BUREAU COUNTY, Ill. \u2014 Editor’s Note: The video above was taken by News 8 viewer Jason Ruff, near Wyanet, around 8 p.m. Monday, August 9<\/em>
The National Weather Service in the Quad Cities confirmed three tornadoes touched down in Bureau County on Monday evening, August 9. 
One of the three was rated an EF-1, with winds that reached 105 mph.  The other two strengths remain unknown. 
Observations reported to the NWS show that the three tornadoes were reported between 6 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., two by trained spotters and a third by the public. These were reported near Van Orin, Wyanet and Arlington.  However, the survey showed that the tornado’s touch down was closer to Zearing than Arlington.
