North of Cullman damage was reported at Terri Pines Country Club and in the town of Vinemont. At Terri Pines several tall trees were damaged, either uprooted or snapped off at mid-trunk. One witness at the golf course reportedly saw a funnel; another witness reported a sudden end to a downpour, the sky turning black, then a sudden return of the downpour with the sky becoming lighter. From the golf course, the storm moved northeast. The tornado appeared to have lifted or weakened as it crossed I-65 with only minimal debris from the trees along the road. The tornado continued northeasterly to Vinemont just west of US 31 and south of CR 1292. The tornado reached F1 strength destroying 2 chicken barns and severely damaging a third, scattering debris at least a mile away. A mobile home downhill from the chicken barns had parts of it's roof torn off, and there were several holes in the side of the mobile home caused by debris projectiles. The final damage along the track was to a frame garage which was shifted off it's slab in a twisting motion causing it to collapse on itself. Witnesses at this location reported hearing a load roaring noise similar to a jet aircraft. At it's widest point, the tornado was approximately 200 yards wide. The total length of the path was about 2.1 miles. Beg: 33 13.049/86 53.578 End: 34 14.568/86 52.260
