| Episode Narrative | A very warm and unstable airmass developed ahead of an approaching strong low pressure system. Strong vertical wind shear in combination with the instability caused storms to become severe and produce several reports of damaging winds along with one tornado. |
| Event Narrative | A swath of damaging straight line winds impacted the Poarch, AL area on 3/18/22 at 9:04 AM CDT. A narrow swath of intense wind gusts estimated at 90 to 100mph affected a mobile home park where several mobile homes were rolled/destroyed. The surrounding area sustained severe wind gusts to the southeast where several trees were snapped/uprooted and a farm and nearby residences sustained roof damage to several buildings. The survey team found no evidence of convergence with all damage laid out in a southwest to northeast swath suggesting straight line wind damage. |
