Damage Reported In Cumberland After Tuesday Weather

Damages reported in Cumberland County after thunderstorms moved through Tuesday afternoon.

EMA Director Travis Cole said the event was in a more isolated area of the county called Tabor Loop.

“Which we had a tornado there a couple of years ago in the same area,” Cole said. “But it was much, much less damage this time. We think it was just straight-line winds.”

Cole said there were no injuries and only one home was displaced for the evening. He said there were mainly a few downed trees and one downed powerline.

Cole said they sent the report to the National Weather Service. He said they should hear back in a few days to confirm what kind of weather event it was, wind speeds, and other details.

“It may take a few more days to hear back just because of the amount of weather activity today,” Cole said.
