3 NNW Beans Mill - 4 ESE Cusseta National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed minor damage in extreme southern Chambers County and a small part of north central Lee County. The survey determined that it was consistent with a weak EF-0 tornado. The tornado formed at the Wooshin USA plant between Chambers County Road 177 and Interstate 85. Lightweight bin liners were lofted into the air and strewn downstream, and some empty bins were blown over. The tornado moved over the Ajin USA plant where portions of the top of a rooftop air conditioning unit were peeled off, and the unit was shifted slightly, causing very minor damage to the roof. The tornado was also recorded on multiple videos at this time. The tornado continued northeastward, damaging the corner facade of the Shelton Fireworks Store located on the county line between Chambers and Lee Counties. As the tornado crossed Interstate 85 at the Chambers County Road 388 exit as well as the Judge Brown Road, little to no damage was apparent. The tornado greatly weakened at this time. One tree was blown down pointing upstream near the end of Chambers County Road 495. As the tornado approached Chambers County Road 519, one tree was uprooted and a tin overhang attached to a mobile home was completely removed and blown downstream. The tornado quickly dissipated near Chambers County Road 519. The tornado damage path was 2.72 miles long and was 50 yards wide at its widest point. Start: 32.7390/-85.2892 End: 32.7529/-85.2485
