FRANKFORT, Ky. (KT) - The storm system that roared through Kentucky on Friday and Saturday left flooding, high winds and even a few tornadoes in its wake.

A damage survey by the National Weather Service office in Paducah determined two tornadoes struck Christian County between 7:30 and 7:45 (CT) Saturday morning. 

The first was on the ground for 11 miles, west of Pembroke.  It was 100 yards wide and had top winds of 100 miler per hour.  According to the damage survey, several barns were damaged or destroyed, including one that had its roof thrown several hundred yards into some trees.  Power lines were downed and 13 empty rail cars were flipped over.

The second one cut a path that was 2.5 miles long and 50 yards wide, with top winds of 95 miles per hour.  Only minor damage was reported with that twister.

The Paducah weather service office also says they experienced heavy rain, flooding and damaging winds, Friday night and Saturday, with rainfall totals of two to five inches in west Kentucky.   

The National Weather Service office in Louisville reported no tornadoes in central Kentucky, but some very high straight-line winds.

The worst was in Madison County where four people were injured. 

A survey determined peak winds of 80 miles per hour, five miles east of Richmond, with a path that was one mile long and 350 yards wide.  A single-wide mobile home rolled over, with three people inside, all of whom received minor injuries.  The most significant was to a woman who was thrown into a fish tank and ended going to the hospital for treatment.  An old farmhouse next to the mobile home sustained major roof damage. 

Another survey took place in northern Madison County, near the Fayette County line.  65-70 mile per hour winds hit White Hall State Historic Site, damaging the roof of the historic 18th century home.  Also in the area, numerous softwood trees were uprooted or snapped, including many cedar trees.  Top winds were estimated at 65-70 miles per hour, with a path that was 1/3 mile long and 250 yards wide.

More damage surveys are being performed.
