What the National Weather Service wrote

Thunderstorm winds caused widespread damage across the central portions of Callaway County. Numerous trees, tree limbs and power lines were blown down, including across Fulton and Calwood.

The wider storm

Isolated storms developed in an area where dewpoints in the low to mid 70s pooled. There was some weak surface convergence, ML CAPEs over 2000 J/kg, and steep low-level lapse rates, so there were some localized damaging microbursts with the severe storms. An area of storms over northern St. Clair County in Illinois produced up to 5 inches of rain in about a two hour period with some reports of flash flooding.

Began near Hams Prairie (38.7881, -91.9412).
