Trained weather watchers for the National Weather Service say they witnessed a tornado near the Cortland-Tompkins County border Monday night.
The tornado was spotted around 7:45 p.m. Monday in the Town of McGraw.
New York State Police confirmed reports of damage, including at least one roof blown off a structure.
The National Weather Service will send investigators to see if the damage is consistent with a tornado.
This video was taken by Mike Niziol in Harford, NY at 5:14PM looking North. It matches well with the SRM couplet at that time on the Tompkins/Cortland county line. Please contact me for media posts. @NWSBinghamton @wxbywilliams @weatherchannel @foxweather pic.twitter.com/Mb1LNyNufm
