What the National Weather Service wrote
A brief tornado occurred in the Exmoor community along County Road 6, between County Road 7 and Lewis Road. The tornado began along the back tree line of a property then moved northeast where it shifted a camper northward a few feet off of its cinder block supports. A manufactured home suffered damage to its porch and awning. Some trees were snapped and uprooted as the tornado crossed County Road 6 before dissipating as it downed trees across the road. Maximum winds were estimated at 65 mph.
The wider storm
Numerous showers and thunderstorms occurred across Central Alabama during the late morning to early afternoon of May 22. Enough shear and instability were present to promote the development of small, low-topped supercells within a tropical environment. A few of these cells produced brief rotation, and three brief tornadoes occurred in Marengo and Tuscaloosa counties.
Began near Exmoor (32.0537, -87.8623).
