Tornado moved into Greene County from Guthrie County. This tornado produced damage through rural south and east portions of the county. The tornado passed just southeast of the hamlet of Cooper and through Grand Junction. Most of the damage was EF0 to EF1 with tree and minor house damage. However, the tornado strengthened north of Grand Junction with power pole damage and then toppling an industrial wind mill along W Avenue with an EF2 rating at that location. The circulation then destroyed a confinement building before dissipating several miles northeast of Dana.
