Survey Summary:

The National Weather Service has confirmed that a microburst with
peak estimated wind speeds of 95 to 105 mph occurred northwest of
Milesburg. The microburst began along Moose Run Road where a
combination of numerous hardwood and softwood trees were both
snapped and uprooted. The microburst then continued moving
northeast across Johnson Hill Road where additional trees were
damaged. An outbuilding and barn both suffered considerable roof
and siding damage as the microburst blew through.

We would like to thank the Centre County Office of Emergency
Services and Milesburg Fire Company for their assistance in
gathering the data for this survey.
