Storm restoration in Broughton

Broughton is a small village of around 185 in Hamilton County, deep in southern Illinois's Little Egypt region, where NWS Paducah - one of the most active severe weather forecast offices in the country - covers the sky overhead. The county's place in tornado history is grim and permanent: the 1925 Tri-State Tornado killed 41 people here alone, and severe thunderstorms continue to bring large hail, destructive straight-line winds, and derechos tracking northeast out of the Missouri Bootheel corridor. Heavy rainfall from slow-moving Ohio River valley systems creates flash flooding across the county's low-lying rural terrain, and winter ice storms can down trees and power lines in a single overnight event - leaving damage that often goes unaddressed until the following spring. Storm Damage 911 connects Broughton homeowners with vetted, licensed local professionals for a free assessment.
