Survey Summary:
A deadly pre-dawn tornado spun up at a kink in a line of severe
thunderstorms, in Clark Mills of Oneida County NY.
Numerous trees were uprooted or snapped, with many of them on
structures. 3 homes were sliced or crushed by trees. 2 residents
were killed in one of the heavily-damaged homes, and a third
fatality occurred on the crushed end of another residence.
The tornado quickly became intense while traveling southwest
initially, and unfortunately destroyed a historic grist mill along
Oriskany Creek. The tornado then became absorbed into the
southward motion of the line of thunderstorms, traveling along
Kirkland Avenue before ending. While there was this focused
corridor of convergent enhanced EF1 tornado damage, other
scattered tree damage could be found throughout the area
associated with damaging winds up to 70 mph from the line of
severe storms.

The National Weather Service would like to thank impacted
residents for sharing their accounts, as well as Oneida County
Emergency Services, Town of Kirkland Department of Highways,
New York Office of Emergency Management, and Clark Mills
Volunteer Fire Department for their tremendous assistance
in conducting this storm survey.

Survey Summary:
A pre-dawn line of severe thunderstorms dropped across Oneida
County. Rotation occurred in a kink in the line of storms,
generating an EF1 tornado from just south of Westmoreland,
through the western edge of the Hamilton College Campus, to near
Clinton in Oneida County NY. Numerous trees were uprooted or
snapped, and a farm sustained significant damage to its silo and
outbuildings. Debris from the farm was lofted at least 1000 feet
across the field, with some of it impaling the ground as debris
missiles. While there was this focused corridor of convergent
enhanced EF1 tornado damage, other scattered tree damage could be
found throughout the area associated with damaging winds up to
70 mph from the line of severe storms.

The National Weather Service would like to thank impacted residents
as well as a trained skywarn spotter for sharing their accounts of
this tornado. We also thank Oneida County Emergency Services,and the
Hamilton College Emergency Manager for their tremendous assistance
in completing this survey.
