2.2 SSW Trinity
Representatives from the National Weather Service and Morgan County Emergency Management completed a survey of damage in the city of Trinity, AL.
The survey found evidence of an EF-0 tornado on the Enhanced Fujita scale, with highest winds of 65 mph. The damage was confined mostly to uprooted
trees and snapped limbs. One residence sustained some damage, mainly to sheds and fencing at the back of the property.
An upper level circulation or disturbance known in meteorology as a Mesoscale-Convective-Vorticity center tracked eastward through
the central Tennessee Valley during the morning hours. A moist an unstable airmass enabled rapid low-topped shower development
by late morning as this system tracked through the area. A brief weak tornado was sighted in Trinity. This was in close proximity to the
upper level circulation mentioned above. As this shower entered Madison, AL further to the east, a NWS employee observed thunder
being heard, likely from a cloud to cloud lightning flash. Otherwise, no other cloud to ground lightning was noted, making this tornado
an interesting phenomenon for further study. The University of Alabama-Huntsville ARMOR dual-polarization radar located at the
Huntsville International Airport was in close proximity to this tornado and identified a couple of small low-level circulations within a band
these showers, one in the vicinity of the tornado.
