episode_narrativeAn area of intense showers moved across the Eastern Panhandle from 9:30 PM to midnight, producing winds in excess of 55 MPH and very heavy downpours. In Grant County, numerous trees and power lines were downed from Mt. Storm to Scheer. Winds gusted to 60 MPH at Highview in Hampshire County, knocking down trees and power lines. Jefferson County was hardest hit. In Ranson, wind gusts estimated at 70 MPH blew a flat roof off an apartment building in the Park and 14th Avenue area, showering debris on a nearby trailer park. One person in the trailer park sustained a leg injury, and 6 others were evacuated after their homes were moderately damaged. Many trees and power lines were downed across the city. The storms also toppled trees and power lines along the Route 340 corridor from Charles Town to Harpers Ferry. The KOA campground in Harpers Ferry was littered with oak and spruce trees snapped 10 feet above the base. Power outages were widespread across the eastern half of the county. A total of 2.17 inches of rain fell in Charles Town. Highview in Hampshire County and Red Creek in Grant County reported just over an inch of rainfall.
