(Radio Iowa) – A small tornado has been confirmed with the storm that hit Cedar Rapids Wednesday. According to the National Weather Service, one person suffered minor injuries when the tornado briefly hit Summit View Village, a mobile home park on the city’s southwest side around 9:15 p-m. Firefighters reported damage to at least two trailer homes, one of which had the roof torn off.
Officials from the National Weather Service determined that the E-F-zero tornado briefly touched down in Cedar Rapids. It was on the ground for about one-half mile before dissipating above a corn field. The survey team estimated maximum winds were around 85 miles-an-hour.
An investigation into what caused damage to homes in Cedar Rapids Wednesday night is underway, and officials think it may have been a tornado. KCRG TV reports the damage occurred at around 8:30-p.m., and resulted in injuries to a child. The weather phenomenon affected the Summit View Mobile Home Park. Residents say the roof of one mobile home was partially torn off, and windows in another home were blown out.
According to KGAN TV, one resident called 911 to report that their daughter had been cut by flying glass.
