Wind gusts as high as 69mph struck Trotwood on September 14 bringing down trees and limbs across the area. This tree closed Free Pike for four hours. Power went out over most of the city. Only three traffic signals remained working.

This became a welcome sight on local streets signaling those residents power was on the way. These trucks on West Sherry arrived Sunday a week after the storm to repair a pole and many downed wires. Some went without power until September 26.

City street crews worked well into Sunday evening clearing main streets. On Monday morning some of the neighborhood streets were still choked up with branches. Debris was everywhere.

Besides downed power lines like this one on Post Town Rd many homes suffered roof and siding damage. Dayton Power and Light had 300,000 people without power. The first neighborhoods in Trotwood started coming back on three days later on Wednesday night.

Trotwood firefighters unload a delivery of ice at the Little Richmond Rd fire station. They distributed free ice and water beginning Wednesday when local store supplies could not be replenished quickly enough.
Eric Underwood took advantage of the winds to fly his high performance kite after the stronger gusts had died down during the windstorm. Since the power was out inside he came outside flying his kite from the 5th/3rd Bank lot in Olde Town.

Reservations for this shelter in Madison Park had to be cancelled when 70' poplar trees fell on the roof cracking a support beam.
