When	Event	Place named	Harm	What the report says
July 2007	Tornado (EF1)	Roseglen	4 hurt, $80,000	NWS storm survey was completed for this event. An EF1 tornado was confirmed to have occurred on the Fort Berthold Reservation of Mclean County starting from 6 miles south of White Shield and ending 8 miles south-southeast of White Shield. The path was about 1 1/2 miles long. One manufactured home was rolled and badly damaged near the beginning of the path. It had three occupants, one adult male and one adult female approximately in their 30's, and one four year old child. All three had minor injuries. A pickup truck at this location was totally destroyed as the home rolled onto it and the truck acted as a stop. Another manufactured home was completely destroyed about one mile from the first. It had one adult male occupant, age 53, who was seriously injured and hospitalized. There was also significant damage to crops in the area, with 100 percent crop loss in some fields caused by wind driven hail up to 1.5 inches in diameter. Wind speed estimated 105 mph.
