Van Wert county hit by tornado

Updated: May 31, 2008 08:30 AM


VAN WERT, OH (WANE) - Van Wert County had another tornado late Friday night as storms rolled through the County.

Van Wert County Homeland Security & Emergency Management Director Rick W. McCoy reported that a tornado struck just to the southwest of the Village of Scott in northern Van Wert County at 11:56 p.m.

National Weather Service radar indicated a rapidly developing tornado in the area at the time and issued the Tornado Warning for southeastern Paulding County. The storm cell that produced the tornado was at the tail end of a complex of storms that hit the area in the late evening hours which also produced some torrential rains producing over 2 inches in an hour.

McCoy stated he had the county weather network up and running earlier in the evening and even had spotters out when Adams County had a tornado warning issued earlier around 6:30 p.m. But as storms dissipated and conditions improved to light thundershowers, weather service officials felt that the more serious weather conditions had shifted to the south.
