Moving north, the tornado impacted another home along South FM 113, damaging a carport, sheds, barns, and trees. The tornado took a more northeasterly track after reaching East Poe Prairie Road, causing relatively minor damage as it moved north along the west side of Stephens Road. However, the tornado nearly directly hit another home on the north end of Stephens Road resulting in roof damage and considerable tree damage on the property. From here, the tornado was mostly tracked for another 2 to 3 miles by broken tree limbs and other tree damage until the tornado dissipated near Old Millsap Road and Sandy Hill Road.
