| 14:37Z | EF1 | KMLB | FL | Martin | Hobe Sound | The tornado touched down in a wooded area to the west of US-1 around 10:37 AM, very near the Island Mall shopping plaza. The system crossed US-1 where it continued to produced a swath of mainly vegetative damage, with numerous trees felled within the parking lot of a second shopping plaza. The circulation moved east toward A1A where additional damage to softwood and hardwood trees was noted in the vicinity of Hobe Sound Elementary School.||The most notable damage was along Bridge Road just before where the road crosses the Indian River Lagoon. Here, a total of 20 to 25 large ficus trees were toppled (uprooted) as a result of wind gusts that peaked between 85 to 95 mph. The tornado moved over the Indian River Lagoon and into Jupiter Island where more trees were|felled from peak winds of 75 to 85 mph. Finally, the circulation moved into the Atlantic Ocean where it briefly became a waterspout before dissipating.||The vast majority of damage related to this tornado was confined to vegetation, most notably hardwood and softwood trees. Only minor structural damage, including a home|with torn shingles and a grocery store with limited roof damage, was noted during the survey. |
| 23:08Z | EF1 | KDLH | MN | Lake | Isabella | Tornado damage initially appeared on the northeast shore of Tanner Lake (east of Dumbbell Lake), crossing Wanless Road (Forest Road 172) on a southeastward track. Satellite imagery depicts sporadic tree damage along the path, with a particularly impressive swath of trees that were uprooted or snapped east of East General Grade Road (Forest Road 362) measuring approximately 150 yards in width and a quarter mile in length. Damage continues to be evident for another mile or so before no additional discernible damage is evident. No fatalities or injuries were reported. Tornado rating was determined based on satellite imagery, and NWS Duluth is coordinating to learn more about any air or ground surveyed damage from our partners at the Superior National Forest which may result in a future revision in the tornado rating. |
| 23:18Z | EF2 | KMPX | MN | Crow Wing | Jenkins | Tornado developed over Upper Whitefish Lake (no tornadic damage found or reported on the northwestern shore indicating the tornado touched down on land before crossing the lake) and traveled southeast towards Pelican Lake. Extensive damage to private residences and forest along Old Whiskey Road and Ruttger Rd (referred to by locals as ���Tip Top Point���) and across Bertha and Clamshell Lake towards the far eastern reach of Whitefish Golf Club���s holes. Damage path was the widest near Old Whiskey and Ruttger Road, around 700 yards across, with tree damage even identified on the island to the north of Old Whiskey Road. Over 80% of trees were uprooted or snapped near the base, and numerous homes showed minor to major roof damage. The worst of the roof damage was several homes which had over 50% of the roof deck uplifted and removed. Homeowners also reported a nearly hour-long storm surge of 1 to 2 feet from Upper Whitefish Lake. Minnesota State Patrol helicopter footage shows some scattered tornadic tree damage south of County Road 16 near Clear Lake before no additional damage has been found or reported. No fatalities or injuries reported. |
| 23:42Z | EF0 | KDLH | MN | Carlton | Wright | Tornado developed on or near the Aitkin/Carlton County line and traveled southeast towards Highway 210 between Wright and Cromwell. Minor tree damage was noted on West Road near the start of the tornado path, with a broad area of large branches down and a few trees snapped towards the top. The tornado then traveled across a mainly marsh/bog landscape, crossing Center Road where power lines were damaged and widespread tree damage was noted along a 50 yard stretch of road. The tornado track continued on a southeast to east-southeast path, with the last signs of damage near to just south of Highway 210 near Woodbury Lake where a few clusters of tree damage were noted. No injuries or fatalities were reported, and property damage was very limited, with only a handful of homes/buildings impacted. |
| 23:45Z | EF2 | KMPX | MN | Crow Wing | Wolford | A tornado redeveloped near Wolford, from the same storm that produced the first tornado near Crosslake. Initial damage located along County Road 30, south of County Highway 11/Mississippi River, mostly trees snapped and uprooted. Tornado continued east- southeast across Rabbit Lake just north of Cuyuna and then towards Highway 210. Damage along the western shore of Rabbit Lake affected private residences with a RV flipped over, roof covering material partially removed, and numerous trees snapped which lead to secondary home damage, including several collapsed out- buildings and garages. The tornado crossed Highway 210 near mile marker 145, as evidenced by both tree damage and storm chaser footage. It then took a southeastward path across portions of western Cedar Lake, producing extensive tree damage and pockets of residential property damage to roofs and garages, including a fish house that was picked up and thrown nearly 100 yards. This is the area of low-end EF-2 damage. The tornado path then continued southeast, crossing into Aitkin County before dissipating at 1904 CDT. The tornado was only rated EF-0 once crossing into Aitkin County. No fatalities or injuries were reported. |
| 23:58Z | EF0 | KDLH | MN | Aitkin | Aitkin | The tornado initially formed near Wolford in Crow Wing County and entered Aitkin County near the end of Cedar Lake Drive on Cedar Lake. The tornado path was to the southeast, crossing 456th Place, 320th Street, and, finally, 310th Street before lifting. This last section of the tornado path after Cedar Lake shows damage to numerous trees via satellite imagery before the visible damage path ends just to the southwest of the intersection of 310th Street and Pioneer Avenue. The tornado was rates as an EF-0 in Aitkin County, but produced EF-2 damage in Crow Wing County just before crossing into Aitkin County. No fatalities or injuries were reported. |
| 00:03Z | EF1 | KDLH | MN | Aitkin | Aitkin | Another tornado developed on the northern portion of Hammal lake, where localized pockets of extensive tree damage were located, and one three-season cabin and boat house were completely destroyed and partially thrown into the water. The tornado continued east- southeast, uprooting and snapping several mature tree trunks as it crossed Highway 169 and Hanging Kettle Lake. The tornado then took a east-southeastward path through Ripple Lake, uprooting trees and knocking over an 85 foot tall antenna tower before the tornado ended over southeastern Ripple Lake. No fatalities or injuries were reported. |
| 00:12Z | EF0 | KOAX | NE | Burt | Decatur | An EF-0 tornado developed just north of Decatur, breaking tree limbs and bringing down power lines. The tornado lasted approximately 1 minute and was approximately 75 yards wide according to video and eyewitness reports. |
| 00:25Z | EF0 | KDLH | MN | Aitkin | Glen | A third tornado developed near Glen, MN. Storm chaser and spotter video depict a wispy tornado with no debris visible. Due to the rural and forested nature of this damage and no reports of damage, a ground survey has not been completed. This tornado rating and details may be updated in the future as additional aerial imagery becomes available. |
