20:10Z EF0 KICT KS Sumner Conway Spgs Brief tornado touchdown in an open field.
20:19Z EF0 KICT KS Sedgwick Viola A nearly stationary rope tornado touched down in an open field.
20:37Z EF2 KICT KS Sedgwick Clearwater A large tornado moved across rural areas in Sedgwick county causing damage to a few farmsteads. None of the major structures took a direct hit from the tornado. Most of the damage was limited to power poles, barns, silos, and farm equipment. A horse trailer was thrown for approximately 220 yards by the tornado. The Doppler on Wheels was also in the vicinity and recorded 155 mph winds at 70 meters above ground level. This would be an EF3, however, based on damage it did not appear that wind speeds at that level reached the surface. Hence the EF2 rating.
21:12Z EF0 KICT KS Sumner Perth Brief tornado touchdown in an open field.
21:22Z EF1 KTLX OK Oklahoma Edmond A tornado touched down in Edmond just northwest of 33rd Street and Boulevard Street.

The tornado turned northeast just before crossing Interstate 35 with isolated EF1 damage beginning just west of Interstate 35. One home north of E 15th Street and east of Interstate 35 suffered significant roof damage just before the tornado dissipated north of 15th Street and Air Depot Blvd.
21:33Z EF1 KTLX OK Oklahoma Arcadia Lake A brief tornado was observed just northeast of Lake Arcdia. The tornado damaged a power pole along Post Road just north of State Highway 66, otherwise no known damage occurred.

The tornado began producing EF2 damage soon after crossing Luther Road where an outbuilding was destroyed. At least two mobile homes were destroyed as the tornado continued to the east-northeast. The tornado crossed Waterloo Road and moved into Logan County.
21:46Z EF0 KICT KS Cowley Udall Tornado moved over open country.
21:51Z EF1 KUEX NE Greeley Wolbach This tornado touched down a few miles northeast of Wolbach and was on the ground for approximately 2 minutes. With an estimated top wind speed of 90 mph, damage from this tornado included a destroyed mobile home and outbuilding and broken tree limbs of 5 to 8 inches in diameter.

21:55Z EF1 KICT KS Cowley Udall A tornado moved through a farmstead and caused minor damage.
21:56Z EF3 KTLX OK Lincoln Fallis The large tornado continued to move northeast from Logan County into Lincoln County. The tornado passed just southeast of Fallis and then clipped the southeastern portion of Carney. It produced EF3 damage to a number of homes from just south of Carney into the southeast portion of the town. The tornado finally dissipated about 3 miles southeast of Tryon. Motions observed visually in this tornado suggest that the tornado was likely stronger then EF3 in western Lincoln County, but no damage indicators were available that would have supplied a rating higher than EF3 in this area.
22:05Z EF0 KTWX KS Marion Ramona A brief touchdown was reported.
22:17Z EF0 KTWX KS Dickinson Hope Report from Ramona volunteer FD of a brief tornado touchdown north of town in Dickinson County. No damage and circulation on ground was only visible briefly.
22:27Z EF1 KTWX KS Lyon (emp)emporia Muni Ar Tornado touched down near the Emporia airport and produced EF1 damage to a home and outbuilding on the property. The tornado produced a non-continuous damage path along a 9 mile track producing subsequent EF0 damage along the remainder of its track. The tornado lifted with additional straight line wind damage noted further north just west of Reading. There was some question whether this was another short lived tornado however after further investigation it appears that this was due to non-tornado winds within a bowing line segment of storms.
22:59Z EF0 KICT KS Cowley Arkansas City A rope tornado briefly touched down.
