The backstory:<\/p>

The first tornado touched down near Hudson around 2:14 p.m. and traveled just over one mile before dissipating around 2:19 p.m. The tornado had estimated peak winds of 85 mph and reached a maximum width of 400 yards, according to the National Weather Service.<\/p>

The NWS says the storm was offshore for several hours before moving inland near Hudson. Damage was first reported along Saltwater Boulevard, where a tree branch snapped onto a power line.<\/p>

Additional damage included partial roof loss and roof damage to homes along Saltwater Boulevard, as well as damage to lanais and carports near Puffin, Heron and Curlew lanes. Tree damage was also reported along Osprey and Gull lanes before the tornado crossed U.S. Highway 19 and weakened.<\/p>

Second tornado forms<\/h2>

About 20 minutes later, a second tornado formed west of Shady Hills around 2:43 p.m. The tornado traveled less than one mile and dissipated around 2:48 p.m. after producing peak winds estimated at 85 mph, according to the NWS.<\/p>

No injuries or fatalities were reported from either tornado, according to the NWS.<\/p>

What’s next:<\/p>

The NWS says the survey findings are preliminary and could change following final review in official storm data reports.<\/p>
