was destroyed. The damage in Scott County supports an estimated maximum wind speed of 107 mph (EF1).

KENTUCKY, Northern

A damage survey revealed a swath of wind damage that originated just southwest of the Simon Kenton subdivision on the west side of U.S. Highway 62. In this subdivision, tree damage was widespread and a few homes suffered minor roof damage. There was minor tree and fence damage on the east side of U.S. highway 62 on Algonquin Drive. Wind damage was also observed on the north side of the AA Highway at the Road Ranger gas station, where several gas pumps were blown over, and adjacent empty semi-trailers were tipped over. A Taco Bell sign on the south side of the AA Highway was damaged, and another semi- trailer tipped over behind the Big Sandy Outlet. The swath of damaging winds began spreading in width at this point as it crossed Maple Leaf Road. The wider swath of damage consisted of several homes with siding and roof damage, numerous snapped or broken trees, and broken windows on both sides of Maple Leaf Road. Minor damage was also found on the east side of Maple Leaf Road into several subdivisions and along Hill City Road and Medford Heights Drive. Minimal tree damage was found along Highway 11 to the east, suggesting an end point of the more organized swath of wind damage. It should be noted that this swath of damaging wind was also sampled by a Kentucky Mesonet site near the Maysville Community Technical College (just south of the Simon Kenton subdivision mentioned above). A 60 mph wind gust was recorded at this station between 3:50 PM and 3:55 PM.

Three water rescues were conducted for people stranded in vehicles, including an eight-month pregnant woman. Water was reported within three inches of a seat top. Flooding was also reported along a couple of other back roads.

A solid squall line oriented from north to south moved eastward at 30 mph across western Kentucky. Individual storm cells within the line raced north-northeast at 50 to 65 mph. Storm development was fostered by modest solar heating as surface dew points climbed into the mid 60's. Low level confluence ahead of a slow-moving surface low over southern Missouri aided the intensification of the squall line. Strengthening wind fields associated with an upper level trough approaching from the southern Plains contributed to a few organized and longer-lived storm structures. Strong low-level winds, around 50 knots at 1 kilometer above the ground, enhanced the risk of mesovortices and damaging wind gusts within the squall line, despite marginal instability.

MARYLAND, Central

The tornado is estimated to have touched down at 1:13 pm, approximately two hundred yards south of Knights Bridge Road in Savage. The tornado then uprooted and downed a large tree that fell onto the south-facing side of an apartment complex on Stebbing Way. Other large branches were snapped off nearby trees along the hill side south of Stebbing Way. A nearby street sign was also snapped. The radar couplet signature weakened and dissipated after 1:14 pm prior to reaching Gorman Road. Estimated maximum wind speeds were 55-65 mph. A cut off low over the Midwest pushed a cold front through the Mid Atlantic during the morning hours. Scattered showers with embedded thunderstorms formed along this front in a strong directional and magnitudinal sheared environment. Diurnal heating led to minimal instability. The combination of the strong sheared environment and low CAPE resulted in a weak tornado across Howard County.

A broken squall line oriented from north to south moved slowly eastward across southeast Missouri. Individual storm cells within the line raced north-northeast at 50 to 65 mph. Storm development was fostered by modest solar heating as surface dew points climbed into the mid and upper 60's. Low level confluence ahead of a slow-moving surface low over south central Missouri aided the intensification of the squall line. Strengthening wind fields associated with an upper level trough approaching from the southern Plains contributed to isolated tornadoes with the longer-lived storms. Strong low-level winds, around 50 knots at 1 kilometer above the ground, enhanced the risk of mesovortices and isolated tornadoes within the squall line despite a dearth of instability. Note: The estimated wind gust of 70 knots is equivalent to 81 mph.

Although radar data suggested that isolated severe convection lingered into the early morning hours of the 2nd, all ground-truth severe weather reports occurred on the 1st between 730-1130 pm CDT, in areas west of Highway 14 and south of Highway 92. The highlight of the evening was an elevated supercell that tracked east generally down Highway 6 through Adams and Clay counties between 8-10 pm CDT, yielding numerous reports of hail up to half dollar size in places including Hastings. Along with the hail, this storm produced strong to marginally severe wind including measured gusts of 55 MPH at Hastings airport and 66 MPH at a mesonet site five miles southwest of Harvard. Not surprisingly, this combination of hail and wind damaged siding on area homes. Outside the path of this primary severe storm, there were several other quarter size hail reports during the evening, including near Naponee and Franklin in Franklin County and at Amherst and near Miller in Buffalo County. Due to the fairly progressive nature of most convection, the majority of South Central Nebraska received no more than 0.50-1.00 inch of rain, although small pockets topped out closer to two inches, including 1.88 two miles west of Kenesaw (NeRAIN). Taking a closer look at convective mode and timing, the first isolated strong to severe storms flared up between 630-800 pm CDT within various central counties including Franklin, Kearney, Adams and Buffalo. As this initial isolated activity drifted east or northeast during the ensuing few hours, by far the most organized storm was the one over Adams/Clay counties, which assumed elevated supercell characteristics. A bit later in the evening mainly between 10 pm-12 am CDT, another isolated strong to severe storm drifted across northeastern Dawson and northern Buffalo counties. However, the main feature of the later evening and post-midnight hours was a north-to-south oriented squall line that first entered far western portions of South Central Nebraska between 11 pm-12 am CDT. Initially, it appeared this convective line might become legitimately severe, but in fact it yielded only a few reports of sub-severe hail and wind as it limped into the Highway 281 corridor counties by 2 am CDT. Just as it appeared any severe threat might be over with for the night, the southern end of the line morphed into a semi- discrete, radar-indicated severe storm that tracked across mainly southern portions of Webster, Nuckolls and Thayer counties between 2-4 am CDT before exiting the local area. However, this storm yielded no verifying ground-truth reports, and in its wake, only scattered showers and a few very weak thunderstorms lingered over South Central Nebraska through the remainder of the night. On the synoptic scale aloft, this early-autumn severe event focused just downstream from a sharpening mid-upper trough axis aligned from the far western Dakotas to the Four Corners region at midnight. Some of the initial early-evening convection was likely aided by subtle forcing from a weak lead wave out ahead of this parent trough. At the surface during the evening, forcing for convection was also rather nebulous, although a weak trough axis was draped through the general area. Toward midnight and through the early morning hours of the 2nd, a more organized cold front pushed through South Central Nebraska and helped promote the increasing areal coverage of convection. Instability-wise, this was not an overly-favorable setup for severe weather as surface dewpoints only averaged in the mid-50s F and most-unstable CAPE only peaked around 1000 J/kg. However, 0-6 kilometer deep layer wind shear was fairly strong at generally 40-50 knots, helping to enhance storm organization.

The low pressure system associated with the cold frontal passage on the 21st intensified as it reached the Middle Atlantic coastal waters and only slowly drifted off to the northeast. This not only produced strong gusty northeast winds and some heavy rain on the 22nd, but also produced minor tidal flooding during the morning high tide cycles on the 23rd (the highest) and 24th. The minor tidal flooding caused some roadway flooding. Peak wind gusts reached around 45 to 50 mph along the New Jersey coast during the day on the 22nd and knocked down some weak tree limbs and power lines. Ocean County was most affected. Peak wind gusts included 51 mph at Harvey Cedars (Ocean County), 47 mph on Kite Island (Ocean County) and 45 mph at Barnegat Inlet (Ocean County). Highest tides included 6.48 feet above mean lower low water at Atlantic City (Atlantic County); minor tidal flooding starts at 6.0 feet above mean lower low water, 7.02 feet above mean lower low water at Cape May (Cape May County) and 6.78 feet above mean lower low water at Sandy Hook (Monmouth County). Minor tidal flooding at the two latter locations starts at 6.7 feet above mean lower low water. The onshore flow also caused minor flooding along the tidal Watson Creek in Manasquan (Monmouth County). The creek crested at 5.92 feet. Minor flooding starts at 5.5 feet. The low pressure system was off the New Jersey coast at 2 a.m. EDT on the 22nd. It then retrograded to the southwest toward Delaware and at 2 p.m. EDT on the 22nd returned nearly to the same position. At 2 a.m. EDT on the 23rd, it was only slightly farther offshore, but deepened (strengthened) from 1008 millibars to 998 millibars. It then started to drift offshore slightly faster without much additional strengthening. At 8 a.m. EDT on the 23rd it was southeast of Montauk Point, Long Island and at 8 p.m. EDT on the 23rd.reached near Nantucket, Massachusetts.

Pockets of near to above normal rainfall were observed over southern, western and northeast New Mexico, but a majority of the state experienced below normal precipitation. Widespread wetting rain fell over central and especially western New Mexico from the 8th through 10th associated with the remnants of a tropical cyclone with another precipitation-producing system the 12th to 13th, including a dusting of snow on the high peaks of the northern mountains. Another active and moderately wet period occurred from the 18th through 22nd followed by an overall dry period the remainder of the month. As a result, there was very little change in drought status during the month though extreme drought across the northwest corner of the state decreased slightly to less than 3 percent. Approximately 30 percent of the state was classified in severe drought or worse, primarily the northern and western halves. The southeast quarter of New Mexico to include much of Lincoln, Chaves, Eddy and Lea counties were classified as abnormally dry if not better.

The remnant circulation of Hurricane Simon slowly moved north along Baja California and into southwestern Arizona through the first week of October. This tropical system induced a regional-scale fetch of moist southerly flow over the southwestern United States for several days through the 10th.

The first significant storm system of the fall season raced southeast out of the Pacific Northwest and into the central Rockies on the 12th. The combination of powerful upper level winds and a potent surface cold front produced widespread strong winds over New Mexico. Enough mid-level moisture was present to fuel scattered showers and thunderstorms over central and eastern New Mexico. The convective activity enhanced the transport of stronger winds aloft to the surface and resulted in several reports of wind gusts near 70 mph. Some very light high elevation snowfall was also reported around the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Note: The measured wind gust of 70 knots is equivalent to 81 mph.

A cold front in association with the upper level trough was rapidly moving eastward through Western Oklahoma and Texas. Overnight across Southeast Oklahoma, Southwest Arkansas, Northeast Texas and Northwest Louisiana, moderate instability was in place with increasing low and mid-level shear as the upper trough approached from the west. Storms eventually erupted ahead of the cold front across Central Oklahoma and Northern Texas, maturing into a squall line as it approached the region during the predawn hours of Monday, Oct. 13th. As the squall line traversed through the region, widespread wind damage was reported associated with straight line winds. Several short track, intense tornadoes developed along the leading edge of the squall line as well across portions of Northeast Texas, Southwest Arkansas and Northern Louisiana. The storms finally exited the region during the afternoon hours of Oct. 13th.

OKLAHOMA, Panhandle

OKZ001>003 Beaver - Cimarron - Texas 01 0000CST 31 2359CST 0 0 Drought

October saw above normal precipitation for the western two thirds of the Oklahoma Panhandle, with more scattered rain falling over Beaver County. Most areas measured at least 1.0 to 1.5 inches during the month, and an isolated area or two saw over 3 inches. Throughout the month, Extreme (D3) Drought conditions persisted across the central Oklahoma Panhandle, while western and eastern portions of the Panhandle were rated at Severe (D2) Drought conditions. Guymon recorded 1.88 inches of precipitation for the month (0.31 inches above normal). Soil moisture was rated mostly short to adequate during the month. Crops fared well during the month, and some development was even limited by too much rain and cloudiness. Rangeland and pastures continued to improve in some areas, but cattle herd sizes remained limited due to prolonged drought. Upper soil zones were mostly in the 10 to 30 percent full range, with locations in the eastern Panhandle generally drier. Deeper soil moisture was still below normal in much of the Oklahoma Panhandle, but values were estimated to be greater than 150 percent of normal where rainfall had been most frequent over the previous few months. The Palmer Drought Severity Index indicated a rating of Moderate Drought for the Oklahoma Panhandle. No burn bans were in effect. Reservoirs and stream flows across the Oklahoma Panhandle were generally below normal levels through October. Economic losses due to the drought through October were predominantly the result of supplemental watering in the driest areas and supplemental feed for cattle on drought-thinned rangeland and pastures.

October saw below normal precipitation for much of the Texas Panhandle, though several episodes of rainfall did keep moisture in the Panhandle throughout the month. Most areas measured at least half an inch during the month, with scattered areas measuring as much as 4 to 5 inches. Extreme (D3) Drought remained along a line from east of Dalhart to near Clarendon and in the extreme northeastern Panhandle. The southwestern Texas Panhandle remained a mix of Abnormally Dry (D0) to Moderate (D1) Drought conditions following rain from September and October, and areas surrounding Perryton improved to Moderate (D1) Drought conditions during October. Otherwise, the remainder of the Panhandles were rated at Severe (D2) Drought conditions. Amarillo recorded 1.08 inches of precipitation for the month (0.58 inches below normal), Dalhart recorded 1.01 inches of precipitation (0.46 inches below normal), and Borger recorded 0.85 inches of precipitation (0.87 inches below normal). Soil moisture was rated mostly short to adequate during the month. Crops fared well during the month, and some development was even limited by too much rain and cloudiness. Rangeland and pasture continued to improve in some areas, but cattle herd sizes remained limited due to prolonged drought. Upper soil zones were mostly in the 10 to 30 percent full range, with locations in the western Panhandle generally drier. Deeper soil moisture was still below normal in much of the Texas Panhandle, but values were estimated to be greater than 150 percent of normal where rainfall had been most frequent over the previous few months. The Palmer Drought Severity Index indicated a rating of Moderate Drought to Near Normal conditions for the Texas Panhandle. Countywide burn bans were supported in several counties.

Stream flows across the Texas Panhandle ranged from near normal to below normal during October. The reservoirs of Lake Meredith and Palo Duro were near 5 percent and 2 percent capacity respectively, and Greenbelt Lake was below 13 percent capacity. Water watches for several public water systems persisted through October while voluntary to mandatory mild water restrictions were continued. Economic losses due to the drought through October were predominantly the result of supplemental watering in the driest areas and supplemental feed for cattle on drought-thinned rangeland and pastures.

At the surface, a warm front was rapidly moving northward across East Texas and North Louisiana with low level moisture returning quickly in the wake of the northward moving warm front. A cold front in association with the upper level trough was rapidly moving eastward through Western Oklahoma and Texas. Overnight across Southeast Oklahoma, Southwest Arkansas, Northeast Texas and Northwest Louisiana, moderate instability was in place with increasing low and mid-level shear as the upper trough approached from the west. Storms eventually erupted ahead of the cold front across Central Oklahoma and Northern Texas, maturing into a squall line as it approached the region during the predawn hours of Monday, Oct. 13th. As the squall line traversed through the region, widespread wind damage was reported associated with straight line winds. Several short track, intense tornadoes developed along the leading edge of the squall line as well across portions of Northeast Texas, Southwest Arkansas and Northern Louisiana. The storms finally exited the region during the afternoon hours of Oct. 13th. Post-event Storm Surveys determined that 6 tornadoes occurred with this severe weather outbreak, one of which produced 1 fatality and 4 injuries in Little River County, Arkansas. Another tornado produced widespread damage across Ouachita Parish in Monroe, Louisiana. Note: The estimated wind gust of 57 knots is equivalent to 66 mph.

After a review of radar observations, the public and broadcast Media reports, the National Weather Service in Baltimore MD/Washington DC has confirmed an EF-0 tornado touched down near Belle Haven in Eastern Fairfax County, Virginia and continued north on an approximate 1.5 mile intermittent damage path to the City of Alexandria before dissipating. This review is based on corroborating evidence of observed damage locations and rotational velocity couplets from the Federal Aviation Administrations Terminal Doppler Weather Radars at Washington Reagan National Airport and Joint Base Andrews, along with National Weather Service KLWX WSR-88D radar in Sterling, VA. The tornado is estimated to have touched down at 12:23 pm in southeastern Fairfax County, where there was a tree down near the intersection of Hunt Road and Belle Haven Road. The tornado continued north across the Belle Haven Country Club where more large tree limbs were snapped. The tornado then briefly moved into the City of Alexandria, likely lifting across Interstate 495 at the intersection of George Washington Parkway, where large tree branches were also downed. Several more large tree branches were snapped in the immediate adjacent neighborhood to the north before the radar couplet signature weakened after 12:26 pm. Estimated maximum winds were 55-65 mph.

WEST VIRGINIA, Southeast

A high end EF1 tornado, with maximum winds estimated at 105 mph, first touched down at 1139 PM EDT around two miles northeast of Matoka in a forested area, downing numerous trees. It then crossed Beeson Road where three homes sustained minor damage along with a barn and several more trees. Additional trees were then snapped off as the tornado initially crossed Little Rich Creek Road and then proceeded to cause severe damage to a mobile home at another location along Rich Creek Road. A mother and her son sustained non-life threatening injuries at the mobile home location. More trees were then uprooted along Rich Creek. Finally, as the tornado crossed Sharver Road, minor damage occurred to a house and a small shed before the tornado lifted prior to reaching Beckley Road. Damage values are estimated.

Showers and thunderstorms developed in the vicinity of a warm front that was draped from southern Ohio across the southern Appalachian region. A couple of the storms across southeast West Virginia had enough low level rotation in them to produce in one instance a tornado in Mercer County, and one with damaging winds in Summers County.

Strong winds blew across east central Wisconsin, producing several measured gusts to around 50 mph, as low pressure passed east of the state. The winds associated with the low may have been enhanced by a gravity wave. The strong winds downed numerous trees, branches, and power lines. More than 14,000 customers were without power at the height of the event. Some of the strongest measured wind gusts included: 53 mph at Austin Straubel International Airport (Brown Co.), 52 mph at Shawano Municipal Airport (Shawano Co.), and 51 mph at Outagamie County Regional Airport.

Storm Data Disclosure

Storm Data is an official publication of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) which documents the occurrence of storms and other significant weather phenomena having sufficient intensity to cause loss of life, injuries, significant property damage, and/or disruption to commerce. In addition, it is a partial record of other significant meteorological events, such as record maximum or minimum temperatures or precipitation that occurs in connection with another event.

Some of the information appearing in Storm Data may have been provided by or gathered from sources outside the National Weather Service (NWS), such as the media, law enforcement and/or other government agencies, private companies, individuals, etc. An effort is made to use the best available information, but because of time and resource constraints, information from these sources may be unverified by the NWS. Therefore, when using information from Storm Data, customers should be cautious as the NWS does not guarantee the accuracy or validity of the information. Further, when it is apparent information appearing in Storm Data originated from a source outside the National Weather Service (frequently credit is provided), Storm Data customers requiring additional information should contact that source directly. In most cases, NWS employees will not have the knowledge to respond to such requests. In cases of legal proceedings, under Department of Commerce regulations and/or rules of the court, NWS employees are not legally obligated to provide written or verbal testimony.

Fatality Codes: For events that include a fatality, there is a code containing the gender, age and fatality location at the end of the event narrative. 1st -letter: Gender (M/F) / 2nd -numbers: Age / 3rd -letters: Fatality location (see table below) Example: M51IW – Male, 51 years of age, fatality occurred In Water.

Other Notes:

An “Episode” is an entire storm system and can contain many different types of events.

An “Event” is an individual type of storm event.

When listing wind speed values under “Character of Storm”, i.e. High Wind (G81): The G indicates a “Gust” which is a peak 5-second averaged wind speed in Knots (kts). 1 kt. = 1.152 mph. This number can be either E (estimated) by damage caused, or M (measured) by known calibrated anemometers. Examples: (M61) = measured 61 knots; (E75) = estimated at 75 knots.

All wind speeds listed are estimated by NWS personnel by the amount and type of damage unless otherwise noted with an “M” which represents an actual wind speed as measured by official NWS approved anemometer.

When listing hail size under “Character of Storm”, ex. Hail (2.25), the hail size is given in inches and hundredths of inches.

When listing property and crop damage, the figures indicated are the best guess made by the NWS from the available sources of information at the time of the printing.

The fatalities, injuries, and damage amounts appearing in tropical cyclone events are attributed only to wind damage experienced in the coastal counties/parishes listed. Other tropical cyclone related events such as tornadoes and flooding are listed within their separate event types.

The Saffir-Simpson Scale

Category One Hurricane:

Winds 74-95 mph (64-82 kts or 119-153 kph). Storm surge generally 4-5 ft above normal. No real damage to building structures. Damage primarily to unanchored mobile homes, shrubbery, and trees. Some damage to poorly constructed signs. Also, some coastal road flooding and minor pier damage.

Category Two Hurricane:

Winds 96-110 mph (83-95 kts or 154-177 kph). Storm surge generally 6-8 feet above normal. Some roofing material, door, and window damage of buildings. Considerable damage to shrubbery and trees with some trees blown down. Considerable damage to mobile homes, poorly constructed signs, and piers. Coastal and low-lying escape routes flood 2-4 hours before arrival of the hurricane center. Small craft in unprotected anchorages break moorings.

Category Three Hurricane:

Winds 111-130 mph (96-113 kts or 178-209 kph). Storm surge generally 9-12 ft above normal. Some structural damage to small residences and utility buildings with a minor amount of curtainwall failures. Damage to shrubbery and trees with foliage blown off trees and large trees blown down. Mobile homes and poorly constructed signs are destroyed. Low-lying escape routes are cut by rising water 3-5 hours before arrival of the hurricane center. Flooding near the coast destroys smaller structures with larger structures damaged by battering of floating debris. Terrain continuously lower than 5 ft above mean sea level may be flooded inland 8 miles (13 km) or more. Evacuation of low-lying residences with several blocks of the shoreline may be required.

Category Four Hurricane:

Winds 131-155 mph (114-135 kts or 210-249 kph). Storm surge generally 13-18 ft above normal. More extensive curtainwall failures with some complete roof structure failures on small residences. Shrubs, trees, and all signs are blown down. Complete destruction of mobile homes. Extensive damage to doors and windows. Low-lying escape routes may be cut by rising water 3-5 hours before arrival of the hurricane center. Major damage to lower floors of structures near the shore. Terrain lower than 10 ft above sea level may be flooded requiring massive evacuation of residential areas as far inland as 6 miles (10 km).

Category Five Hurricane:

Winds greater than 155 mph (135 kts or 249 kph). Storm surge generally greater than 18 ft above normal. Complete roof failure on many residences and industrial buildings. Some complete building failures with small utility buildings blown over or away. All shrubs, trees, and signs blown down. Complete destruction of mobile homes. Severe and extensive window and door damage. Low-lying escape routes are cut by rising water 3-5 hours before arrival of the hurricane center. Major damage to lower floors of all structures located less than 15 ft above sea level and within 500 yards of the shoreline. Massive evacuation of residential areas on low ground within 5-10 miles (8-16 km) of the shoreline may be required.
