Survey Summary:
The weak tornado began on a property near Payne Road just west of
Marysville, Ohio. The tornado toppled a small silo, several small-
to medium-sized trees, and caused minor damage to an older barn and
a few roof shingles. Additional damage occurred to a large metal barn
located around a third of a mile to the north. This barn sustained
uplift of the roof along with partial collapse of the metal walls. In
addition, several trees were snapped in the woods adjacent to the
barn.

The National Weather Service would like to thank Union County
Emergency Management for their timely coordination of damage
assessment results and assistance with this survey.
