The tornado was observed to lift just north near the intersection of route 1179 and Riverstone Drive. The tornado was rated at the top of the EF1 scale as a few of the homes had significant portions of roofs removed. Majority of damage was EF0 to low-end EF1. Damage dollar amounts are estimated.

19:20Z EF1 KTWX KS Pottawatomie Wamego A tornado began along the north bank of the Kansas River in Wamego and moved north through the city. Thankfully only minor tree limb and shingle damage occurred in the city as the tornado was weak in this location. However as it moved north out of the city the tornado intensified and produced more significant structural damage to homes north of Wamego. The tornado continued to travel north and ended north of Louisville. The tornado was rated EF1.

21:00Z EF0 KTWX KS Shawnee Rossville Video of a brief tornado was produced showing a circulation in an open field. The chasers stated that the tornado was present for around one minute before lifting. No damage.
21:06Z EF0 KTWX KS Shawnee Silver Lake Small tornado was apparently embedded within a bow echo that moved across Silver Lake. The straight line winds associated with the bow echo produced more widespread damage both north and south of highway 24 where several irrigation pivots were overturned. A more concentrated area of tree and minor structural damage occurred south of highway 24 beginning in southwest parts of Silver Lake and continuing ENE for approximately 1.5 miles. One outbuilding was severely damaged where appeared the wind entered on the southwest side and contributed to the failure of the structure.
22:03Z EF0 KEAX MO Johnson Burtville A brief tornado formed near Whiteman Air Force Base near Warrensburg, Missouri, and lasted only a couple minutes before dissipating. Little to no damage was reported from this tornado; however, it was noted in the official observation from the Whiteman AFB tower.
22:52Z EF1 KHGX TX Montgomery Granger Isolated straight line wind damage, mainly in the form of downed trees, was|found across Montgomery county (particularly the southern 2/3s part of|the county). However, the it appears a definitive tornado track started in|western Conroe from in and just west of the Canyon Creek subdivision off of|Longmire Rd. This small tornado tracked generally west-northwest to the |south of FM 3083 for about a mile. The strongest winds, likely reaching|90 mph EF1 range, was near the start of the tornado just to the east of|Longmire. Most of the rest of the tree damage was consistent with EF0 winds|before the tornado dissipated.
23:05Z EF0 KGLD CO Cheyenne Kit Carson Touched down roughly two miles east of Highway 287 just south of CR C. The landspout moved little if any during its lifetime. No damage was reported as it remained in unpopulated areas of the county.
23:23Z EF0 KGLD CO Kit Carson Seibert A tornado was reported north of Seibert. Based on radar imagery at the time of the report the tornado developed near the CR Z and Highway 59 intersection on the east side of the highway. The tornado then moved north-northeast before ending northeast of the CR DD and CR 16 intersection. No damage was reported with this tornado due to moving over open country.
01:01Z EF1 KDYX TX Coleman Echo 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.
