|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17:42Z | EF1 | KDMX | IA | Adair | Rosserdale | Tornado with intermittent southeastward track produced the worst damage near the end of its life. |
| 18:02Z | EF0 | KDMX | IA | Story | Zearing | This is a multiple segment tornado with three segments that passed through portions of Story, Marshall and Hardin counties. This is the first segment in Story county. This longer track tornado formed about a mile and a half east of Zearing where a farmstead sustained roof damage to multiple buildings. The relatively narrow tornado continued to the NE, with RFD winds destroying 6 grain bins and an outbuilding just south of the track. The tornado then passed into Marshall county. |
| 18:05Z | EF1 | KDMX | IA | Marshall | St Anthony | This is a multiple segment tornado with three segments that passed through portions of Story, Marshall and Hardin counties. This is the second segment in Marshall county. After turning to the east and entering Marshall County, the tornado rapidly widened and intensified just after crossing County Highway S57. Severe damage occurred to a 500 yard wide stretch of trees along Minerva Creek along and north of 120th St. (part of the damage was likely attributable to RFD). The tornado continued east just north of 120th St. and completely destroyed a farm outbuilding, depositing the remnants of the building in the surrounding trees to the north and east. Very strong RFD winds caused widespread tree and building damage for over a mile south of the tornado path along this section of the track. Turning northeast, the tornado tracked across open farmland for the next 2.5 miles, grazing one farmstead in the process. The narrowing tornado directly hit a farmstead south of the 105th St. and Fariman Ave. intersection, with mostly low EF1 tree damage sustained. The tornado then continued into Hardin county. |
| 18:13Z | EF1 | KDMX | IA | Madison | Winterset Arpt | A brief tornado touchdown with several trees damaged. |
| 18:15Z | EF0 | KDMX | IA | Marshall | Bangor | This is a multiple segment tornado with two segments that passed through portions of Marshall and Hardin counties. This is the first segment in Marshall county. As the first tornado from this supercell began to occlude and pull NE, a second tornado appears to have formed a mile to the south and east. A path of more intense damage was noted on a survey that began just north of Marble Road between Eastman and Fredrick Ave. The tornado grazed three farmsteads, causing mostly tree and some outbuilding damage. As the tornado moved into an area with more trees around mile three of its path, convergent wind patterns were noted on the ground survey to the north and south of the track, with a 100-150 yard wide path through a line of trees along a creek east of U Ave. After crossing Ingram Ave, the tornado caused roof damage to at least one outbuilding. The tornado then moved in Hardin county. |
| 18:15Z | EF1 | KDMX | IA | Madison | Patterson | The tornado touched down NW of Patterson where an RFD surge was located and a curling motion noted in the damage patterns just upstream of the start point. The tornado proceeded to damage several small groves of trees over the next 1.9 miles. Here the tornado strengthened to EF1 where it snapped or uprooted several hundred trees. The path was often sporadic, owing likely to the hilly terrain of the area. The worst damage occurred to a home 2.5 miles NW of Bevington, which had the detached garage roof fail and take out part of the house roof as well. Roof and siding damage was noted to 5 homes. |
| 18:17Z | EF1 | KDMX | IA | Hardin | Union | This is a multiple segment tornado with three segments that passed through portions of Story, Marshall and Hardin counties. This is the third and final segment in Hardin county. The tornado cycled, made a hard right turn, and began to intensify again after crossing into Hardin County. EF1 damage was sustained to wooden power poles and trees along 335th St. between T and U Ave. Turning NE again after crossing U Ave, the tornado roamed through open farmland and weakened, only causing intermittent tree damage after crossing County Road S62 1.5 miles south of Union. The tornado dissipated shortly before reaching the Iowa River. |
| 18:23Z | EF0 | KDMX | IA | Hardin | Union | This was a multiple segment tornado with two segment including portions of Marshall and Hardin counties. This is the second and final segment in Hardin county. After crossing into Hardin county, the narrowing tornado left a highly convergent tree damage pattern across 335th St. The path washed out in a pasture NE of this point just west of the Iowa River. |
| 18:27Z | EF1 | KDMX | IA | Warren | Martensdale | This tornado formed north of Martensdale and quickly tracked to the SE, reaching its widest and strongest point just east of the city where it damaged dozens of trees.
