Ample instability paired with 50 kts of effective shear created a favorable environment for severe weather during the afternoon on June 7th. Convection that did develop came in the form of supercells, two of which produced tornadoes in southeast Missouri.

NWS storm survey concluded an EF-1 tornado touched down in southern Jefferson County. The tornado mostly produced tree damage and minor structural damage. The highest degree of damage occurred at its beginning where it caused two homes to slide off their foundations. The tornado had max winds of 105mph, was 4.9 miles long, and had a maximum width of 300 yards.

From NOAA NCEI's Storm Events Database, the narrative the local forecast office wrote for Storm Data.

NWS St. Louis, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the tornado touched down at Jun 7, 6:53 PM CDT, 12 minutes earlier.

11 more were confirmed in the United States that day.

Ratings are the survey's, read off the damage rather than measured; the rating scale is above. Tornado counts rise through the record as reporting improved, so a year in the 1950s is not comparable with one today except for the strongest tornadoes, which were always noticed.
