Survey Summary:
An EF-1 tornado touched down 1.5 miles south of the Red River near
the intersection of FM 1753 and County Road 101, or about 3.8
miles west of Ravenna, then moved southeast for 3 miles before
lifting around 3 miles southwest of Ravenna. The tornado initially
caused minor damage to trees and a home along FM 1753. As it moved
southeast across CR 1300, the tornado intensified and caused more
widespread tree damage, heavily damaged a barn, and caused minor
exterior damage to two homes. CR 1300 was blocked for 2 days due
to the downed trees. The tornado reached its peak intensity of 
105 mph and max width of 300 yards as it crossed CR 1305, 
completely destroying a mobile home, heavily damaging another 
mobile home and a large barn, causing minor damage to two other 
homes, and snapping and uprooting dozens of trees. A horse trailer
was also lifted and blown across the roadway. The tornado 
continued southeast through rural inaccessible forests before 
dissipating.

Survey Summary:
The same parent storm that produced the Ravenna tornado also
spawned another EF-1 tornado that touched down along FM 274 around
2 miles south of Ravenna, causing minor damage to a home and
blowing down a few trees. The tornado intensified as it continued
southeast, blowing down numerous trees in rural areas east of FM
274 and north of FM 898. Southwest of the tornado path, RFD or
inflow winds into the tornado blew down many more trees along FM
274 and FM 898 west of CR 1444. As the tornado crossed FM 898 near
CR 1445, a few homes suffered minor exterior damage, some
outbuildings were heavily damaged, and many large trees were
snapped or uprooted. A small silo along CR 1445 was lifted and
blown 350 yards to the southeast before landing. Notable cyclonic
patterns were also apparent in flattened grass in this area. The
tornado weakened as it crossed US 82 and Hwy 121, knocking down
just a few trees, causing very minor damage to a Fix & Feed store,
and blowing a few sheds into a field. As the tornado entered the
city of Bonham, it intensified again and blew down hundreds of
trees along residential streets in the northwest part of the city.
Three homes along Agnew Street suffered heavy wind damage (where
the maximum estimated winds of 100 mph occurred), a church on 
Franklin Ave lost its steeple, and another church on Oriental 
Street lost an exterior wall. RFD or inflow winds southwest of the
tornado track blew part of the roof off a Braums store on Hwy 
121, flattened the scoreboard at the Warriors stadium, and lifted 
part of the roof off the western side of Finley Oates elementary 
school. The tornado dissipated into a large downburst around Main 
Street, with straight-line winds of 60 to 80 mph blowing down 
dozens of trees and power lines and causing roof damage to a few 
buildings across the rest of Bonham.
