Episode Narrative The dryline interacting with an unstable airmass, producing severe thunderstorms on May 26-27. As the airmass remained unstable, a dissipating front and dryline continued to produce rounds of severe thunderstorms on May 28 and 29. One of these supercell thunderstorms produced a strong tornado east southeast of Junction. Many reports of large hail and damaging winds were reported along with a few tornadoes and flash flooding.
Event Narrative Hardwood tree damage was the primary damage indicator used in the survey. A few hardwood trees were snapped at the trunk approximately 1 mile west southwest of Burkett, indicating max wind speeds of 90-95 mph. Most of the damage was EF0 as the tornado damaged many large tree limbs. A few outbuildings were completely destroyed at the beginning of the damage path. A community center Burkett had damage to its roof.
