  On February 5, a winter storm hit the Ohio Valley, bringing the possibility of severe weather and a few tornadoes on the warm side of the system in Kentucky and Tennessee. A line of severe thunderstorms impacted the region later that night and continued into the early morning hours of February 6. The storms produced several tornadoes, a couple of which were strong. Three tornadoes occurred in Kentucky, including an EF1 tornado near Island City in Owsley County. The tornado snapped or uprooted trees, destroyed a small shed-like residence, damaged two mobile homes, and was only the third tornado to be confirmed in the county since reliable records began in 1950. Two other EF1 tornadoes passed near Magnolia and Dango, downing trees, inflicting minor to moderate damage to homes, and damaging or destroying multiple barns and outbuildings. In Tennessee, a high-end EF2 tornado snapped or uprooted countless trees in wooded areas and completely destroyed two mobile homes near the community of Deer Lodge, killing two people in one of them and injuring two others. Another EF2 tornado touched down near Center Grove, causing major tree damage and destroying multiple barns. Two EF1 tornadoes that touched down near Algood and Crawford downed many trees, inflicted minor to moderate damage to various structures, and injured one person each. The final tornado of the event caused high-end EF1 damage near Thorn Hill, destroying a barn, overturning a tanker trailer, and inflicting window and siding damage to a church. A total of eight tornadoes were confirmed, resulting in two fatalities and four injuries.
