Experts from the National Weather Service say the damage caused in Greenwood was not caused by a tornado.

National Weather Service experts from Greer are inspecting storm damage in Greenwood County Tuesday after a Monday afternoon storm caused damage throughout the Upstate.

The experts are visiting the Dyson and Ninety Six areas of the county to determine what kind of storm caused damage Monday afternoon into the evening.

We're told there are no reports of structural damage, but there are trees down in the area.

A neighborhood in Simpsonville was among several in the Upstate to receive substantial damage.

The neighborhood, off of New Palace Court, had a tree uprooted and several private fences were picked up by wind and tossed into nearby homes. Nobody was injured, but one person was very fortunate when one of the fences flew into a kitchen window near where she was standing.

"I started having like a panic attack I couldn't breathe and I told him, said Jane Nepton. "I said I feel like I'm going to pass out and he said just go in the living room sit down calm down. I said, 'How can I calm down, look at my house, its completely destroyed.'"

Trees and tree limbs fell across northern Greenville County and throughout Spartanburg County, but the damage was not as nearly as severe as previous storms.

The NWS of Columbia confirmed Tuesday an EF-1 tornado touched down in Newberry County.

However, in Abbeville and Greenwood counties, several structures were damaged and in one case a tree reportedly fell on a car and another fell on a home.

Early reports indicate that nobody was injured as the storms rolled through the area, unlike some areas in Tennessee, Ohio and Kentucky, where several people were injured and flooding was prevalent.

The state of South Carolina held a scheduled tornado warning drill on Tuesday morning at 9 a.m. Sirens were set to sound and weather radio alerts were sent out as part of the drill.

"Last night is proof positive," said Derrec Becker of the SC Emergency Management Division. "We're approaching the spring and summer months and now's the time of year that typically we get a lot of erratic weather patterns, specifically tornadoes."

He also says the Emergency Management Division wants every family to have a plan so each member of the family will know what to do in case of emergency.
