Tornado. This tornado was a continuation from Swisher County. The tornado damaged numerous electrical transmission lines with power poles snapped along the path. Several homes sustained significant roof damage. One home lost large sections of roof |decking material and this together with a collapsed cell phone |tower led to an EF2 rating. Otherwise, damage to power poles, out |buildings, trees, and fencing suggested EF0 to EF1 ratings along |the tornado path. This tornado handed off to a new tornado - the |Palo Duro Canyon to Washburn tornado - just east of its path and |both tornadoes occurred simultaneously for several minutes before |the first tornado dissipated.

Tornado. The supercell underwent another odd handoff from the Palo Duro Canyon tornado near Highway 1258 which was documented by storm chasers in the area. Again, both the initial and new developing tornado co-existed for a period of time creating a wide damage path Near County Road 1 in Armstrong County. This tornado path remained in very rural country with few damage indicators and was likely stronger than suggested by the very limited rating. Along the path the tornado snapped a few small diameter power poles and destroyed a couple out buildings. It also pushed over a semi before it dissipated just north of Highway 287.

Tornado. A brief secondary tornado was documented by storm chasers and|residents in the area with video and photographs. This tornado|was just north of the main tornado and appears to have been quickly|absorbed by the larger circulation. The tornado damaged a barn and|several power lines along its short track.
