EF1 tornado in McLennan County, Texas

This is a continuation of a tornado that formed near Eddy in Falls County. As the tornado traveled northward, it entered southeast McLennan County at 532 pm CDT, and subsequently impacted a single wide mobile home located along Bruceville Lane. This mobile home was rolled multiple times, destroying the structure and resulting in minor damage to an adjacent frame built home (DI 2, DOD 7). Two occupants were in the mobile home and sustained injuries. The tornado traveled farther north approximately half a mile before dissipating before it reached Bruceville and Interstate 35. The tornado was rated an EF-1 in McLennan County with maximum estimated winds of 105 mph.

With a highly unstable airmass in place, a meandering front, a dryline, and a shortwave trough all worked together to generate multiple rounds of thunderstorms May 23 and 24. In addition to large hail and damaging winds, multiple tornadoes also occurred along with a few instances of flash flooding. A total of 6 tornadoes occurred in Central and East Texas: 2 EF-1s, 3 EF-0s, and 1 EF-U.
