Additional tornado discovered via Planet Satellite Imagery from the same supercell that spawned several other tornadoes along its track across the CWA on 1/12/2023. This tornado began near Turkey Creek Road carving a narrow path of intermittent tree damage eastward across Johnson Road and Oakey Streak Road. The tornado likely lifted just after this point where visible damage on satellite imagery becomes indiscernible. This tornado was given an EF-U rating given there was no available high-resolution imagery to reveal what types of DI's could be used. If high resolution imagery becomes available, we may be able to assess this tornado's intensity.
A very warm and moist airmass developed ahead of an approaching strong cold front. Showers and thunderstorms developed ahead of the front and moved across the area. The storms produced three tornadoes along with a swath of wind damage stretching from the I-65 corridor in Conecuh County o far southeastern Crenshaw County.
