Weather Service Confirms Tornado in Southwest Missouri
Authorities say storms have damaged trees, downed power lines and churned up at least one small tornado in southwest Missouri.
National Weather Service meteorologist Drew Albert says an EF-0 tornado has been confirmed near Diggins in Webster County. It uprooted a tree and caused other minor damage Sunday afternoon.
Meteorologists also suspect a tornado touched down later Sunday near the town of Aurora. Crews will be sent Monday to investigate damage there and in Barton County.
