EF-1 tornado with 100 mph winds damages homes in Burlington County, New Jersey

CHESTERFIELD, N.J. (WPVI) -- An EF-1 tornado with maximum winds of 100 mph damaged homes, toppled trees and brought down power lines in Burlington County, New Jersey, with no injuries reported.

The tornado partially tore the roof from Raymond Russell's home along Old York Road in Chesterfield.

"I'm 84 years old. I've lived here almost 50 years. I don't know when it's done whether I'll stay," Russell said.

His son, Raymond Russell III, said his father was fortunate despite the damage.

"He wasn't hurt or worse. His car never got damaged. And he's got a place to stay."

At least part of Russell's roof landed in a neighbor's yard.

"We walked over there, the roof was gone. We were like, oh my God, what's going on? We had no idea what had happened," neighbor Cindy Monterroso said.

Viewer video showed powerful winds and hail during the storm.

"In between 4 and 4:15 was when it was the worst. Pitch black, so loud. The hail was coming down," Chesterfield resident Tara McCreedy said. She took shelter in her basement with her family.

The National Weather Service surveyed the area the following morning and determined an EF-1 tornado with maximum winds of 100 mph caused some of the damage. The tornado's path was about 1.5 miles long.

Down the road, a barn with equipment inside collapsed, and multiple homes on Orchard Drive were damaged. PSEG crews worked throughout the day to repair damaged poles and power lines.

Sarah Johnson, a warning coordination meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said the area experienced both straight-line wind and tornado damage.

"As was the case in Chesterfield today, we actually had a mix of both straight-line wind damage, as well as we did have a narrow path kind of in the Old York Road, Bordentown Chesterfield Road area. That was determined to be tornado damage."

Johnson said it was New Jersey's sixth tornado of the year. The November timing was unusual because tornadoes are typically seen in the spring and summer.

No injuries have been reported.
