Survey Summary:

The Garrett Bridge tornado began north of Hwy 54 along Hwy 54E.
The tornado tracked towards the northeast where it damaged some
chicken houses along Hwy 54E. The tornado then proceeded east-
northeast along Hwy 54E causing roof damage to two homes. The
tornado then tracked towards the northeast uprooting and snapping
several trees before crossing Grangeway Road. Due to the lack of
damage in this area, the tornado appears to have lifted near a
barn just north of Grangeway Road.
