Survey Summary:
The tornado touched down about 100 yards southwest of Pumpkin
Branch Road in Trousdale County. Damages found as it traveled
northeast into Macon County were primarily snapped and uprooted
trees. Property damage was found as the tornado tracked over Rose
Lane in Macon County with minor roofing and shingle damage along
with a flipped propane tank as well as an outbuilding set on
cinder blocks that was moved about 50 feet. The family that lives
at the residence with the flipped propane tank had to temporarily
evacuate due to a gas leak. The tornado strengthened as it
approached Dixon Creek Road, and this is where the most
significant damage was found. A residence here lost about 60
percent of their roof, six outbuildings on the property were
completely destroyed, and multiple trees were uprooted. The
tornado weakened after crossing Dixon Creek Road, causing minor
roofing damage to barns and other outbuildings before it lifted
at Sycamore Valley Road.
