            A swath of straight line winds of 75 to 85
            mph began about 6 miles northwest of
            Johnsonville, IL and extended east northeast
            into the town of Rinard. Most of the damage
            in this swath included uprooted trees, as
            well as trees or large tree branches
            snapped. There were some homes that were
            damaged due to trees falling on them.
            Several power lines and poles were also
            broken because of fallen trees. A localized
            downburst occurred within this area of
            straight line winds on the south end of
            Brush Creek Campground, just west northwest
            of Sam Dale Lake. Winds of around 100 mph
            caused a small swath of several dozen
            snapped pine trees. A few buildings on the
            campground were also damaged.
