Greensburg, Kansas was not the only place hit by the tornadoes that night. Another area was Macksville, Kansas, about 40 miles to the northeast of Greensburg. Though the tornado passed to the east of the town, there are reports that at least two homes were destroyed. Here are some pictures from US Highway 50, just east of Macksville, where the tornado crossed the road shortly after destroying Greensburg and just missing downtown Macksville:
South side of US50, just east of Macksville, where the tornado crossed the road shortly after destroying Greensburg, KS and just missed Macksville, KS on the Night of May 4th, 2007
North side of US50, a little further east. These trees were snapped like toothpicks.
Looking ESE along US50. Not the object circled in red. It is a piece of what looks like a storage silo. There are pieces of corrugated steel--silo pieces?--embedded in the north-side fence for about the next half-mile.
