NWS Meteorologists surveyed damage in central Randolph County and determined it was the result of a tornado.
The same supercell that produced 3 previous EF-0 tornadoes in Chilton and Coosa Counties, produced a fourth EF-0 tornado in the Wedowee area. Damage was very spotty/isolated, suggestive of a fairly weak circulation from a pasture area just off County Road 15 and Main Street South, northeast to the Highway 48 and County Road 56 intersection area. A barn/outbuilding was destroyed along with roofing damage done to the corner of one of five chicken houses, with no tree damage nearby. This further points toward a weak circulation that as only able to damage vulnerable structures with wind entry/uplift points. The tornado damage path was 4.38 miles long and was 75 yards wide at its widest point.
