Survey Summary:
A tornado produced a Tornadic Debris Signature (TDS) from the KINX
WSR-88D in an area of trees northwest of Pawhuska that was
inaccessible by road. The tornado moved northeast and snapped
multiple power poles west of County Road 4201. Any damage that
occurred other than the power poles was inaccessible by road, and
could therefore not be assessed. Much of the path details are
estimates based on the radar TDS and aerial imagery.
