| Episode Narrative | Multiple rounds of strong to severe storms affected the region on April 24th. Tornadoes, large hail (some to 2 inches in diameter), and widespread damaging winds occurred. The multiple rounds also caused rainfall amounts in excess of 6 inches in some locations across the tri-state region, resulting in flash flooding. |
| Event Narrative | The tornado touched down near Howard Landing Road in western Early County. There was minor damage to a mobile home near Jack Wright Road. An outbuilding and camper were destroyed at this location. Extensive tree damage was observed at a home along Highway 39. Roof damage was also noted at this location. The tornado continued eastward, causing sporadic tree damage before dissipating at N. Main Street in Blakely. The damage rating of EF1 with max winds estimated at 95 mph was based on the extensive tree damage and minor damage to homes. |
