BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - Officials with the National Weather
Service have confirmed tornado touchdowns in north and west
Alabama.

A survey team found evidence of an EF2 tornado from Leighton in
Colbert County to Rogersville in Lauderdale County. A surveillance
camera at an equipment company caught footage of that tornado
tossing at least two cars nearly 40 feet.

A team also investigated damage in Fayette, Walker and Winston
counties and found that an EF1 tornado touched down near the
Bazemore community in Fayette County. That tornado caused more
damage in the Kansas community in Walker County.

The twisters were part of a storm system that raked the northern
part of the state Thursday.
