| Episode Narrative | Unorganized supercells formed along the dry line in Wallace/Logan counties and moved east into an increasingly unstable air mass. As the cells moved east, they merged into a line that extended from Greeley County to Sheridan County. The storms from this event produced a landspout tornado near Hoxie, KS, up to ping pong sized hail, and flash flooding in Grinnell, KS with a vehicle stuck in the water. |
| Event Narrative | A well documented landspout tornado occurred in Sheridan County. Numerous calls and reports were received. However, looking at the photographic and radar evidence, this appears to be one long-lived and slow moving landspout. A center pivot was overturned in a field and this is the only known damage from this event. As a result, an EF-0 rating was assigned with winds likely around 80 mph with this particular tornado. |
