NOAA recorded where this tornado touched down but not where it lifted, so it appears as a point. 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

Multiple sources such as broadcast media, public, law enforcement, and emergency management have reported pictures and videos of a once tropical funnel cloud touching down near Tivoli. Touch down deems it as a tornado. No damage reported. Since the tornado caused no damage, the NWS could not assign an EF-scale rating. Time estimated by report to Sheriff Office. Path length and width also estimated based on lack of damage.

The wider storm

The combination of light winds and abundant tropical moisture made the atmosphere favorable for the development of weak tropical funnels. Most of these funnel clouds are short lived and usually do not touch the ground. However, if a tropical funnel touches down it is considered a tornado which happened briefly during late morning on June 20th.

Began near Green Lake (28.5300, -96.8900).
