EF1 tornado in Marshall County, Indiana

Tornado developed 2 miles southwest of Ancilla College and quickly intensified to EF1 intensity as it raced northeastward. The tornado caused extensive tree and generally minor structural damage across the Ancilla College campus and Gilbert lake. Here the tornado widened to 750 yards before contracting down as it continued northeast. A mobile home was torn from its anchored undercarriage and overturned, injuring one inside. Several homes sustained generally minor siding and roof damage. Two barns just northeast of Ancilla college were flattened. Strong inflow winds were noted at many locations just east/southeast of the tornado track.

A cold front pushed into the area during the afternoon and evening hours, interacting with decent shear and MLCAPE to allow for numerous thunderstorm development. Pockets of damaging winds occurred along with a total of six confirmed tornadoes (three in far southern Lower Michigan and three in northern Indiana).
