October 31, 2018 - Tornado

This is the continuation of the Southeast Grant Parish EF-2 tornado. This tornado, with estimated maximum winds of 134 mph, continued northeast across the heavily wooded areas just southeast of Highway 8, until it crossed Cecil Road where a double wide mobile home on cinder blocks was lifted, flipped, and moved approximately 100 yards. Fortunately, the couple living in the mobile home received the Tornado Warning via Wireless Emergency Alerts and moved to a nearby home before the mobile home was destroyed. The tornado tracked northeast across Highway 774 where numerous trees were snapped or uprooted, before moving over Mayo Road. It was here where a mobile home was completely destroyed with five other mobile homes, three structures, and four family homes suffering partial damage. The tornado crossed Highway 8 and along Highway 772, where the roof of a mobile home was partially ripped off, and a resident was trapped in a nearby home by falling trees. The tornado then moved through the community of Trout, where additional trees were snapped or uprooted and power lines downed along Highway 84 and Church Street. It continued northeast across Biltmore Drive, and across a heavily wooded area before finally lifting near an unnamed dirt road just off of Highway 127 a couple of miles northwest of Jena. The total path length of this tornado from when it initially touched down just southwest of Alexandria (in Rapides Parish), to when it lifted northwest of Jena (in La Salle Parish) was approximately 38 miles.||The La Salle Parish Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness estimates that 82 homes were damaged, eleven mobile homes were destroyed, as well as damage to two business and one public building. The Trout Post Office received minor damage as well as Ganey Equipment and a Methodist Church.

An EF-2 tornado with maximum estimated winds between 125-135 mph touched down south southwest of the Rogers community along Walker Ferry Road, snapping and uprooting trees as well as power poles along Highway 127. As this tornadic supercell moved to the north northeast, it cut a clear path through the forest to the Belah community, snapping and uprooting the mature trees and bending the young trees. The Belah community suffered widespread damage, with snapped and uprooted trees as well as snapped power poles. Several cars and homes were damaged by falling trees as well as flying debris. Several homes as well as the local school had roof damage. The EF-2 damage not only occurred in the Belah community, where several power poles were snapped in either two or three pieces, but also in Trout, where a boat business collapsed in on itself. Between the Belah community and Trout, the tornado cut another clear path through the forest, snapping and uprooting more trees.
