STORM · APR 06 2025 · TWIGGS COUNTY · REIDS

Tornado reported near REIDS at 1645 (NOAA event 1257561)

Report source: NWS Storm Survey. A broken line of storms exhibiting occasional rotation (known as|a Quasi-Linear Convective System, or QLCS) moved across Bibb and|Twiggs counties and produced a tornado that began near the county|border but progressed into northern Twiggs county. The beginning|of the tornado is noted as being within the Bond Swamp National|Wildlife Refuge at 5:45pm. This is a best estimate based on|radar, as these areas are only accessible by foot or other means.|This may be modified in a future update based on satellite data.|The first indications of damage were along Highway 23 as the|tornado emerged from the swamp directly along the Bibb-Twiggs|County line.
