The tornado then completely destroyed a single-wide manufactured home, with the base frame of the home twisted and tossed 100 yards to the east. Further to the south, another home sustained significant roof and structural damage when large gas tanks were tossed into it. The tornado then continued to snap numerous trees along Cascade Creek Road and along Wyr 20000 Road, as well as removing roofing material from another home on Union Valley Road. The tornado continued to track southeast across a heavily wooded area before crossing into Sevier County Arkansas.
03:24Z EF2 KSRX AR Sevier Cheatham This is the continuation of the Eastern McCurtain County EF-2 tornado. This tornado snapped and uprooted numerous trees along Kellum Road in Northwest Sevier County, and continued to touch down intermittently several times as it tracked southeast. It touched down again along Bellah Mine Road as it crossed DeQueen Lake, with additional trees snapped and uprooted along Story Creek Road and DeQueen Lake Road. Minor metal roof damage to a garage of a home also occurred in this area. The damage swath broadened as the tornado approached Highway 71, when it crossed Crosstrails Road, damaging the roofs of two chicken houses while uprooting and snapping numerous trees. The tornado continued on to cross Highway 71 where numerous trees were snapped, a single-wide mobile home was rolled and destroyed, and the roof of a farm building was partially damaged. The tornado snapped approximately ten more trees before lifting just south of Highway 71/371 several miles east of DeQueen just east of the intersection of Farm to Market Road. Although the tornado will be rated an EF-2 with estimated maximum winds near 125 mph, found in Eastern McCurtain County Oklahoma, the tornadic damage in North-central Sevier County was estimated to be EF-1, with estimated maximum winds up to 105 mph. The total tornado path length from Eastern McCurtain County Oklahoma into North-central Sevier County Arkansas was near 20 miles.
