Episode Narrative A strong short wave and associated surface low swept through the southern and eastern U.S. and combined with moderate instability and strong shear resulted in widespread severe weather, including numerous tornadoes, across north and central Georgia from late morning through the afternoon.
Event Narrative A National Weather Service survey team found that an EF1 tornado with maximum wind speeds of 100 MPH and a maximum path width of 300 yards occurred between Edgehill and Davisboro across the Washington and Jefferson county line. The tornado touched down around the intersection of South Sparta Davisboro Road and Jordan Mill Pond Road where damage occurred to the metal roof of a large barn and another barn was demolished along with numerous snapped and uprooted trees. As the tornado moved east it weakened to an EF0 after crossing Tree Nursery Road and moving into Jefferson County. No injuries were reported. [04/03/17: Tornado #27, County #1/2, EF-1, Washington, Jefferson, 2017:059].
