Info
A very large mile-wide wedge tornado hit the communities of Belah and Trout, causing considerable damage. Widespread damage occurred in Belah, with damage to the roofs of homes and a school building. Outbuildings were damaged or destroyed, many were trees blown over onto structures and vehicles, a metal truss tower was toppled over, and several power poles broken into multiple pieces in the Belah area as well. In Trout, homes and trees sustained damage, while a boat business collapsed. Large swaths of heavily forested areas were completely flattened along the path, with every tree in the path snapped or uprooted in some areas.
