Tornado summary[edit]
The tornado touched down to the east of Brookside Village in El Franco Lee Park and began traveling northeast.[1][2] The tornado caused minor damage to several homes before striking the Beamer Place apartments at EF2 intensity.[1][2] Preliminary information from the National Weather Service indicated the Beverly Hills Intermediate School and Challenger Intermediate School were struck by the tornado at EF2 intensity, however, no indication was given as to what damage the schools sustained.[2] As the tornado crossed Interstate 45, it caused mid-EF1 damage to several apartment buildings, businesses, homes, and Genoa Elementary School.[2] As the tornado entered Genoa, a part of Houston, it intensified to high-end EF2 intensity.[1][2] The tornado then began to weaken, as it caused high-end EF1 to low-end EF2 damage (100 to 115 mph (161 to 185 km/h)) occurred in Burke Crenshaw Park.[2]
In total, the tornado did not injure anyone, but caused $6.6 million (2023 USD) in damage along it's 23.66 miles (38.08 km) path.[1]
