Minor roof damage also occurred to another home, along with several trees that were snapped.

The tornado lifted as it approached a large grove of trees on the eastern side of Hillsboro Road. Overall, the tornado was rated EF1 with a path length of 0.74 miles. The max path width was 125 yards. No deaths or injuries were reported.
