A brief tornado touched down late in the evening on April 9th
near Bush Bottom Road. The tornado initially did scattered damage
to branches in open farmland but quickly strengthened to its
maximum intensity, estimated at EF-1 with 100 mph maximum winds,
as it destroyed two outbuildings near Bush Bottom Road. The
tornado continued generally east where it crossed the Natchez
Trace and and Bill Downing Road. Damage in these areas was mostly
tree and vegetation but some generally minor damage was noted to
roofs in the area. Falling trees contributed to additional damage
including downing power lines and fencing. A few homes were more
