April 28, 2025 6:37 PM CT | UNK | Belvue | KS | Storm chaser videos showed what was originally a gustnado feature becoming connected to the updraft on the leading edge of the gust front as it moved through Belvue. This appeared to help the feature become attached to the base of the cloud where rotation was noted for a short time. As a result... it appears that a brief weak (EF0) tornado did occur before the feature was overwhelmed by surging outflow and dissipated. The small feature moved ENE for a few miles doing minor damage to tree limbs and two outbuildings. |
