Tornado confirmed in upstate NY with 110 mph winds: Here's where it touched down

The National Weather Service in Buffalo has confirmed that a tornado touched down Monday afternoon in the towns of Great Valley and Humphrey in Cattaraugus County. The Weather Service survey team confirmed that an EF-1 tornado touched down at 5:37 p.m. between U.S. Highway 219 and Farm Market Road and continued northeast for approximately 2.4 miles. The twister reached an estimated peak wind of 110 mph and maximum width of 600 yards, according to the Weather Service. The twister was on the ground for approximately four minutes. Footage of the area shows several heavily damaged houses - including several now without a roof - garages and barns that were flattened and debris strewn across lawns and roads. Some large tractor trailers and campers were also overturned. Hundreds of trees toppled - some snapped midway up the trunk and others were uprooted entirely. One entire hillside showed trees sheared off mid-trunk for hundreds of yards. According to the report, as the tornado traveled northeast, damage became more severe. Several homes, garages, and structures near the intersection of Sugartown Road and Farm Market Road, Haines Hollow Road and Bonnie Way "either had the full loss of the structure, loss of significant roofing material, or the loss of some of the walls in the upper portion of the structure," according to the report.

How many tornadoes has Missouri had this year so far?

MISSOURI — If it seems like Missouri has already had an unusually high number of tornadoes this year, you are correct. The state of Missouri has already seen double the yearly average of tornadoes only halfway through the year, according to the National Weather Service. The NWS shared on X that the state has had a very active weather season, with 43 tornadoes already accounted for so far. This number is two times more than the yearly average of 21.5 tornadoes while only half through 2025. At-large murder suspect arrested after wild crash in north St. Louis The majority of these tornadoes were rated EF-1 tornadoes with 86 to 110 mile-per-hour winds, making up 20 of the tornadoes experienced across the state. EF-0 tornadoes with 65 to 85 mile per hour winds have been seen 10 times already in Missouri. The state has also had nine EF-2 tornadoes with 111 to 135 miles per hour winds and three EF-3 tornadoes with 136 to 165 miles per hour winds. Missouri has only had one tornado with an unknown tornado rating, leaving no damage to rate. Compared to previous years, in 2024 the state had 47 tornadoes in total. The NWS reports other active years include 2006, when the state saw 75 tornadoes. FOX 2 Severe Weather Specialist Chris Higgins said one big clue for this year's active severe weather season can actually be found in the Pacific Ocean. The possible cause: the slowly fading La Niña in the central Pacific Ocean. The cold water associated with La Niña and a warmer-than-normal pocket further north up towards Alaska enhance the northern branch of the jet stream. That branch of the jet stream is a key contributor to the wind energy needed for an active severe weather season across the Midwest. That wind energy helps contribute to storm rotation, and rotating storms produce our most violent severe storms. The active jet stream has supplied a constant flow of triggers, which is why severe weather events have come at somewhat regular intervals since March. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
