Two additional tornado paths were found in National Weather Service Surveys Friday, both from the same storm that produced the Plainfield-Indianapolis EF1 Tornado.
The first tornado from this thunderstorm touched down at approximately 1:30 PM EDT, 5.4 miles northwest of the town of Gosport along Truesdel Road, just east of McFarren Road, in Owen County. This tornado was rated EF0 with winds estimated at 85 mph uprooting trees and causing minor damage to several buildings. This tornado lifted at 1:31 PM EDT after traveling one half mile.
The second tornado touched down at approximately 1:50 PM EDT, 1.5 miles southeast of the town of Eminence along County Road 500N, just east of the Craver Road / SR42 bend in Morgan County. This tornado was rated EF1 with peak winds estimated at 94 mph that uprooted numerous trees and destroyed one barn. This second tornado lifted at 1:51 PM EDT after traveling approximately one quarter mile.
(An NWS survey Thursday revealed the Plainfield-Indianapolis tornado path being slightly longer than the original estimate. The path length was extended approximately 1/2 mile. Time on ground extended by two minutes. Damage information remains generally the same.)
