Fatalities: 0
Injuries: 0
Start Date: 04/06/2025
Start Time: 08:59 AM CDT
Start Location: 1 NNE Pine Hill / Wilcox County / AL
Start Lat/Lon: 31.992 / -87.5792
End Date: 04/06/2025
End Time: 09:04 AM CDT
End Location: 2 S Kimbrough / Wilcox County / AL
End Lat/Lon: 32.003 / -87.5633
Survey Summary:
The tornado began in the woods behind the intersection of Old
Selma Rd and Highway 5 where it resulted in snaps of large
hardwood limbs and some uprooted small trees. An unattached
awning to a gas station was lofted and tossed about 50 yards into
a tree. This awning was closer to a carport and thus damage was
deemed on lower bound. The tornado continued across highway
5 resulting in roof damage to a restaurant and continued tree
damage with uprooted and some snapped hardwood trees. The tornado
continued across highway 10, producing tree damage. The most
significant damage occurred as the tornado crossed Sandpit Rd.
Numerous uprooted and snapped large hardwood and softwood trees
occurred at this location. Some patches were rather significant
snapping; however, just not enough to warrant a higher rating. A
single wide manufactured home was rolled at this location;
however, the home was not tied down and sitting on the side of
the hill. As a result a lower bound estimate was given for this
damage. The tornado likely continued northeast into the woods
where survey crews were unable to reach.
