April 2025Tornado (EF1)Almyra-This tornado is believed to have begun west of Old Almyra Way south of Almyra where debris was noted in a field roughly 100-200 yards to the east of the first Almyra tornado which occurred nearly 25 minutes prior. This tornado then tracked northeast crossing near the intersection of Moss Road and Vos Road where several wooden power poles were snapped. There was a clear delineation in damage between the first Almyra tornado and the second. No additional damage could be found farther northeast, so this is likely where the tornado dissipated. This tornado was rated an EF1 with maximum estimated winds of 110 mph. The path length was 0.9 miles.
