August 24, 2016: an EF-3 tornado with 160 mph winds crossed Woodburn's fields
On August 24, 2016, between 5:27 and 5:39 p.m., a tornado touched down. It landed about a quarter mile northeast of Doty Road and Roberts Road and cut through the Woodburn area. The National Weather Service in Northern Indiana rated it EF-3. It had estimated peak winds of 160 mph. The path ran roughly five miles, with a maximum width of 500 yards. It reported extensive damage to homes, barns, trees and crops. No injuries or deaths.
Homes that stand after a storm like that can still have damaged kitchens and laundry rooms. A careful technician does not just plug things back in. Water, debris and a damaged supply line all come before a restart. A gas appliance that moved needs the utility before anyone touches it.
The lesson for Allen County households is clear. Treat any appliance that got wet or shifted in a storm as unsafe until it is checked. This is guidance, not a story about a customer job.
