Winds gusted over 60 mph at times across the northwest third of Ohio as a low pressure center passed through the northern Great Lakes. The highest measured wind gust was 63 mph at Columbus Grove (Putnam). Damage, for the most part, was not significant, with scattered trees, limbs, and power lines downed. A roof was reported blown off a trailer in Butler County at 0408EST. At 0445EST a church under construction in Findlay (Hancock) was severely damaged when much of the framing blew over. A chimney was toppled in Mansfield (Richland) and a motorist was injured in Port Clinton (Ottawa) when her vehicle was blown off the road after which she could not regain control. Fire departments battled a number of fires started from embers from leaf burning then regenerated from the strong winds.
