Kingdom City, the town this property stands in, in 25 storm reports between 1995 and 2019: 13 hail, 7 thunderstorm wind, 4 tornado, 1 lightning.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
A small tornado occurred along Highway 54 between Kingdom City and Fulton, destroying 4 mobile homes and damaging at least 6 others. The destroyed mobile homes were unoccupied. A nearby barn lost its roof and several nearby storage sheds were also destroyed.
Thunderstorm winds blew down several large trees near the intersection of I-70 and U.S. Highway 54. Some of the trees were at least 2 feet in diameter.
A line of severe storms moved through Callaway County. Numerous trees, tree limbs and power lines were blown down between Kingdom City, New Bloomfield and Holts Summit. A couple of utility poles were blown down along US Highway 54 near Kingdom City. Three miles north of New Bloomfield, a fallen tree damaged the roof of a large shed.
A small tornado formed northwest of Kingdom City and traveled about 2.5 miles to just west of Auxvasse. One barn was destroyed and several trees were either uprooted or snapped off 4 to 5 feet above the ground along the path.
Large trees were blown down across northwest parts of the county with 60 mph wind gusts reported near Auxvasse and along Interstate 70 around Kingdom City. As the line of storms moved through the Fulton area, several trees were blown down with one crushing a mobile home. Winds estimated at 70 mph also ripped sections of a roof off a lumber building.
