The National Weather Service in Louisville conducted a survey 
for damage associated with the storms that went through the area 
Sunday evening.

The survey team found straight-line wind damage at The Sporting Club 
at the Farm on State Road 111. A large pole barn on the south end of
the property had its roof peel off and blown downwind towards the 
south-southeast. Parts of the roof struck a wooden farm fence which 
brought down multiple sections of the fence. Some of the debris then 
crossed 5 mile lane and took out a power pole bringing down the pole 
and power lines. Some of the roof went as far as 150 yards from the 
barn. All of the roof blew in the same general direction. The east 
wall of the pole barn, which is one of the short sides of the barn, 
blew out falling towards State Road 111. The base of the wall 
remained near it original location.   

An approximate 90 to 95 mph out of the north-northwest wind got 
under the roof's overhang and was able to peel the roof off, and push 
the east side wall out. The only other damage in the area was minor 
tree damage.   

The survey team would like to thank Kent Borrow, Director of
Floyd County Emergency Management for his assistance with the survey.
