Episode Narrative A line of showers and thunderstorms, along and ahead of a cold front, moved east across the region in the late afternoon and evening of 10/31/2019. Due to sufficient atmospheric instability and shear, some of the thunderstorms were severe and contained a few embedded tornadoes.
Event Narrative The tornado once again touched down near Clinton Sease Farms along Olde Farm Rd. This is the location of the most widespread tree damage and strongest winds. The tornado continued NE and uprooted and snapped nearly two dozen trees between Olde Farm Rd and Rabbit Rd. A small wood building at the farm lost a good portion of its metal roof. The tornado ended just as it crossed Rabbit Rd.
