Columbia County Sees Damage From Elsa

News4Jax

When tornado warnings for areas including Columbia County expired  Wednesday morning, residents of one Columbia County town came out to find their deck and fence was blown away, a large tree down and several trees snapped.

WJCT News partner News4Jax reported the back yard of one home on Raven Lane, in Columbia City, was torn up, although their home is largely intact.

Looking at video of the damage, News4Jax Meteorologist Richard Nunn said it appears straight-line winds were responsible. The National Hurricane Center will send assessment teams to this and likely several others to determine if a tornado touched down in those areas.

A video report is included in an expanded version of this story at News4Jax.com.
