| Episode Narrative | The approach of an anomalously strong (for mid-June) upper-level disturbance lead to a widespread severe weather outbreak across portions of the forecast area during the afternoon into late evening of the 15th. This included the development of numerous supercell thunderstorms across the area. Despite relatively high cloud bases, strong low-level instability and wind shear aided tornadic outcomes, with a tornado occurring in eastern Clay County. Reports of large hail were also received. |
| Event Narrative | Spotters and chasers reported a tornado southeast of Henrietta. This tornado likely developed near New London Road about 2 miles south of US-287. It initially moved southeast, and then east crossing New York Road where a large tree was downed, an outbuilding destroyed and one house received roof damage. Chaser video showed the tornado as a slowly rotating dust column with faster moving subvorticies at times rotating around the primary circulation. |
