Episode Narrative |
Low pressure tracked across eastern Iowa and northwest Illinois during the evening hours of April 25, 2012. A warm front also moved north into the area triggering severe thunderstorms across extreme southeast Iowa and extreme northeast Missouri. These storms dumped large hail in extreme southeast Iowa and even produced a tornado in extreme northeast Missouri. In Clark county, Missouri a supercell produced an EF1 tornado that touched down 2 miles east of Luray and moved southeast to about 4 miles southeast of Luray. This tornado damaged grain bins, barns and other outbuildings. A house at the beginning of the tornado's path was extensively damaged and was shifted off its foundation. Another house at the end of the path had the siding and roof damaged. The tornado moved southeast for about 2 miles and was on the ground for an estimated 5 minutes. No injuries were reported. Golf ball size hail fell in Kahoka, Missouri causing damage to vehicles. |
