Counties:  Logan
F-scale:  F3
Deaths:  0
Injuries:  5
Path width:  880 yards
Path length:  7 miles
Time:  2:25pm
Grazulis narrative:  Moved northeast from two miles west of Adairville to Schochoh.  A home was unroofed and tenant homes and barns were destroyed.  Livestock was killed and cars and farm machinery were destroyed.
Noted discrepancies:  SPC and NCDC gave this an F3, Grazulis gives an F2.  SPC and NCDC give a path length of 7 miles, Grazulis and Storm Data give 8 miles.  SPC, Storm Data, and NCDC give a path width of 880 yards, Grazulis gives 800 yards.  The touchdown lat/lon listed by NCDC and SPC is in Hickman County, and the liftoff lat/lon is in Graves County (far western Kentucky).  Grazulis takes the tornado from two miles west of Adairville to Schochoh, which agrees with Storm Data.
