Tornado Spotted on Folsom Lake in El Dorado County
By NBC Bay Area Staff
A tornado was spotted on an El Dorado County lake Thursday afternoon, the National Weather Service confirmed.
The tornado was seen on Folsom Lake about 3 p.m. No injuries were reported.
A tornado warning issued for southwest El Dorado County and northwest Amador County expired at 4:30 p.m.
The National Weather Service tweeted a possible tornado touched down in the Modesto and Ceres area. The El Dorado County tornado and Modesto-area storm are separate events, NWS said.
KCRA reports the storm that produced the tornado was moving east at about 20 mph, in the area of El Dorado Hills, Cameron Park, Rescue and Shingle Springs, but it isn't clear where the tornado touched down.
Damage from the El Dorado County tornado was reported along Sandpiper Way in Cameron Park. A resident said there was roof damage, trees down and fences down.
In Modesto, no injuries were reported in connection to the high winds, according to KCRA. A National Weather service storm survey team planned to visit Modesto on Christmas to check out the damage.
