A mesocyclone embedded in the squall line produced a weak tornado. Small trees were uprooted in a field west of Louisiana Highway 306, producing EF-0 damage. Path width was 25 yards wide at this point. The tornado quickly moved to the east-southeast and crossed Highway 306 between Mark and Matthew Streets, where additional large tree branches were snapped from numerous trees. Minor damage to roof coverings was noted along Mark and Matthew Streets. Power poles were also leaning south of Matthew Street. The damage path was 50 yards wide at this point and EF-0 damage was noted. The tornado continued east-southeast, and moved across Shamrock Drive at Edna Street. A home had siding removed and some shingles removed. Trees were also damaged along Edna Street. The tornado was 50 yards wide and produced EF-0 damage along Edna and Shamrock Streets. There was additional tree damage observed beyond the levee behind Shamrock Street, but due to lack of access, this is where the end point of the tornado is noted.
