EF0 tornado in Robeson County, North Carolina

A short-lived tornado started near Buie-Philadelphus Road, where

it snapped a large oak tree near a mobile home. The tornado then

continued northeastward and snapped and uprooted several more

trees, one of which leaned on a home and caused minor damage to

the roof. Minor shingle damage was also observed and an RV was

reported to have been nearly blown over. The tornado continued

further northeastward and uprooted additional trees along its

path. A corn bin and another small tree were blown over at the

northern end of the property. The tornado ended just northeast of

the area where the last few trees snapped and uprooted were

found.

Some low-topped supercells occurred in association with an upper level disturbance in an environment with minimal instability but pretty strong wind shear.
