An eighth person has been confirmed dead after violent storms dropped a tornado onto Alabama and Georgia on Thursday.
Tornadoes were reported from Lawrence County in Alabama’s north to Mobile County on its Gulf Coast, according to NOAA, and the main line of those reports crossed from Mississippi through the center of the state, and into Georgia.The rotating thunderstorm or supercell that produced the deadly tornado in Autauga County first formed in Louisiana Thursday morning before tracking 500 miles into eastern Georgia. The storm produced tornadoes along its path and lofted debris as high as 20,000 feet.
As the storm tore across east-central Alabama, the National Weather Service office in Birmingham declared a tornado emergency on multiple occasions — its most dire alert, used only when confirmed large and dangerous tornadoes threaten population centers. On approach to Autauga County, the Weather Service warned that “a strong to intense tornado” probably would rate EF3 on the 0 to 5 scale for intensity.that it would assess the damage and determine ratings for the tornadoes that touched down.
Debris were seen falling out of the sky in Clanton, AL along I-65 earlier this afternoon. They are likely from the tornado that crossed through Wadsworth area, over 13 miles away.
