3.5 ENE Belmont - 0.5 E Pogo A NWS Huntsville and Franklin County survey team determined the minor damage that was observed in far NW Franklin County was due to a weak EF-0 Tornado. NWS Huntsville radar operators noted a tornadic debris signature (TDS) on radar associated with the line of thunderstorms moving towards the MS/AL line around 0600 CDT, which helped prompt the torando warning. Upon evaluation of the damage that led to the TDS on KGWX radar, the survey team noted tree damage across portions of NW Franklin County. Softwood trees were used as the primary damage indicator. A couple small trees were uprooted and several larger trees had large branches snapped, which coincided with the TDS. The path of the damage was generally north of CR 96, beginning at the state line, extending northeast through CR 11, north of Pogo, AL. Start: 34.5400/-88.1400 End: 34.5600/-88.1100
