EF1 Hardin/Wayne/Decatur/Perry Tornado | |
Counties: | Hardin/Wayne/Decatur/Perry |
Time: | 7:56 PM CST |
EF Scale: | EF1 |
Damage Path Length: | 12.7 miles |
Damage Path Width: | 200 yards |
Fatalities: | 0 |
Injuries | 0 |
Damage: STORM DATA (Wayne County): Several homes damaged. The tornado continued into Perry County. STORM DATA (Perry County): Some trees were down. SHAMBURGER (2015): NCDC and Storm Data incorrectly list the narrative from the second long-track tornado that moved across Perry, Lewis, and Hickman Counties as this tornado, which has been corrected in this entry. In addition, radar data and aerial imagery from Google Earth show that this EF1 tornado began in extreme northeast Hardin County then moved northeast, clipping far northwest Wayne County west of Clifton where several homes were damaged. The tornado crossed the Tennessee River into extreme southeast Decatur County where it blew down dozens of trees. Crossing the Tennessee River back into Wayne County, the tornado continued to blow down hundreds of trees as it moved into southern Perry County before lifting around 2 miles northwest of the Flatwoods community. The path length, time, and location of the tornado have been corrected based on radar data and the damage path on Google Earth aerial imagery. Official NCDC and Storm Data records do not include the portions of this tornado track in Hardin and Decatur Counties. |
