Survey Summary:

The National Weather Service conducted a storm survey and found a
tornado occurred on Sunday, May 26th, 2024. A small short lived
tornado started east of Albany along Central Union Road (KY 415)
with tree damage along a treeline just east of Branham Road. The
tornado continued and left tree damage to another tree line
between two farms south of Central Union Road. A barn had
significant damage consistent with EF1 winds that was completely
demolished. The barn damage was sent in varying directions
consistent with a tornado. The tornado then continued toward
Brahnam Road where a residence had a 2x4 wood plank sent through
the kitchen window and tree damage at the home was in varying
directions. The tornado then lifted just beyond the residence
where no other damage was observed.

The National Weather Service would like to thank Clinton County
Emergency Management for their partnership and assistance on this
survey.
