Episode Narrative | A slow moving cold front produced a squall line that moved through southeast Louisiana during the afternoon hours of the 31st. Two tornadoes occurred and several reports of wind damage were reported with the storms. |
Event Narrative | The tornado initially touched down just west of Hoover Road, snapping a tree and moved to the northeast. Before reaching Hoover Road, numerous large tree limbs were broken, a barn lost numerous roof panels, and several undercarriage panels of a modular home were ripped off. Sheet metal panels were strewn across the area for about 200 to 300 yards. After crossing Hoover Road, another large tree was snapped and another uprooted. The tornado then crossed US Highway 190 and crossed over Edna Kinchen Road. This location had the most significant tree damage with multiple softwoods and hardwoods snapped and uprooted. The tornado then moved into a field along Crain Road before causing some very light tree limb damage and minor roof damage to a mobile home. The tornado then continued to the northeast, crossing over Hutchinson Cemetary Road causing minor roof damage to another modular house, scattered limb damage, and knocked down a large section of a wood fence. |
