            A brief EF0 tornado occurred north of
            Montrose from the same mesovortex that
            produced the tornado just southeast of
            Butler. The first signs of damage occurred
            just west of Route K, where a farm building
            had metal roofing damage, and small trees
            were downed. A larger tree was split just
            east of Route K, with other minor limbs
            downed in the area. The tornado moved
            through generally inaccessible property
            before reaching Route RA between County
            Roads 250 and 320, where multiple trees
            suffered damage. No damage was noted farther
            west or east of this path. Given that the
            tree damage was in a variety of directions,
            the damage confirms the presence of a brief
            tornado. The office also received spotter
            video of a power flash in this general area,
            with a strong indication of rotation on
            radar.
