EF0 tornado in Lincoln County, Nebraska

A tornado touched down west of Lake Maloney and was on the ground for 10 minutes. It traveled a half mile before lifting across open rangeland.

A strong low pressure system produced widespread severe weather across the central plains on April 14th. Storms developed over central Nebraska in the late morning hours which produced large hail over portions of Garfield and Wheeler counties. Around the middle of the afternoon, more storms developed over southwest Nebraska in the vicinity of a dry line and warm front as a surface low was placed over Keith and Perkins counties. These storms produced very large hail, several tornadoes, numerous funnel clouds, and heavy rain. The heaviest hit areas were across Lincoln, Logan, and Custer counties as storms continued to develop and move over these areas before finally moving east into eastern Nebraska by late evening. Although several tornadoes occurred, they were all weak and did not produce any damage. Damage from these storms was from large hail.
