Event narrative (NOAA)
This strong, deadly tornado began near Summerland where a few trees were uprooted along highway 28. The tornado progressed northeastward across mostly rural portions of Jones County, crossing into Jasper County near County Road 7 where structural damage began to be observed, primarily shingles and small portions of roofing removed. The tornado was estimated to be of EF-1 intensity at this time. Fluctuating between EF-0 and EF-1 intensities, the tornado carried northeastward crossing County Road 79 producing additional tree damage. After taking an abrupt leftward jog and impacting County Road 10 where trees were downed and a home had shingle/light roofing impacts, the tornado resumed a northeast trek and intensified quickly to EF-2 strength as it impacted a community southwest of Stringer.
