LINCOLN CITY (AP) — The National Weather Service has confirmed that it was a tornado that tore through a coastal area of Lincoln City over the weekend and packed winds that reached 85 mph.

The tornado’s destruction path was 150 yards long by 80 yards wide, and a report from the National Weather Service said 11 homes, three cars and three decks were damaged.

Pacific Power representatives said almost 350 homes were without electricity. The power has been restored. No injuries were reported from the tornado.

Resident Brenda Ruble lives on a stretch of coastline in Lincoln City and said it took a moment to realize that a tornado was hitting the coast.

“Your brain is trying to process what’s going on and it kept getting bigger and bigger, and there was a spin on it,” said Brenda Ruble, who lives in the area. “All of a sudden we looked at each other and go, ‘That’s a tornado!’ And my husband says, ‘Hit the ground!’”

Jim Jenneke said he was watching the Portland Trail Blazers game with his wife when he heard a large bang. Winds ripped the deck off his house, blew down trees and caused damage to a power transformer.

The storm blew the roof off another house near Jenneke’s home and left it twisted and destroyed. Pink insulation remained in trees and along the ground on Saturday.

“All I heard was, ‘Woooooo!’ A big roar, you know,” said Jim Bobber, who lives nearby.

Large waves continued to crash against the beach Saturday evening as a high surf warning remained in effect.
