| Episode Narrative | A warm front moved northward during the day on Tuesday, November 29th, and surface temperatures climbed into the 70s across north Alabama. Low level shear and storm relative helicity increased over west Alabama Tuesday evening and discrete supercells developed over west Alabama. |
| Event Narrative | National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in extreme northern Lee County and determined that the damage was consistent with an EF-1 tornado, with maximum winds estimated near 90 mph. The first damage surveyed was along Lee Road 88 just southwest of US Highway 280 near the town of Waverly. The tornado then traveled northeast and crossed Lee Road 453 where it caused minor structure damage and several trees were either snapped or uprooted. The tornado then crossed US Highway 280 and entered southern Chambers County about one mile west of Highway 147. |
