The storm caused significant damage in Erie, PA, particularly in west-side neighborhoods and areas near Erie Cemetery. The 80 mph (129 km/h) winds uprooted trees and damaged property, leaving hundreds of households without power. Residents reported hearing loud, freight train-like sounds during the storm, a characteristic of high-speed winds. The storm's intensity was comparable to the Erie Millcreek storm of 2017, which included an EF1 tornado and flooding. Elevated terrain contributed to increased wind speeds, exacerbating the damage.
