A dust devil caused significant damage to Genesis Baptist Church, peeling off the roof and ripping apart metal. The incident occurred over a period of around 60 seconds and was a frightening experience.
The National Weather Service determined that the damage was not caused by a tornado, landspout, or microburst, but rather by the dust devil.
Further details about the incident are available from the National Weather Service, which investigated the damage at the church near Buna.
