Summary:
Tornado touched down just west of CR 59, along CR 56, moving
towards the east-southeast. The tornado impacted one residence
after initial touchdown uprooting and snapping several trees on
the west side of the property. A few pieces of hard blue plastic
window well covering was found embedded into the west facing
stucco-ed wall of the home. The tornado then proceeded to impact
another residence about one-quarter mile east-southeast where it
removed the west facing awning, anchored to the primary houses'
roof structure, all of the northwest facing cement board house siding,
and approximately one square of asphalt roofing shingles on the
northwest pitch of the roof. The most significant impact was to three
telephone poles on CR 59, about one-tenth of a mile south of the CR 56,
that were snapped at their bases, resulting in EF-2 damage. The tornado
remained on the ground for a few more minutes moving primarily towards the
east where it overturned a few center pivots and damaging a working
farm's outbuilding. The tornado then lifted over open fields.
It was reported, by a trained spotter, that the tornado
briefly touched down once more just east of the Caliche School
before dissipating. No additional damage was reported.
We wish to thank Logan County Office of Emergency Management for
their extensive help before and during this survey.
