Survey Summary:

The National Weather Service conducted a storm survey and found a
tornado occurred on Sunday, May 26th 2024.  Damage was observed
to have started just north of the intersection of Wisdom Dock
Road and Charlie Murrey Road near Shipley where there were
uprooted trees in farm fields consistent with EF0 85 mph wind
speeds. The tornado then crossed Littles Road where damage to a
residence porch occurred with more tree damage. The most notable
tree damage occurred along Littles Lane where two barns were
destroyed at a residence with winds consistent with EF1 105 mph.
Damage was thrown in varying directions, but the most notable was
several impalements of 2x4 wood planks into the nearby corn
field. Eyewitnesses also had pictures of the tornado from just
to the north of this location that clearly showed rotation. The
tornado ended just north of a neighborhood along Schooner Landing
Road.

The National Weather Service in Louisville would like to thank
Clinton County Emergency management for their assistance on this
survey.
