            EF-1 tornado with peak winds of 105 mph,
            path length of 3.23 miles, and width of 130
            yards. The National Weather Service in
            Buffalo completed a damage survey across
            eastern Monroe County and western Wayne
            County today in response to reports of
            concentrated areas of damage near Webster
            and Ontario from a line of severe
            thunderstorms on Wednesday, September 2nd.
            Embedded low level rotation within a squall
            line moved through Webster shortly before
            7:30 pm, and a tornado touched down in the
            vicinity of Salt Road just north of Route
            104 as evidenced by several snapped softwood
            trees. The tornado then crossed Route 104 as
            it headed southeastward, with another area
            of concentrated damage noted near the
            intersection of Basket Road and Ridge Road.
            Here several hardwood trees were snapped or
            uprooted, and a few power poles were knocked
            down. The tornado then continued to the
            southeast through open fields until
            encountering a small subdivision just west
            of County Line Road. Here the most
            significant damage occurred with roof
            uplift, considerable shingle loss, and
            siding damage on a few homes on Halesworth
            Lane and Bannerwood Drive. Numerous trees in
            the subdivision were also snapped or
            uprooted. Additional tree damage was seen
            along Foxworth Drive, and then the tornado
            traveled through a large forested area with
            no road access. Finally, the tornado emerged
            along North Lincoln Road just north of
            Whitney Drive, and produced extensive tree
            damage at a large property where numerous
            mature trees were uprooted or snapped,
            before lifting just east of this area.
