Description
Rated as possible F2 tornado but this may need to be changed as the vortex was witnessed and reported in the newspaper. If damage photos were taken, this would warrant automatic “confirmed” status.
Strong tornado as it was able to completely destroy multiple farm buildings and uproot an enormous tree. Large hail also recorded with storm.
