Clarksburg, West Virginia (WBOY) — Strong winds have caused damage and power outages throughout West Virginia, with north central West Virginia being no exception.

The fire department stated that a few cars were damaged by bricks when the wall collapsed, and that a building inspector would arrive on Monday to inspect the adjacent building to ensure that no further damage had occurred.
A 12 News reporter in Clarksburg noticed that a billboard had partially broken due to strong winds, with the right corner appearing to touch a roof below it.
