Rating: EF0 Estimated Peak Wind: 70 mph Path Length /statute/: 0.77 miles Path Width /maximum/: 200 yards Fatalities: 0 Injuries: 0 Start Date: 07/11/2025 Start Time: 08:21 PM CDT Start Location: Strasburg / Cass County / MO Start Lat/Lon: 38.761 / -94.1746 End Date: 07/11/2025 End Time: 08:23 PM CDT End Location: Strasburg / Cass County / MO End Lat/Lon: 38.7633 / -94.161 Survey Summary: A brief/weak tornado developed just west of Strasburg at 821 pm CDT on July 11 with minor tree damage observed near State Route 58. The tornado moved into the village of Strasburg, damaging several trees from the southwest to northeast side of town. Most of the tree limbs were six inches or less in diameter. Some of the trees were snapped at their tops, particularly on the northeast side of town, where at least a dozen trees were noticeably snapped just south of a corn field just east of town. The last sign of damage was observed on Struzick Road just northeast of Strasburg, where several small tree limbs were downed on a north-south stretch of the road south of 191st Street. Minor damage was also observed near Route 58 on the southeast side of town, but the sporadic nature of the damage and the consistent east direction of minor property, tree, and street sign damage suggest this may have been straightline winds immediately to the south of the tornado. The tornado appears to have lasted approximately two minutes, with a path length less than a mile and a maximum width around 200 yards (though mostly much less narrower than this). && EF Scale: The Enhanced Fujita Scale classifies tornadoes into the following categories: EF0.....65 to 85 mph EF1.....86 to 110 mph EF2.....111 to 135 mph EF3.....136 to 165 mph EF4.....166 to 200 mph EF5.....>200 mph NOTE: The information in this statement is preliminary and subject to change pending final review of the event and publication in NWS Storm Data. $$ CMS
