Survey Summary:

The National Weather Service has confirmed an EF1 tornado in
Northridge in Clark County, Ohio.

The first evidence for this tornado was on the west side of Derr 
Road, where a tree was downed on a camper. Sporadic damage was 
noted in the next subdivision to the east, with some minor 
structural damage and numerous trees downed.

The most significant damage occurred north of Moorefield Road, 
along Ridgewood Road West, Waltin Lane, and Midland Road. Two 
homes had large portions of their roofs removed, with damage 
estimated to 100 MPH, within the EF1 category on the Enhanced 
Fujita Scale. One section of a roof was thrown across the road and
into the backyard of another property. Additional debris was 
lofted and thrown into multiple trees. Shingle damage was noted on
numerous homes, and tree damage was widespread through this 
neighborhood.

Damage to the east of Ridgewood Road East was more limited and 
sporadic, but several trees and large limbs were downed on Middle 
Urbana Road, Windy Ridge Drive, and Morris Road.

The National Weather Service would like to thank the Clark 
County Emergency Management Agency and officials with Moorefield 
Township for their assistance with this survey.
