A National Weather Service damage survey crew found evidence of EF-1 damage, especially near the Bolivar community in western Denton County, Texas. This tornado formed from the same parent supercell which produced a tornado in Wise County. The tornado began in the far southwestern portion of Denton County, producing damage to open farm and ranch land. Once the storm moved into the Bolivar community, damage to several roofs on homes were noted, as well as substantial damage to barns.
