💨 As damage surveys continue, we are seeing evidence of a large swath of straight-line winds associated with the August 11th storm.

Radar data from the National Weather Service showed circulation over the northern portion of Choctaw Lake. As that circulation dissipated, a large swath of severe straight-line winds moved southeast, continuing through areas north of London. The damage path includes intermittent corn damage across multiple fields and severe straight-line wind damage to trees in several areas.

Thank you to everyone who has sent us photos, videos, and information regarding damage in areas outside of Choctaw Lake. Your reports have been extremely helpful as we continue to assess the full impact of the storm. We truly appreciate your help!
