Episode Narrative A line of thunderstorms ahead of a strong cold front swept through north and central Georgia during the morning into the early afternoon. Despite only marginal instability, strong low and mid-level shear resulted in isolated reports of thunderstorm wind damage and a few brief tornadoes.
Event Narrative A National Weather Service survey team found that an EF0 tornado with maximum wind speeds of 85 MPH and a maximum path width of 250 yards touched down on the west side of Bremen north of Tallapoosa Street between Ayers Street and Sewell Road. The tornado then moved northeast paralleling Tallapoosa Street. On Kaiser Street, multiple large trees were snapped near their base or uprooted, including one that fell onto a duplex causing substantial damage to the roof, walls, a carport and two nearby vehicles. The tornado continued northeast, snapping and uprooting several more trees between Church Street and Gordon Street. The tornado dissipated around the intersection of Pine Street and the Bryan Street Bypass. [02/07/18: Tornado #1, County #1/1, EF-0, Haralson, 2018:001].
