| Episode Narrative |
A supercell developed over the Everglades and moved into the Broward County Metropolitan Area where it spawned a tornado in Oakland Park. Heavy rainfall also occurred as a squall line moved through the metro area after the tornado event. |
| Event Narrative |
A supercell became organized as it moved out of the Everglades and into the Broward County Metro area. A tornado warning was issued at 754 AM, for areas from Weston to North Lauderdale along the storm���s path, and at 827 AM the storm produced a brief EF-0 tornado. It first touched down in the Royal Palm Isles section of Oakland Park just west of I-95, and traveled east northeast for 2 miles before lifting near the intersection of NE 11th Ave and Floranada. The tornado was approximately 100 yards wide and damage was mostly confined to trailers, cars, trees, and some roofs. |
