            An embedded circulation in a line of
            thunderstorms beginning around 10:26 PM CDT
            resulted in a narrow EF-1 tornado that began
            in south Blue Springs, Missouri, and
            continued northeast for 5.5 miles to Grain
            Valley. Grain Valley had the most
            significant damage, with damage to a few
            commercial buildings, with estimated 100 mph
            winds. The tornado impacted an RV
            dealership, where several trailers were
            moved and two were flipped into the ditch
            near the eastbound lanes of I-70. The
            tornado decreased in intensity as it crossed
            the interstate with sporadic EF-0 damage.
