Numerous storm chasers observed this tornado at various times. The tornado initially developed around 1913 CST approximately 5 miles north of Nash and began moving east-northeast. After a general east-northeast course for about 6 miles, the tornado then began curving northeast and eventually moved north-northwest for the final 5 miles crossing state highway 11 about 8.5 miles west of Medford, then approaching Wakita from the southeast and dissipating approximately 2 miles south-southeast of town. Power lines were damaged, but no structural damage was reported despite the long path as the tornado primarily moved through farmland.
