| Episode Narrative | Severe thunderstorms moved across the northern half of the Nebraska Panhandle producing severe winds in excess of 55 knots, hail stones up to tennis balls, and a brief landspout. The landspout occurred over the open country so much details to discern proper rating, length and width are unavailable to properly address. |
| Event Narrative | Observer documented quick lifespan of landspout over the open country. No official survey was performed as no official damage was reported to discern any rating other than unknown. Timing and location based on spotter and radar imagery with length and width solely as estimated given little evidence to adequately calculate. |
