The tornado began near West Mayfield Road and South Bowen Road where fence, shed and tree damage was found. The tornado traveled northeast from this location causing minor tree damage. Significant roof damage to several structures was noted along Colorado Lane. The tornado then crossed South Cooper Street and damaged a Burger Box fast food restaurant, Safelite AutoGlass store, and several warehouses in the area. The tornado damage in his location and along Colorado Lane was at EF-1 intensity. The tornado continued along an east-northeast track where it soon impacted the Waterdance and Mirage Apartments. Considerable roof damage was noted at these complexes, but the most significant damage occurred at the Waterdance Apartment complex. Large sections of the roof were ripped off of two buildings, resulting in an EF-2 rating at this location. From the apartment complex, the tornado weakened and traveled northeast for a few more miles before dissipating near East Park Row Drive and Carter Drive. Sporadic tree, siding, fence, and shingle damage was noted to the end of the path. The maximum winds with this tornado were around 115 mph.
