EF1 tornado in Morehouse Parish, Louisiana

There is some uncertainty where this tornado first touched down and dissipated due to a number of farm fields and limited damage. Based on radar information and surrounding evidence, it was determined that it started in a field. The greatest damage occurred near the intersection of School House Lane and Sidney White Rd. A well-structured home had significant roof damage, and a playhouse and shed were completed destroyed. On the University of Louisiana-Monroe radar, a tornadic debris signature was visible near this home. A number of uprooted trees were sporadically down around the edge of the circulation and were probably caused by straight line winds. On Hwy 425, north of Oak Ridge, a few power poles had to be replaced. This is where it was determined that the tornado dissipated. The maximum wind speeds with this tornado were 95 mph.

During the early morning hours of April 30th, a line of severe thunderstorms tracked toward and through the ArkLaMiss region. This line brought damaging winds and tornadoes to the region.
