Episode Narrative As Hurricane Harvey struck southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana, outer rain bands moved across southeast Louisiana, southern Mississippi and the adjacent coastal waters on several occasions between the 28th and 30th of August. Several tornadoes were reported across the area as well as instances of flooding.
Event Narrative The tornado produced mostly EF-0 damage, but a large farmstead had two barns heavily damaged with EF-1 type damage with winds estimated at 100 mph. Large hardwood trees were split. Large encased walnuts were thrown as projectiles through airborne shingles. A small limb was wind driven and wedged between a window frame and the brick wall without breaking the glass. A social media photo was posted showing the tornado from the starting location vantage point.
