| 18:31Z | EF0 | KTLH | FL | Jefferson | Drifton | A brief tornado touched down along I-10 just west of U.S. Highway 319 damaging trees along either side of the interstate. The tornado appears to have been short-lived with a survey team finding no additional damage on surrounding roads. A tornadic debris signature was briefly evident on KTLH radar. The tornado was rated EF0 with peak winds estimated at 80 mph. |
| 19:03Z | EF1 | KTLH | GA | Thomas | Everett | An EF1 tornado with peak winds estimated at 100 mph briefly touched down in southeastern Thomas County near the intersection of Scott Rd and Scott Plantation Road immediately adjacent to Seminole Plantation. The tornado crossed Scott Road and moved into Seminole Plantation where there were numerous large pine trees uprooted or snapped near the entrance to the plantation. Within the plantation, one structure was damaged from an uprooted tree landing on a portion of the building. Several other cottages suffered some shingle loss, with one structure losing the bottom portion of the wood frame around the building and another having minor chimney damage. A couple of open air barns had damage, with one having a wall collapse and another being slightly shifted off its foundation. Beyond the structures, numerous large pine trees were uprooted or snapped. When the tornado was near peak intensity several large pine trees were snapped in close proximity with several very large pine trees uprooted. Tree damage was noted beyond reachable distance due to the downed trees blocking the path further into the woods. From surveying on the northwest side of the track along an accessible road, no additional damage was noted, and the tornado is presumed to have lifted before reaching B Green Road and Parramore Fish Pond Road. The National Weather Service in Tallahassee would like to thank the Thomas County Emergency Management Agency for their support in this survey. |
| 20:05Z | EF2 | KVAX | GA | Lowndes | Dasher | The tornado initially touched down along Old Lake Park Road south of Hickory Grove Road, causing damage to trees and powerline, with minor damage noted to a manufactured home. The tornado continued northward, crossing Hickory Grove Road, and causing minor damage to a home at the intersection of Ezelle Road. An unoccupied double-wide manufactured home was destroyed on Ezelle Road, with damage supportive of an EF-2 rating. As the tornado continued north, it impacted another double-wide manufactured home along Johnson Road, destroying the home with damage also supportive of and EF-2 rating. The damage at these two locations support the maximum rating of the tornado of EF-2 with an approximate maximum wind speed of 120 mph. The tornado continued to travel north, causing sporadic damage to trees, homes and outbuildings, in the EF-0 to EF-1 range. A destroyed farm outbuilding along with roof damage to a single family home was noted along Davis Lane. A metal structure was severely damaged along US Highway 84. The tornado appears to have dissipated in a pecan orchard north of Highway 84. Additional video on social media helped determine a rough estimate on the end point. Special thanks to Lowndes County Emergency Management for assistance with this survey. |
| 21:11Z | EF1 | KJAX | FL | Duval | (nzc)nas Cecil Fld | A tornado touched down along Sal Taylor Creek to the southwest of|Cecil Field and moved northward across Peacock Ridge Drive,|snapping and uprooting trees that fell and damaged approximately|12 homes, with farm houses and fences also damaged along the path|of about one mile in length, with a maximum path width estimated|around 200 yards. The maximum estimated intensity was 100 miles|per hour, based on the partial loss of a roof on a manufactured|home, in addition to several large trees and large branches being|snapped. The tornado continued northward across Cochise Drive and|then lifted at approximately 4:15 PM just east of Nathan Hale|Road in the Sal Taylor Creek Preserve. Several videos and photos|of this tornado were posted on social media. |
| 21:13Z | EF1 | KJAX | FL | Clay | Kingsley | A tornado touched down in the northwestern portions of Clay|County, or within the Camp Blanding Wildlife Management Area|just to the northwest of Kingsley Lake, on Sunday afternoon. This|tornado was documented by pictures and video as it crossed County|Road 225 that were posted on social media. A National Weather|Service survey team determined that the peak wind was around 90|mph, resulting in snapped and uprooted pine trees along its|approximate one mile path. This tornado`s path length may have|been longer based on available video evidence, but the survey team|was unable to locate any damage beyond the indicated path length|in the heavily wooded Camp Blanding Wildlife Management Area.|Estimated path width was around 100 yards. |
| 22:05Z | EF0 | KJAX | FL | Duval | (nzc)nas Cecil Fld | A tornado touched down adjacent to the Immanuel Baptist Church off|Sarroca Lane, or just southwest of the intersection of Normandy|Boulevard and Cecil Commerce Center Parkway, around 5:05 PM. This|small tornado, with an estimated maximum width of 25 yards, was|captured on video as it flipped a garbage dumpster on the church|property. This tornado likely lifted before crossing Normandy|Boulevard, with the parent supercell thunderstorm moving|northeastward, producing another likely touchdown near the|intersection of Brian Lakes Drive and Justin Oaks Drive North,|where the tornado was again captured on video as it damaged fences|and trees adjacent to homes in the area. This damage represents|am estimated peak wind of around 85 mph, and the non-continuous|damage path of this tornado was around 1.38 miles. The tornado|lifted before reaching Chaffee Trail Elementary School around 5:07|PM. |
