A downburst occurred over the eastern portion of Le Ann Lake on Waldron Road where trees were damaged and a sunroom on a west facing home had its roof lifted and thrown over the house. Damage was somewhat more limited east of Waldron Rd until approaching the western side of Lake Somerset where more concentrated tree damage along the west and north side of the lake. The extent of the tree damage was not widespread across this area, but the trees that were damaged were large and mainly healthy. Wind speeds of 70 to locally as much as 80 mph are estimated.
