Rating: EF1 Estimated Peak Wind: 107 mph Path Length /statute/: 4.19 miles Path Width /maximum/: 500 yards Fatalities: 0 Injuries: 0 Start Date: 05/08/2024 Start Time: 09:34 PM CDT Start Location: 6 E Huntsville / Madison County / AL Start Lat/Lon: 34.7091 / -86.5082 End Date: 05/08/2024 End Time: 09:44 PM CDT End Location: 4 W Gurley / Madison County / AL End Lat/Lon: 34.6995 / -86.4386 Survey Summary: An NWS storm survey determined a tornado touched down in the western end of Dug Hill Estates. The tornado uprooted trees and caused roof damage to a home in the area of initially observed damage. The tornado continued to uproot hardwood trees and snapped a cedar tree in the subdivision before moving eastward along the southern facing slope of the adjacent ridge. No tree damage was observed along the ridge, but high-resolution remote imagery may provide further information when that is available. The tornado became evident again just to the east of the ridge along Dug Hill Rd where hardwood trees were snapped and uprooted. Observation of damage ended along Stags View Dr as the potential tornado at this point moved through heavily wooded areas along the ridge between Raintree Rd and Watson Grande Way. However, damage emerged again as snapped trees were observed along the relatively steep sloped southern portion of Watson Grande Way. This is likely the same tornado as the McMullen Cove tornado, and tornado track information may be amended in a future update. && EF Scale: The Enhanced Fujita Scale classifies tornadoes into the following categories: EF0.....65 to 85 mph EF1.....86 to 110 mph EF2.....111 to 135 mph EF3.....136 to 165 mph EF4.....166 to 200 mph EF5.....>200 mph NOTE: The information in this statement is preliminary and subject to change pending final review of the event and publication in NWS Storm Data. $$ White/Guillet ####018002353#### NOUS44 KHUN 110027 CCA PNSHUN ALZ001>010-016-TNZ076-096-097-111100- Public Information Statement...CORRECTED National Weather Service Huntsville AL 727 PM CDT Fri May 10 2024 ...NWS Damage Survey for 05/08/2024 Tornado Event Update #5... .Brooks Crossroads Tornado... Rating: EF1 Estimated Peak Wind: 107 mph Path Length /statute/: 1.96 miles Path Width /maximum/: 275 yards Fatalities: 0 Injuries: 0 Start Date: 05/09/2024 Start Time: 12:02 AM CDT Start Location: 3 NNW Sylvania / DeKalb County / AL Start Lat/Lon: 34.605 / -85.812 End Date: 05/09/2024 End Time: 12:05 AM CDT End Location: 3 NNE Sylvania / DeKalb County / AL End Lat/Lon: 34.5953 / -85.7799 Survey Summary: A second track was found on the Henagar survey, and this tornado was associated with the second supercell that moved across portions of Jackson and Dekalb Counties toward Brooks Crossroads. Thankfully, this tornado went south of the EF3 track through Henagar, and was generally more weak and brief. This tornado touched down on County Road 122, snapping and uprooting hard and softwood trees just south of the Jackson/Dekalb County border. The tornado continued moving to the east/southeast, snapping and uprooting widespread trees along CR 122, consistent with EF- 1 damage and 107mph winds in Brooks Crossroads. Though there were numerous softwood trees that were damaged, notably, there were several large 4-6 foot in diameter oak trees that were likely 100 years or older that were snapped and uprooted. This led to the slightly higher rating of the tree damage. Any structural damage along this path was from trees that were felled by the tornado, with minimal roof loss noted in this location. && EF Scale: The Enhanced Fujita Scale classifies tornadoes into the following categories: EF0.....65 to 85 mph EF1.....86 to 110 mph EF2.....111 to 135 mph EF3.....136 to 165 mph EF4.....166 to 200 mph EF5.....>200 mph NOTE: The information in this statement is preliminary and subject to change pending final review of the event and publication in NWS Storm Data.
