Event narrative (NOAA)
This monster tornado developed just southeast of a dissipating tornado near Macksville and then moved in a northeasterly direction. However during it's life cycle, it turned north briefly, then east briefly and then finally it moved on a steady northeast path. It narrowly missed Hudson to the south but did move across the Quivira National Refuge before moving into Rice county at 9:45 PM CDT. Damage was done to a few farm houses, outbuildings and equipment, trees, power poles and pivot irrigation systems.
