An EF-1 tornado briefly touched down in Douglas County along North Summers Circle. The tornado uprooted and snapped a few trees at the beginning of the track. The tornado intensified as it crossed Kings Highway, snapping and uprooting trees along Plum Crest Road, Cherry Dale Drive, Orchard Road, and Apple Valley Road. The NWS survey determined at least 10 homes had trees fall on them in this area. The tornado continued east, crossing Apple Way Court and Yeager Road and snapping and uprooting trees there as well as along Greenwood Drive before lifting as it approached Dorset Shoals Road.
