The path drawn at its surveyed width of 100 yards (0.06 mi) — zoom in and the swath grows to true scale. Other tornadoes recorded nearby that day are shown faint.

What EF0 means. On the Enhanced Fujita scale, EF0 is light damage: shingles and siding peeled, gutters torn, branches broken, consistent with estimated gusts of 65–85 mph. The rating comes from a survey of the worst damage after the storm, not from a wind measurement, so it says as much about what the tornado hit as about how strong it was.

What the National Weather Service wrote

An EF-0 tornado touched down in western Hinds County, in the vicinity of Betigheimer and Canada Cross Roads. The tornado moved generally just south of due east along Canada Cross Road which becomes Bill Strong Road east of Middle Road. Several trees were downed along the path, with some of the trees having snapped trunks. Inspection of the trees and consultation with local officials confirmed that the snapped trees were dead or otherwise weak. Damage was confined to vegetation and mostly smaller limbs. The tornado lifted along Bill Strong Road after travelling nearly two miles along the roadway. The tornado was estimated to have maximum winds of 75 mph. A tornadic debris signature was observed by radar with this tornado.
