Episode Narrative A powerful spring storm system brought an outbreak of tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail to Central Alabama.
Event Narrative The tornado that touched down near the Russell-Lee County line tracked northeastward across southern Lee County. It strengthened as it approached Lake Oliver on the Chattahoochee River. The greatest damage was from Summerville Road into the River Oak and Rock Island areas. Numerous pine trees were snapped off and some hardwoods were uprooted. At least 20 residential properties reported tree damage. At least 25 homes suffered shingle, window or minor structural damage. Some of the fallen trees landed on homes and produced moderate damage. The tornado then continued eastward into Muscogee County, Georgia.
