An isolated severe thunderstorm during the afternoon of the 22nd produced a tornado on the northwest shore of Lake Iowa Park, 2 miles northwest of Iowa Park in Wichita County. The tornado was well-formed as it was photographed by a storm chaser crossing the north side of the lake, dissipating near Johnson Road. No damage was observed or reported, and thus the tornado was rated F0.
