Phil campbell EF5 survey V0.7 (Google earth file Download.) + showing areas where nws made mistakes in there version. : meteorology
2 min read
Don’t expect V0.8 , V0.9 , V1.0 to come soon.
0.6 = General fix
0.7 = Center line fix , downburst fix , Other tornadoes taking the same path fix.
0.8 = NWS damage assist toolkit damage point fix position.
0.9 = Aerial photo overlay to fix and correct the damage.
1.0 = Looking at the ef0 zone’s to see if there are damage , and to connect the disconnected spots.
Hackleburg + one of the 2 strongest damage zones i could find for now.
You can see as of now its separated into 3 parts , at the V1.0 we will find out if this was the same tornado or not (nws says it is)

Colored in = NWS
My version = Outline
This is to show mostly the flaw of nws survey.
NWS forgot about the EF4 , EF3 , EF2 spots here for some reason.
NWS part was severely incorrect area 1
Area of the strongest velocity winds , NWS did a ok job here compared to what you see above.
NWS part was severely incorrect area 2
NWS part was severely incorrect area 3
Zoom in of the photo above , NWS has the tornado core at the edge of the tornado.
NWS part was severely incorrect area 4
NWS part was severely incorrect area 5
This is not the end track but nws DAT file shows it stops there , however its stated to go in the next state , i was able to find a bit of damage as you can see , but for now i cant find more after.
