across two properties. The tornado then continued southeast
across Carlisle Dr and strengthened as it approached Central Blvd
and Mississippi St. south of Howells Ferry Rd. Several large
uprooted hardwood trees were noted within this area with  more
widespread small to large branches snapped throughout several
roads within the community. The tornado then continued east

Survey Summary:
The tornado first touched down just northwest of the intersection
of King Bee Rd and Ten Mile Church Rd. The tornado uprooted trees
at a residence at Spiers Rd and King Bee Rd. The tornado
intensified and likely reached its maximum intensity as it moved
northeast toward Flint Creek Road. Numerous trees were snapped
and uprooted. In addition, the roof was torn off of a residence
and a mobile home, and roof damage was observed to several sheds
and storage buildings. The tornado continued northeast and weakened 
as it crossed John Willis Rd. The tornado briefly intensified again
to EF-1 strength as it crossed Highway 26 where several trees were 
uprooted and snapped. The tornado weakened and lifted as it crossed 
Big Four Rd north of Highway 26.

Additional adjustments to the track are possible in the coming days,
especially to the beginning and ending points, as we conduct additional
analysis. 

We extend our appreciation to the Stone County Emergency Management
Agency for their tremendous assistance with this survey.
