Tornado touches down near Reinbeck

   A tornado touched down just west of Reinbeck early Sunday evening and narrowly missed town. Many Reinbeck residents watched the funnel cloud pass just south of town after touching down briefly on U Avenue (County Highway T-55) and damaging three buildings, one seriously.

   There were no apparent injuries in the storms, though one apparently uninjured individual was transferred from one of the damaged homes to a relative's home by ambulance.

   More information about the storm will be printed in Thursday's Grundy Register.
