The pilot reported that during touchdown on runway 31, the airplane encountered unforecasted, low-level turbulence combined with a strong quartering tailwind which forced the tail section to the right. The airplane veered to the left and departed the runway surface, which resulted in the collapse of the nose gear. The pilot reported that rudder inputs were ineffective in the strong gusting conditions. The automated surface observation at the airport reported winds from 200 degrees at 13 knots, gusting to 19. The pilot reported no mechanical failure or malfunction with the airplane at the time of the accident.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain directional control of the airplane during the landing roll. Wind gusts and a quartering tailwind were factors.
