An intensifying line of thunderstorms moved eastward from Mississippi into Alabama during the late afternoon hours of June 5. Numerous reports of wind damage were received west of Interstate 65 as the line and two leading cells progressed toward the northeast. Additionally, two EF-1 tornadoes were produced within the line, one that occurred along the MS/AL state line near Bexar in far western Marion County and another that moved out of Fayette County and struck parts of Winfield in southeast Marion County. The intensity of the thunderstorms quickly diminished as the line pushed east of I-65 by sunset.
