A weak tornado was spawned in Faulkner County. The tornado developed 2.7 miles west-southwest of Enola. The tornado damaged a house that was under construction. A large metal barn was destroyed, with two cows killed and three injured. A couple of sheds collapsed and tin was torn off or peeled back on several barns. Two cattle trailers were overturned and a 4-wheeler was moved about 30 feet. A number of trees were blown down along the path of the tornado. Some swing sets were overturned and yard furniture was blown around. The tornado dissipated a little more than a mile west-southwest of Enola.
