SURVEY SUMMARY:
A BRIEF/WEAK TORNADO DEVELOPED JUST WEST OF STRASBURG AT 821 PM
CDT ON JULY 11 WITH MINOR TREE DAMAGE OBSERVED NEAR STATE ROUTE
58. THE TORNADO MOVED INTO THE VILLAGE OF STRASBURG, DAMAGING
SEVERAL TREES FROM THE SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST SIDE OF TOWN. MOST
OF THE TREE LIMBS WERE SIX INCHES OR LESS IN DIAMETER. SOME OF
THE TREES WERE SNAPPED AT THEIR TOPS, PARTICULARLY ON THE
NORTHEAST SIDE OF TOWN, WHERE AT LEAST A DOZEN TREES WERE
NOTICEABLY SNAPPED JUST SOUTH OF A CORN FIELD JUST EAST OF TOWN.
THE LAST SIGN OF DAMAGE WAS OBSERVED ON STRUZICK ROAD JUST
NORTHEAST OF STRASBURG, WHERE SEVERAL SMALL TREE LIMBS WERE
DOWNED ON A NORTH-SOUTH STRETCH OF THE ROAD SOUTH OF 191ST
STREET. MINOR DAMAGE WAS ALSO OBSERVED NEAR ROUTE 58 ON THE
SOUTHEAST SIDE OF TOWN, BUT THE SPORADIC NATURE OF THE DAMAGE
AND THE CONSISTENT EAST DIRECTION OF MINOR PROPERTY, TREE, AND
STREET SIGN DAMAGE SUGGEST THIS MAY HAVE BEEN STRAIGHTLINE WINDS
IMMEDIATELY TO THE SOUTH OF THE TORNADO. THE TORNADO APPEARS TO
HAVE LASTED APPROXIMATELY TWO MINUTES, WITH A PATH LENGTH LESS
THAN A MILE AND A MAXIMUM WIDTH AROUND 200 YARDS (THOUGH MOSTLY
MUCH LESS NARROWER THAN THIS).
