The EF-4 tornado that struck just south of Kanopolis lake late Saturday afternoon, dropped debris on the east side of Salina, 40 miles away.

An employee of the Salina Municipal Golf Course found a sign that had been along K-4 Highway before the tornado, on the golf course Sunday morning and turned it over to Captain Roger Soldan of the Saline County Sheriffs Office.

The tornado destoyed several farm homes and outbuildings and scoured the pavement  in the area near Kanopolis Lake.
