Tornado in MOBILE, ALABAMA
From 16-JUN-23 07:00:00 to 16-JUN-23 07:07:00 (CST-6)
Location: SALCO
Tornado F-scale: EF1
Crop damage: 0.00K
Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

An unusual anticyclonic tornado began just west of the Middle River associated with the anticyclonic bookend vortex of a powerful Mesoscale Convective System moving across the area. The tornado likely began just west of the Mobile River based on a radar debris signature and continued to the southwest of Stockton near the Tensaw River. After completion of the storm survey, it was determined the tornado continued as an EF1 cutting across the Tensaw river where a narrow path of trees snapped exists. The tornado turned to the east moving across Live Oak Road snapping and uprooting multiple pines and oaks. Past this, a lack of convergent damage suggests the tornado likely lifted somewhere on Live Oak Road prior to reaching State Highway 225. Additional intense straight line wind damage was surveyed near the path associated with the bookends RFD just to the north where straight line wind speed estimates were upwards of 90mph. The tornado track and intensity has been updated on 6/28/2023 to reflect hi-resolution satellite imagery from Digital Globe Worldview. Winds are estimated upwards of 100mph peaking along the Bottle Creek where many trees were uprooted with a few snaps.
