Low pressure over Ohio deepened as it moved across eastern Lake Erie and then across Lake Ontario. High winds buffeted the area downing trees and power lines and poles. Sustained winds of 30 to 40 mph with gusts to 70 mph were recorded. In Chautauqua county, several boats on Lake Chautauqua were damaged when they broke loose from their moorings. In Wayne county, orchards suffered damage as trees were knocked over and fruit blown off the trees. Apples intended for fresh had to be sold for juice at a lower price. Power outages were reported throughout the area. It was estimated that as many as 50,000 were without power at some point. In numerous locations, the falling trees damaged buildings and automobiles, for example--in Canandaigua and Geneva, Ontario county; Olean, Cattaraugus county; Medina, Orleans county, and Honeoye Falls, Monroe county.
