Sixty to 90 mph winds impacted nearly all of Jasper County. Damage to trees, structures, buisiness signs, and power poles was widespread. The most significant damage occurred from winds knocking over a television tower at KSN TV on the west side of Joplin. This television tower fell into portions of the studio building, and caused the station to be off-air for several weeks. Part of the tower also fell on a nearby residence, destroying a vehicle and damaging a house. Thousands of Jasper County residences were left without power for several days. Several other homes were damaged from large trees falling on them. The Joplin Globe estimated that at least 2,000 homes had some roof damage and nearly 1500 trees were knocked over.
