A brief tornado spun up in a rural area of southwest Baldwin County and tracked across the Jones County line before lifting. A Tornado Debris Signature (TDS) was seen from the KJGX 88-D radar at approximately 10:31 UTC on August 17, 2021. Multiple trees were snapped along Union Hill Church Road near Kitchens Road with additional reports of trees down along County Line Road near Piney Woods Drive. The TDS likely resulted from the tornado affecting a heavily wooded area between Union Hill Church Road and County Line Road, along the Baldwin/Jones county line. Estimate maximum winds were around 75 mph in this area.
