After touching down just north of Interstate 555, this tornado quickly intensified and produced EF2-strength damage in commercial and residential areas through the east side of Jonesboro, including The Mall at Turtle Creek. The tornado produced EF2 to low-end EF3 strength damage at Jonesboro Municipal Airport and in industrial and residential areas to the northeast of the airport. A freight train was overturned as well. The tornado weakened and continued to northeast of Brookland where it dissipated. Twenty-two people were injured.
