Episode Narrative An upper low moving across Oklahoma and Arkansas aided in the development of several rounds of thunderstorms beginning early in the morning of the 28th and continuing into the 29th. Several tornadoes were reported, and heavy rain also produced flash flooding.
Event Narrative A National Weather Service storm survey confirmed an EF-1 tornado moved from just west of Edgard to east of Garyville. In the Edgard area, a large door at a firehouse was damaged, along with several trees and power poles. In the east bank areas, the tornado passed across an oil refinery causing some damage. Maximum winds were estimated at 105 mph.
