For less than a minute, under the broader, flatter wall cloud, this persistent, scuddy, rotating lowering yielded rising, modestly rotating tendrils of scud that coiled up from the surface. Moistened considerably by at least two storms’ cores (this one and another to the north-northeast), as well as rain the previous day, the weakly tornadic circulation couldn’t raise dust. Nonetheless, with a well-defined concentration of helically rising cloud material off ground level, it (barely) counted as a tornado. The brief circulation posed no danger to the house nor the inhabitants thereof, as it was moving to the right (NNE). This would be the first of two modest tornadoes I would see on this chase day, the other being a safe distance away while stuck in mud.
