The National Weather Service in Paducah confirmed Monday that an EF-1 tornado with maximum estimated winds of 100 mph damaged part of the marina at Moors Resort on Kentucky Lake in Marshall County Sunday afternoon.
According to the storm survey, a 50-yard section of marina, one of three sections that extended into Kentucky Lake, was twisted and overturned by the tornado. A boat that was docked in this part of the marina was lifted onto the overturned marina section. The report adds the entire marina structure was shifted several feet and pulled away from the shore, dislodging several spud poles that anchored the floating marina structure to the lake bottom.
Scattered straight-line damage including broken large tree limbs and uprooted trees was reported across the rest of Marshall County.
