EF0 tornado in Autauga County, Alabama

National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in southeast Autauga County and determined that it was consistent with an EF0 tornado, with maximum winds near 75 mph. A brief weak tornado touched down over the Prattville Country Club where several tree limbs were blown down. The tornado then crossed Highway 82 where a few trees were knocked down, metal panels were blown off a business, and power poles and lines were downed by fallen trees. The tornado then tracked across a neighborhood where additional trees and limbs were blown down, before dissipating near Deerwood Drive.

A multi-day severe weather event produced all modes of severe weather across Central Alabama. An upper low parked over the Midwest States and an upper ridge over the Florida Peninsula produced a deep layer of moisture and shear over Alabama. A slow moving surface cold front provided the focus for severe storms late Saturday night and continuing through Monday morning.
