When	Event	Place named	Harm	What the report says
March 2023	Tornado (EF2)	Kirby	5 hurt	This tornado started just north of Kirby, completely destroying\|two chicken houses on the west side of Arkansas Highway 27. The tornado\|moved north-northeast along highway 27, causing moderate roof\|damage to a home, and snapping several large trees at their\|trunks. The tornado continued to move north-northeast,\|paralleling Ebenezer Road where it did the most significant\|damage. Several tree lines along the road had snapped trunks. A\|mobile home on Ebenezer Road, which had securing tie-down straps,\|was completely lofted, rolled, and tossed approximately 100 feet\|into a tree line, completely destroying it. There were\|4 occupants, two only had minor injuries. Farther east on\|Ebenezer road, the tornado damaged a few more mobile homes. The\|first one was shifted off of it's supporting blocks, and some\|roof and siding damage was observed. There were three minor\|injuries noted among the occupants, and were transported to a\|local hospital. In the neighboring lot to the east, a large oak\|tree was uprooted onto a brand new mobile home, smashing the\|structure in the middle, twisting the supporting frame, snapping\|two of the tie-down straps, and effectively destroying the unit.\|There were no occupants at the time of the tornado. The tornado\|continued moving northeast of Ebenezer road, snapping several\|trees and power poles along the road. Damage was observed along\|Mason Road, with numerous large trees uprooted and snapped. A few\|large trees were blown onto a home on Mason Road, but only minor\|damage was observed on the home. The tornado dissipated shortly\|thereafter. This tornado was rated an EF2 with estimated peak winds\|of 135 mph.
