Info
A double wide mobile home was shifted about 8 feet (2.4 m), and its anchors where pulled from the ground, a brick home had most of its roof removed, and the walls of a brick outbuilding were collapsed by this large wedge tornado. Near the brick home, many trees were snapped or uprooted, two of which sustained some debarking, and an irrigation pivot was toppled. Trees were uprooted along the path, and several homes were damaged by falling trees.
