What the National Weather Service wrote

A spotter driving southbound on Interstate 95 near Laurel Island Parkway reported that thunderstorm winds push his vehicle off of the road. The spotter reported a 'potential' tornado. There was not other damage reported in this area. The cost of damage was not reported, but it was estimated for this event to be included in Storm Data.

The wider storm

A severe squall line moved across the area during the afternoon and evening hours, producing mainly wind damage with gusts of 40-60 mph. A strong shortwave moved across the Southeast region which drove a mature squall line toward the local area. Steep mid level lapse rates due to drier air aloft and strong low level winds created high DCAPE values which combined to produce strong wind gusts as the broken squall line moved across the area.

Began near Kingsland (30.8100, -81.6600).
