Episode Narrative An unusual mid winter tornado outbreak occurred over southwest and central Missouri. 31 tornadoes struck the region within a 15 hour time frame on 7 January into early morning 8 January. Two tornadoes intensified to EF-3 status while five tornadoes caused EF-2 damage. All other tornadoes during this outbreak were surveyed and given EF-0 and EF-1 status. Multiple training supercells spawned most of these tornadoes that occurred along the Interstate 44 corridor. Toward the end of this episode, a broken squall line spawned numerous EF-0 and EF-1 tornadoes across the southern Missouri Ozarks.
Event Narrative A National Weather Service storm survey revealed that an EF-1 tornado tracked across a rural section of west central Christian County. This tornado damaged numerous homes while destroying two mobile homes. One injury resulted from this tornado as one women was hit by debris as the tornado destroyed her mobile home.
