Maximum winds were estimated to be around 135 mph. The tornado first touched down in southwestern Pickens County south of AL Hwy 32 and west of County Road 87. From there, it continued on a northeastward path across a large part of Pickens County. The tornado was caught live on Camera by local media just after it crossed the intersection of Hwy 32 and County Road 1, just west of Cochrane. It continued northeast to the Cochrane Campground on the Tombigbee River, where scores of trees were snapped, causing minor damage to one of the buildings on the campground. The tornado first reached EF-2 magnitude as it crossed private wooded land just south of County Road 78 snapping and uprooting hundreds of trees. As the tornado crossed Huff-Barnett Road, it mowed down a wide swath of trees, with a distinct classic convergence pattern of tree fall just east of Beaver Creek. The tornado continued northeastward across Al Hwy 14 causing damage to the federal prison, and then moved on to the Martin Luther King Road/Sapp community northwest of Aliceville. Here, the tornado reached its highest rated damage. Many of the homes in this portion of the Sapp community received some extent of damage, and several were destroyed. From there, the weakening tornado continued northeastward roughly parallel to AL Hwy 17 over open and forested rural Pickens County until it passed just west of Carrollton. The tornado reintensified and broadened somewhat, with a more significant tree-fall causing damage to a few homes on the west side of Carrollton. The tornado continued on the same northeastward path gradually weakening over rural areas before lifting near Herbert Windle Road southwest of Reform. Fayette County 7 W Newtonville 02 1736CST 3 ESE Belk 1745CST 6.12 500 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Tornado (EF1) National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in Fayette County and have determined that the damage was consistent with an EF-1 tornado. Winds were estimated to be around 90 mph. The tornado touched down along Ashcraft Corner Cutoff and tracked northeast almost paralleling Alabama Highway 159 between County Roads 1 and 2. It then continued northeast along Owens Road before lifting along County Road 4. The damage consisted mainly of snapped and uprooted trees. The only structural damage found along the path was minor shingle and porch damage to one residence at the intersection of Alabama Highway 159 and Summers Drive. Lamar County 4 S Beaverton 02 2010CST 2016CST 4.13 400 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Tornado (EF1) National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in northern Lamar County and have determined that the damage was consistent with an EF-1 tornado. Winds were estimated to be around 105 mph. The tornado touched down along Christain Road near Taylor Springs Road. It moved north-northeast and caused major roof damage to one residence at the intersection of Pond Road and Garrison Road. From there, the tornado turned more to the northeast snapping and uprooting trees as it crossed County Road 49, Piney Grove Road, Pinewood Circle, and Turkey Branch Road. One residence on Pinewood Circle sustained minor shingle damage. The tornado continued northeast causing only tree damage until it lifted along Sorghum Hollow Road. Pickens County 3 W Melrose 02 2302CST 2308CST 4.18 1400 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Tornado (EF0) National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in Pickens County and have determined that the damage was consistent with an EF-0 tornado. Winds were estimated to be around 85 mph. The tornado touched down between Keasler Road and Heritage Road just north of the railroad tracks. It moved northeast crossing County Road 30, County Road 35, U.S. Highway 82, and Price Road Causing only tree damage. The tornado lifted before reaching County Road 45. Lamar County 1 WSW Crews 02 2330CST 03 0030CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Flash Flood The Fire Department reported up to one foot of water flowing across Waterworks Road near the intersection of Highway 278. 3 Time Path Path Number of Estimated February 2016 Local/ Length Width Persons Damage Location Date Standard (Miles) (Yards) Killed Injured Property Crops Character of Storm ALABAMA, Central Greene County 2 N Miller 02 2348CST 2350CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Thunderstorm Wind (60EG) Approximately 20 to 30 trees uprooted by high winds. Note: The estimated wind gust of 60 knots is equivalent to 69 mph. Hale County 1 NW Akron 03 0010CST 0030CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Thunderstorm Wind (55EG) One single family residence and several outbuildings damaged in the town of Akron. Numerous trees uprooted across Hale County. Note: The estimated wind gust of 55 knots is equivalent to 63 mph. Etowah County 1 NW Ord 03 0220CST 0222CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Thunderstorm Wind (50EG) Four homes on Riverside Drive in the city of Gadsden received minor damage, including loss of shingles and siding blown off. Power lines downed in the same area. Note: The estimated wind gust of 50 knots is equivalent to 58 mph. Perry County 2 SSE Radford 03 0330CST 3 SSW Levert 0530CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Flash Flood Several roads flooded and impassable across eastern Perry County. Roads flooded include County Road 30, County Road 64, and County Road 49. A strong upper level system developed over the Central Plains and a surface low moved from the Mid Mississippi Valley into the Great Lakes. Although this was well removed from Central Alabama, the system was strong enough that winds at the surface and aloft increased significantly. This produced high wind shear. The combination of the high precipitable water values and unseasonably warm temperatures produced very unstable conditions across central Alabama. A cold front approached the region late Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday evening, a few supercell thunderstorms developed. Eventually, the storms became organized into a line and produced heavy rainfall and flash flooding. Montgomery County 3 SSW Mathews 15 1600CST 1605CST 2.46 75 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Tornado (EF0) National Weather Service meteorologists surveyed damage in northeastern Montgomery County and determined that the damage was consistent with an EF-0 tornado. Winds were estimated to be around 80 mph. The tornado first touched down just south of Lawson Road, where it toppled 2 trees. It then proceeded northeast and paralleled Lawson Road. As the tornado approached Flowers Road, additional damage occurred to a metal building, where a portion of the roof and side panels were removed. Here, the tornado was at its strongest point with winds estimated at 80 mph. Roughly 300 yards past Flowers Road, additional 80 mph winds associated with the tornado collapsed another outbuilding. The tornado continued northeast, and additional large limbs were down until the tornado lifted before reaching Dani Lane. Pike County Goshen 15 1759CST 1802CST 0 0 0.00K 0.00K Thunderstorm Wind (65EG) Large trees down near Goshen High School.

Goodison and P.Y.T. Louie (both Canada) and D. Yang (China) WMO/TD - No. 872 1998 NOTE The designations employed and the presentation of material in this publication do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the Secretariat of the World Meteorological Organization concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area, or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries. This report has been produced without editorial revision by the WMO Secretariat. It is not an official WMO publication and its distribution in this form does not imply endorsement by the Organization of the ideas expressed. FOREWORD The WMO Solid Precipitation Measurement Intercomparison was started in the northern hemisphere winter of 1986/87. The field work was carried out in 13 Member countries for seven years. The Intercomparison was the result of Recommendation 17 of the ninth session of the Commission for Instruments and Methods of Observation (CIMO-IX). As in previous WMO intercomparisons of rain gauges, the main objective of this test was to assess national methods of measuring solid precipitation against methods whose accuracy and reliability were known. It included past and current procedures, automated systems and new methods of observation. The experiment was designed to determine especially wind related errors, and wetting and evaporative losses in national methods of measuring solid precipitation.

  • Backcountry Discovery Trail

    Backcountry Discovery Trail

    Have you ever wanted to get into the backcountry Backcountry of a National Forest? Have you wondered if you have Discovery Trail what it takes? Rest assured: exploring the backcountry doesn’t necessarily require an ATV or a dirt bike. You can do it in a high clearance vehicle or a 4WD sport utility vehicle. This guide gives directions for the route from point to point, gives tips on what to bring and how to prepare, provides background information on history and general topics, and directs travelers to points of interest along the way. This 150-mile-long discovery trail is a perfect place to begin your explorations of the Plumas National Forest! Plumas National Forest Plumas National Forest Backcountry Discovery Trail The Plumas Backcountry Discovery Trail is published by the USDA Forest Service, in cooperation with the California State Parks OHV Division. Printed in the USA 2013 ISBN: Welcome to the Plumas Backcountry Discovery Trail The Plumas Backcountry Discovery Trail (BDT) invites exploration of the remote areas of the Plumas National Forest. You can expect rough road conditions on gravel and dirt roads and a slow pace of travel, maybe only 30-50 miles a day. Be prepared for downed trees or rocks on the road, rough and rocky surfaces, and brush encroaching on the road- way. Much of the route is under snow in the winter and early spring. There are no restaurants, grocery stores, or gas stations along the main route and cell phone coverage is intermittent. The non-paved roads are currently maintained for travel by sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and high-clearance vehicles.
