1 WSW - 1 ENE Springfield The tornado is estimated to have touched down near London Road in Northern Clarke County, then proceeded to move northeast. Sporadic trees were snapped and uprooted along the first part of the path. There was minor damage to a well-built home and an overhang on a nearby shed was blown over. A ski boat housed by the shed was pushed by the wind downhill as well. A trailer in a nearby field was also blown downhill into the woods. Before the tornado crossed Sandflat Road, ten to twelve tall, hardwood oak trees were uprooted in a field behind a nearby home. The tornado then moved across some heavily-wooded areas and cow pastures as it approached Kelley Road. Several large, hardwood trees were snapped and uprooted at this point. Furthermore, a large shed was overturned on its roof. The tornado continued to the northeast, lifting just northeast of Highway 43. Start: 31.8318/-87.7742 End: 31.8400/-87.7474
