EF0 tornado in Henry County, Missouri

A brief EF0 tornado occurred north of Montrose from the same mesovortex that produced the tornado just southeast of Butler. The first signs of damage occurred just west of Route K, where a farm building had metal roofing damage, and small trees were downed. A larger tree was split just east of Route K, with other minor limbs downed in the area. The tornado moved through generally inaccessible property before reaching Route RA between County Roads 250 and 320, where multiple trees suffered damage. No damage was noted farther west or east of this path. Given that the tree damage was in a variety of directions, the damage confirms the presence of a brief tornado. The office also received spotter video of a power flash in this general area, with a strong indication of rotation on radar.

On the afternoon and evening hours of April 27, severe storms impacted much of the WFO Kansas City county warning area.
