The National Weather Service says it’s confirmed two more Christmas Day tornadoes in south-central Nebraska.
The service said in a news release Friday that additional survey reports of damage showed an EF-0 tornado with winds estimated at 75 mph struck 7 miles southeast of Minden at 12:17 p.m. and lifted two minutes later. The third twister struck a point 4 miles west-northwest of Gibbon at 12:24 p.m. and lifted after four minutes.
The service had already reported a twister with 100 mph winds touched down about 3 miles south of Funk and lifted three minutes later.
The three caused minor damage but no injuries.
The service says the tornadoes are the latest confirmed Nebraska occurrences in a calendar year since 1950 and the first December tornado since Dec. 13, 1975.
