The National Weather Service has conducted preliminary damage surveys in Freestone and Limestone counties following the severe storms that moved through the area Sunday April 28, 2024. Two tornadoes were located in Freestone County: One EF-0 southwest of Dew with a maximum wind speed of 80 mph, and an additional EF-0 in the town of Dew also with a maximum wind speed of 80 mph. A brief EF-0 was found near Personville in Limestone County with maximum wind speeds of 75 mph. Storm damage in the Burlington area in Milam County is still being assessed. Further assessment with additional results of the survey is expected to be completed and transmitted via a Public Information Statement this evening. However, a final report may take multiple days to compile if additional surveys are deemed necessary. A major contribution to the success of our severe weather warning program is the receipt of storm reports from all of our customers and partners.
