Tornado #1 - EMINENCE/PLEASUREVILLE HENRY COUNTY Date April 5, 2017 Time (Local) 5:54pm - 5:56pm EDT EF Rating 1 Est. Peak Winds 100 mph Path Length 1.6 mi Max Width 100 yards Injuries/Deaths 0/0 Summary: The National Weather Service surveyed a small tornado path in Henry County. There were also areas of wind and hail damage along US 421. First evidence of tornado damage was just south of US 421 where the tornado passed between two farms. Barns on either side of the path were damaged with the debris thrown clockwise which showed an anticyclonic rotation. Also, a nearby house’s siding was severely damaged by hail, with witnesses saying the hail was several inches deep. The tornado crossed US 421 and continued northeast. The last evidence of a tornado was at a house on Point Pleasant Road. The tornado blew in a garage door and caused siding damage again due to hail. Thanks to Emergency Manager Jody Rucker for his help with this survey. Track Map Downloadable KMZ File
