The most focused damage was along the corner of Eucalyptus Avenue and 4th Street, where several trees were uprooted or snapped. As the tornado continued northeast, it tore off half of a sheet metal roof of a house as it crossed Highway 204, while also snapping a cross of a power pole. Additional trees were snapped or uprooted before the tornado lifted just north of Highway 204 on the northeast side of Cushing.
