EF0 tornado in Lee County, Florida

A landspout tornado that was likely associated with the circulation from a previous landspout that dissipated minutes earlier is estimated to have formed around 3:25 PM EDT approximately 1.75 miles to the northwest of the previous landspout, where damage was first noted along Reynard Ave in the Tanglewood area where a large tree had numerous medium to large branches snapped. Continuing northwest, branches and limbs were snapped at multiple locations across Cumberland and Woodwind Courts, and a home near Tanglewood Pkwy had a large tree uprooted in its yard. Additional footage was submitted from the Tanglewood area depicting lawn furniture and yard decor scattered about, along with fence and roof damage, and a video taken by a resident along Westminster Dr at 3:28 PM EDT showed airborne debris along with indications of the ground circulation as the landspout neared the McGregor Gardens area and Argyle Dr and McGregor Blvd. The circulation continued northwest across the Georgetown area just south of Colonial Blvd and began crossing the Caloosahatchee River just to the west-southwest of McGregor Colonial Memorial Park, and to the south of the Midpoint Bridge around 3:30 PM EDT. Videos taken by the public showed surface spray associated with the circulation as it approached and crossed the Midpoint Bridge west of McGregor Colonial Memorial Park and continued northwest toward the central section of the river north of the bridge, where it is estimated to have dissipated around 3:31 PM EDT before reaching the western shore of the river. Maximum estimated winds of 75 mph.

A cluster of thunderstorms developing and propagating northward across southwest Florida and Lee County produced three EF-0 landspout tornadoes during the afternoon that affected parts of Fort Myers and Cape Coral in Lee County.
