| Episode Narrative | A strong upper level disturbance and a cold front moved across the region during the morning of the 15th producing several severe thunderstorms and a tornado. |
| Event Narrative | A weak tornado briefly touched down on highway 1181 east-southeast of Plaucheville in Avoyelles Parish. Three mobile homes and one brick home received minor damage to shingles, large roof awnings, and attached carports. One mobile home had a separate building for cooking and storage that had a wall break off when the roof awning blew off and also, a window broken when wind picked up an item and it hit the window. A small but sturdy storage shed was picked up spun and landed 20 yards from its original location. A large barn had a section of a door and wall blown off. Several trees were snapped. |
