EF0 tornado in Clay County, Missouri

Someone driving along HWY 210 near Missouri City filmed a brief tornado in the field to the north of the highway. The visual appearance of the tornado was similar to a landspout, and with it being associated with a new updraft near a boundary, it was determined to be a landspout.

During the evening of June 11, a complex of thunderstorms ripped through eastern Kansas and western Missouri, including through the Kansas City Metro area. While the severe weather was fairly widespread, impacts were pretty low. There were some sporadic areas of enhanced wind where several reports of 80+ mph wind was received with wide swaths of tree destruction. The area with the highest concentration of the worst damage was in the Excelsior Springs area, where tens to hundreds of large healthy trees were destroyed, including at nearby Watkins Mill State Park. No injuries were reported, but the widespread nature of the damage and magnitude of the highest wind reports made this the biggest event of the severe weather season in the area.
