That’s according to the Post-Journal, which says officials in Warren County are continuing to access the damage along a 16 mile path in an area just west of the city of Warren.

The tornado touched down at about 8:18 p.m. in Pleasant Township.

Hardest hit was the Carter Lumber business in Starbrick, which saw significant damage to several of its buildings and warehouses.

A meteorologist with the National Weather Service determined some of the storm’s wind speeds reached 120-to-130-mile-per-hour.
