Tornado F-scale: EF0
Property damage: 100.00K
Crop damage: 0.00K
Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

A small tornado developed on the leading edge of squall line moving over the Lake Travis area.  Many trees were blown down and damaged.  A security cam video shows a developing circulation near Noack Hill at a residence.  Tree damage can be seen along R O Drive toward Bee Creek. A couple of videos from citizens show a waterspout crossing Lake Travis near Bee Creek, moving east toward Point Venture.   Several marinas were damaged as the small tornado crossed the lake.  It is assumed the tornado came ashore near the park area of Point Venture on Whispering Hollow Drive where there is tree damage.  At this point, concrete evidence of a tornado and tornado damage is lost so the path of the EF0 tornado is ended on the far west side of Point Venture.  Estimated peak winds are 80 mph with a maximum width of 100 yards.  The path length is estimated to be at 3 miles.  Other house and roof damage was found on the south side of Point Venture but there was not enough evidence to call it tornado damage.
