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

Damage occurred to a double-wide trailer and a carport. The trailer suffered roof damage. Storm spotters reported a funnel cloud in the area.

The wider storm

An upper low remained over the area triggering several rounds of showers and thunderstorms. A very moist environment encouraged flash flooding.

Began near Venus (32.3866, -97.1200).
