Path width:
Path length:
Time: 6:00pm
Noted discrepancies: SPC gives a path width of 20 yards, NCDC says 27 yards, Storm Data says 25 yards. The lat/lon for this tornado at SPC is in Tennessee. The NCDC begin location and end location (8 miles southwest of Albany) also places this tornado in Tennessee, or, depending on the degree of "southwest", in the middle of Dale Hollow Lake. Narrative at NCDC gives no additional location information. Storm Data also plots this tornado "8 miles southwest of Albany" and mere mentions that "a piece of scaffolding and a cement mixer pan were moved 50 yards at Ootens Store." Further research is necessary.
