National Weather Service Confirms Tornado Touchdown
December 30, 2015
The National Weather Service has confirmed that a tornado touched down Monday in Chumuckla in Santa Rosa County.
The tornado, rated as an EF-1 with winds of 86 to 110 mph, touched down about two miles south of Chumuckla and tracked a mile north-northeast before weakening to an EF-0 tornado and dissipating. The tornado tracked through a wooded area and across an open field with a patch up to 75 yards wide.
Damage was generally confined to uprooted pecan trees, and snapped cedar and pine trees.

I filmed this storm. Very surprising to top a hill and see that.
