13 Tornadoes Confirmed in the South; Damage Reported in Alabama, Georgia and Florida
The National Weather Service said a total of 13 tornadoes hit Alabama, Georgia and Florida Wednesday night and early Thursday, including two that were rated EF2.
A damaging tornado tore through parts of southwest Georgia early Thursday morning, damaging and destroying trailers while injuring at least six people. Utilizing dual-polarization radar, NWS Tallahassee, which also oversees some parts of southern Georgia, confirmed a tornado touched down at 2:42 a.m. EDT just 13 minutes before striking a trailer park north of Edison, Georgia, about 35 miles west of Albany in southwest Georgia.
An NWS storm survey Thursday found storm damage consistent with an EF2 tornado, with estimated peak wind speeds up to 130 mph, along a 15.9-mile long path.
Calhoun County emergency management reported as many as four minor injuries with two trailers overturned north of Edison.
Five minutes later, a trailer was completely destroyed in Dickey, Georgia, with two injuries requiring immediate medical attention. Two other tornadoes were confirmed in Georgia, both rated EF0, in Webster and Stewart counties, according to NWS storm surveys.
NWS Tallahassee issued its first tornado warning for Calhoun County, including the towns of Edison and Dickey, 21 minutes before the tornado struck the trailer park just north of Edison and 26 minutes before it destroyed a trailer in Dickey.
