Survey Summary:
An EF-0 tornado touched down around 9.5 miles east of Canton along
CR 1321 then moved northeast passing south and east of Grand
Saline before crossing US Highway 80 and lifting north of Silver
Lake. One home on FM 1255 lost part of the wall on an addition
built over the garage, and a mobile home along FM 1255 near CR
1605 had roof and porch damage. Another home suffered roof damage
on CR 1701. Several trees were also uprooted or damaged along the
path. The tornado may have crossed into Wood County for a short 
distance, but due to the lack of roads in the area this could not 
be confirmed.
