            A tornado developed west of County Road 2160
            in Randolph County during the early morning
            on May 7. It was initially weak, damaging
            mainly trees along County Road 2180 before
            it strengthened as it approached Route D.
            One property featured multiple small trees
            uprooted in various directions as well as
            minor roof damage. Along Route D, much
            larger trees were downed or uprooted, with
            more roof damage to property. A water tank
            was destroyed, with part of it blown over
            100 yards to the northeast. Just east of
            Route D, several trees were snapped at their
            tops in a large grove. The tornado then
            shifted northeastward, damaging a barn just
            west of Moberly as well as several trees.
            The tornado then reached the west side of
            Moberly, producing considerable tree damage
            just west and northwest of downtown. Several
            power lines and poles were downed near the
            intersection of Reed Street and Emerson
            Street. Multiple trees were downed to the
            northeast, including on Bond Street and
            Franklin Street. Some of these trees were
            uprooted, falling on property and causing
            considerable tree and vehicle damage.
            Shingle damage and broken windows were also
            observed at several locations. The tornado
            lifted just southwest of the railroad
            tracks, with sporadic straight-line wind
            damage noted to the northeast on the north
            side of Moberly.
