Survey Summary:

The tornado first touched down about a quarter mile south of
Copter Road and just east of Paul Star Drive. At the starting 
point, several boats were pushed into fencing with a few boats 
overturned. The tornado moved northeast across an industrial 
complex, causing significant damage to some metal roofs. Metal 
side paneling and doors were also blown out on a few buildings.
Three minor injuries were reported in this area. The tornado 
quickly weakened as it moved north of Copter Rd and lifted near 
Addison Drive with only some small tree debris noted.

NWS Mobile would like to thank Escambia County Emergency 
Management for their assistance with the survey.
