At least 2 tornados were responsible for damage to 15 homes, a barn, and many outbuildings. One farm lost one 50,000 bushel and three 2,000 bushel grain bins as well as $20-30,000 of irrigation equipment. Many large and old trees were also snapped off and dumped into the streets and across rural roads, which slowed traffic through the area.
