            *** 1 INJ *** 

            Update to time of previous tornado report: A 

            National Weather Service survey team, with 

            additional help from spotter video footage, 

            concluded a tornado occurred in far 

            northeast Burnet County during the late 

            afternoon of May 1st. The tornado formed 

            just west of County Road 223, about 1/10 of 

            a mile from the Burnet/Lampasas County line. 

            The tornado continued south along County 

            Road 223 just west of the Lampasas River for 

            a short distance, then turned southwest 

            crossing Panther Creek Road. After this, and 

            based on chaser accounts, the tornado may 

            have briefly lifted and reformed. The 

            tornado then turned southeast following 

            along and just east of County Road 223. The 

            tornado is estimated to have dissipated near 

            Taylor Lane. Due to the nearly continuous 

            damage path this is listed as one tornado. 

            Along the tornado path significant damage 

            was observed, include trunks of trees 

            snapped and damage to homes and 

            outbuildings. Based on damage the peak wind 

            of the tornado was estimated to be up to 110 

            mph (EF-1) around Panther Creek Road to the 

            4000-5000 block of County Road 223. One 

            minor injury was reported to the driver of a 

            delivery truck that was flipped on its side.
