Info
Large wedge tornado. One single family home had some siding removed while another had its chimney collapsed and some roofing material removed. A small and poorly-constructed house was lifted off of its cinder block foundation and completely destroyed, seriously injuring two occupants. A single family home and a manufactured home sustained minor to moderate damage. Numerous trees were snapped or uprooted, and several sheds or barns were destroyed. The tornado was likely stronger than EF2, however, it primarily traversed marshland and no damage indicators above EF2 were found.
