The 2010 tornado was not the first in recent times. In 2004, an F0 tornado crossed over Sherwood Road and down into Lost Cove. The image is a map developed by Karen Kuers and her students that displays the number and direction of trees that were snapped off or knocked down during that event (click on it for more detail). The 2004 tornado impacted mature forest, a thinned hardwood forest, the white pines planted along the fire lane, and some other planted pine.
