The Sandy tornado was an F3 tornado that occurred on Thursday, May 13, 2010, near the town of Sandy, Utah. The tornado, which was classified as an EF4 on the Enhanced Fujita scale, moved down the valley for about 33 minutes, dissipating in Draper. Its closeness to Salt Lake City drew attention; the last time a tornado hit the city was in 1999. The tornado caused 3 casualties, 11 injuries and $60 million in damages, making it one of the costliest tornados in the state of Utah.

The tornado first touched down at 5:25 p.m. Central Daylight Time (CDT) east of Granite, and rapidly strengthened into an EF3 tornado before striking Draper at 5:49 p.m, dissipating shortly afterward.
