6 NNE Arley - Nesmith National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in extreme eastern Winston County just southeast of Addison and determined that the damage was consistent with an EF-1 tornado. This tornado touched down about 6 miles north northeast of Arley along County Road 66. A few trees and large branches were snapped off near the initial touch down. The tornado continued northeast and paralleled County Road 66. The tornado continued producing tree damage and at County Road 39, it produced roof damage to a home and outbuilding. Farther down County Road 66, a mobile home was rolled over, a garage was significantly damaged, and a carport was damaged. The tornado continued northeast were it damaged several other structures and took down many trees. The tornado crossed US Highway 278 and entered Cullman County near County Road 45. As it moved towards the small building the tornado uplifted the roof of the building causing the walls collapse and sending debris across a field. Then, as the tornado proceeded northeast it uplifted the metal roof on another single family building. This damage was consistent with EF-1 intensity and was the strongest damage with this portion of the tornado track. More trees were snapped just to the northeast of this position on County Road 1024 near another single family home before it lifted. Start: 34.1550/-87.1572 End: 34.1760/-87.1089
