Weak tornado confirmed north of Pittsburgh
CRANBERRY, Pa. (AP) — The National Weather Service says a weak tornado touched down in western Pennsylvania during storms that swept across the commonwealth this weekend.
Forecasters said an EF-0 tornado with winds of 60 to 70 mph traveled for a mile and a half near Cranberry in Butler County shortly after 5 p.m. Saturday.
But officials said there were no reports of injuries, and the twister’s damage “consisted of only uprooted trees and a few snapped trees.”
Minor flooding was reported around the region with a few people forced from their homes during the storm.
