A potent thunderstorm complex developed in southwestern Tennessee and northeast Mississippi during the mid to late afternoon hours and raced east across northwestern Alabama during the late afternoon to early evening hours. This complex of strong to severe storms produced widespread wind damage and winds of 60 to 70 mph and isolated quarter inch hail. Especially hard hit was Colbert and Lauderdale counties. At least 4,000 people were without power in Florence. This complex weakened significantly as it moved towards and east of the I-65 corridor.  However, another pocket of stronger wind damage was seen in the Berlin area of Cullman county as well.
