Statement as of 3:28 PM CST on January 2, 2011 ... Two Washington tornadoes surveyed... National Weather Service personnel conducted a survey of Franklin County a few miles south of Washington Missouri today and found damage resulting from two short track tornadoes. The first tornado touched down along Country Club Road and produced minor tree damage. It continued northeast and struck a farm where it removed the majority of the roof from a large metal pole barn. Another outbuilding sustained roof damage and the residence had some shingles blown off. The damage to the pole barn is rated EF1 intensity while the rest of the damage at this location is EF0. The tornado crossed Country Club Road near a sharp curve to the west. A house had shingles missing at this location as well as minor tree damage. The tornado lifted just past this point. The maximum intensity is rated EF1 with maximum wind speeds near 90 mph. The path width was 100 yards and a path length of three quarters of a mile. A second weaker tornado formed near the intersection of Country Club Road and Country Club Lane where it blew over a Road sign and produced minor trim damage to a home. The tornado continued northeast and passed through a new subdivision and produced minor tree damage. The tornado lifted before reaching Highway 47. The intensity of this tornado is rated EF0 with a path width of 50 yards and a path length of one half mile. |
