A tornado developed west of County Road 2160 in Randolph County during the early morning on May 7. It was initially weak, damaging mainly trees along County Road 2180 before it strengthened as it approached Route D. One property featured multiple small trees uprooted in various directions as well as minor roof damage. Along Route D, much larger trees were downed or uprooted, with more roof damage to property. A water tank was destroyed, with part of it blown over 100 yards to the northeast. Just east of Route D, several trees were snapped at their tops in a large grove. The tornado then shifted northeastward, damaging a barn just west of Moberly as well as several trees. The tornado then reached the west side of Moberly, producing considerable tree damage just west and northwest of downtown. Several power lines and poles were downed near the intersection of Reed Street and Emerson Street. Multiple trees were downed to the northeast, including on Bond Street and Franklin Street. Some of these trees were uprooted, falling on property and causing considerable tree and vehicle damage. Shingle damage and broken windows were also observed at several locations. The tornado lifted just southwest of the railroad tracks, with sporadic straight-line wind damage noted to the northeast on the north side of Moberly. && $$ CMS
