A weak tornado first touched down just east of US 43 about 3.6 miles north-northeast of Dixons Mills and traveled north-northeast across mostly rural, wooded areas. The tornado path ended just north of Octagon near the intersection of CR 33 and CR47. Numerous trees were downed along the path. Two parallel power lines owned by Alabama Power Company were damaged near the spot where the power lines crossed CR 30. Several outbuidlings (barns and storage sheds) were destroyed. One brick home in the path of the tornado sustained shingle damage. Beginning: 32 06.556/87 46.522 End: 32 12.650/87 45.350
