NWS Meteorologists surveyed damage in far eastern Hale County and extreme northwestern Perry County and determined it was the result of a tornado.
The tornado began along County Road 32 in eastern Hale County where a few pine trees were uprooted. The tornado continued northeastward into Perry County along Little Brush Creek and eventually crossed County Road 29, dissipating a short distance to the northeast. At least one hundred trees were snapped or uprooted along the path, and maximum winds were estimated at 80 mph.
