Supercells developed during the late afternoon on October 6th across central and north central Kansas.  The supercells spawned at least 2 tornadoes across Clay and Washington counties.  The tornadoes were on the ground for 5 to 10 miles and at times video and photo evidence suggested that they were strong tornadoes.  However damage surveys did not reveal damage in excess of EF1 due to sparse damage indicators within the paths of the tornado.  In some cases, portions of the paths were inaccessible to vehicles.

This is the initial portion of the tornado track that crossed into Washington County.  Much of this track was inaccessible to vehicles due to mud roads so the track was constructed largely based on radar and reports from chasers and damage reports from EMs.

Tornado in CLAY, KANSAS
From 06-OCT-16 15:36:00 to 06-OCT-16 15:52:00 (CST-6)
Location: CLAY CENTER
Tornado F-scale: EF1
Property damage: 0.00K
Crop damage: 0.00K
Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

This tornado was documented by storm chasers with video and photos which showed a well developed cone shaped tornado that at times appears to have done damage along a nearly 300 yard swath at least briefly after it crossed highway 15 in an open field. The main structures impacted included a farmstead with grain bins and other outbuildings exhibiting high end EF1 damage.  Winds to around 110 mph were estimated at the farmstead.  Given the lack of damage indicators along the path it is possible that this tornado was stronger at some point in its life as it moved through open fields.
