Preliminary Local Storm Report
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ

A damage survey was conducted at a home on N Blue Bell Rd near the intersecting street of Coles Mill Rd where a concentrated amount of damage occurred. It was determined that a brief gustnado formed at this location, snapping the trunk of several hardwood trees and taking down several large softwood branches. Video received from the homeowner showed the trees and branches falling after a rapid wind shift. Analysis of radar data showed a strong signature of a rear-flank downdraft in the vicinity, which likely spun up this brief gustnado.

We thank the residents of the Franklinville home for their assistance in completing this survey.
