EF0 tornado in Jefferson Davis Parish, Louisiana

An EF0 Tornado began south of Pom Roy Road and moved north-northeastward, damaging several trees. As the tornado crossed Highway 14 about 4 miles west of Lake Arthur, it damaged several more trees at homes on the south side of the highway and blew around some outdoor furniture. The tornado then continued north-northeastward across rural areas, knocking down a power pole on Highway 380 and blowing down a swath of sugarcane along Rouch Road. A resident of Thornwell photographed the tornado as it traveled through this area. More power poles and power lines were blown down as the tornado crossed Lyons Road just south of Guidry Road. The tornado then curved northward and north-northwestward, crossing back over Lyons Road just north of Mouton Road, where it knocked down several more power poles before dissipating.

A line of strong to severe thunderstorms developed along a cold front and moved eastward across southwest Louisiana during the late morning and afternoon hours. Ahead of the line, numerous supercells developed across the northern Gulf of Mexico and moved northward across the area. Two of the supercells spawned a total of 6 tornadoes, while several reports of damaging winds were received with the line of storms. All of these storms combined to produce widespread heavy rainfall and flash flooding across the entire area.
