Event narrative (NOAA)
One of the strongest wind gusts of this event was recorded at the Clarksville ASOS site with a non-thunderstorm wind gust of 79 mph. This is the highest wind gust ever reported at the Clarksville ASOS where records go back to April 2001. Several hours of severe non-thunderstorm winds resulted in numerous damage reports, including downed and uprooted trees, downed powerlines, and roof and other property damage across all of Montgomery County. Some of the most significant damage was reported near Fredonia where H & S Farms reported that their greenhouse was destroyed and a roof was torn off their building. Damages are estimated.
