Campbelltown Tornadoes

On July 14, 2004 around 3pm, a Tornado Warning was issued by the National Weather Service in State College, PA for Lebanon County. A few moments later, an F3 Tornado with winds over 160 M.P.H. struck the extreme southeast part of the village. No deaths occurred, however several minor to moderate injuries were treated. It is to this point in history, the largest and most expensive tornado to strike Lebanon County. Photographs of the tornado damage have been archived at https://web.archive.org/web/20070930142026/http://www.patornado.com/



On June 22, 2010, an EF0-rated tornado touched down in Campbelltown. Storm chaser Mike Brulo documented the entire storm, including the tornado. This weak tornado did not cause as much damage as the one in 2004. Brulo's video can be found [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykLsDXKd24Q here.]
