ALONG HIGHWAY 1 IN FAR WESTERN ASCENSION PARISH JUST AFTER
MIDNIGHT ON FEBRUARY 15TH. HERE, THE TORNADO MAINLY SNAPPED LARGE
BRANCHES AND SMALL TREE TRUNKS. THE TORNADO CONTINUED EASTWARD
CAUSING MINOR TREE DAMAGE AS IT CROSSED HWY 405 AND THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER. MORE DAMAGE TO LARGE BRANCHES AND TREE TOPS
WAS OBSERVED ALONG RIVER RD NORTH OF DARROW. THE TORNADO

TOWARDS WALTER HILL RD. THE TORNADO THEN CROSSED THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER A 2ND TIME AND REMAINED OVER EITHER OPEN FIELDS OR A
REFINERY. THE TORNADO REACHED PEAK INTENSITY AS IT APPROACHED
HIGHWAY 70 WHERE IT SNAPPED A FEW TREE TRUNKS. THE TORNADO THEN
CONTINUED OVER THE MARSH EAST OF HIGHWAY 70 WHERE IT LIKELY
LIFTED NEAR THE ASCENSION/ST. JAMES PARISH LINE. THIS TRACK
REMAINS PRELIMINARY AND ADDITIONAL CHANGES COULD OCCUR AFTER

MIDNIGHT ON FEBRUARY 15TH. THIS TORNADO STARTED BY SNAPPING LARGE
BRANCHES AND UPROOTING A TREE ON TE NOM LANDRY RD AND HIGHWAY
308 SOUTH. IT CONTINUED MOVING EAST-NORTHEAST OVER OPEN FIELDS
UNTIL REACHING THE INTERSECTION OF HIGHWAY 3089 AND HIGHWAY 70.
HERE, THE TORNADO STRENGTHENED TO EF-1 INTENSITY WHERE A POWER
POLE AND TREE TRUNK WERE SNAPPED. THIS TORNADO MAINTAINED
INTENSITY AS IT CONTINUED MOVING TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST WHERE IT
SNAPPED A SERIES OF POWERLINES OFF OF BAXTER RD ON THE SOUTH SIDE
OF THE CF INDUSTRIES COMPLEX. THE TORNADO THEN STARTED TO
INTENSIFY TO PEAK INTENSITY AS IT CROSSED INTO ST. JAMES PARISH
WHILE MOVING THROUGH MAINLY OPEN FIELDS BEFORE IT HIT A SERIES OF
POWERLINES IN AN OPEN FIELD, SNAPPING 4 LINES. IT MAINTAINED
STRENGTH AS IT CROSSED ANOTHER OPEN FIELD ALONG BADGER RD BEFORE
SNAPPING ANOTHER SERIES OF POWERLINES ALONG HIGHWAY 18. THE
TORNADO APPEARED TO WEAKEN AS IT CONTINUED TO MOVE EAST-NORTHEAST
ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. WHEN THE TORNADO REACHED HIGHWAY

THEN MOVED INTO THE MARSH NORTH OF HIGHWAY 3025 BEFORE REACHING
HIGHWAY 61 WHERE IT UPROOTED ANOTHER TREE. THE LAST DAMAGE POINT
FOR THIS TORNADO IS ALONG I-10 WHERE IT SNAPPED MORE LARGE
BRANCHES. THIS TRACK REMAINS PRELIMINARY AND ADDITIONAL CHANGES
COULD OCCUR AFTER FURTHER REVIEW OF HIGH-RESOLUTION SATELLITE
IMAGERY IN THE COMING WEEKS.

ON FEBRUARY 15TH. AN TRAILER RV WAS PARTIALLY FLIPPED OFF OF
TALBOT AVE AS THE TORNADO MOVED TO THE EAST-SOUTHEAST. THE
TORNADO THEN REACH PEAK STRENGTH AS IT IMPACTED TABERNACLE
PENTECOSTAL CHURCH. HERE, THE TORNADO LIFTED A SIGNIFICANT
PORTION OF THE ROOF OF THE CHURCH, DISPLACING IT TO THE EAST. THE
WOOD FRAMING OF THE ROOFING HAD EVIDENCE OF ROTTING, SO THE LOWER
BOUND FOR THAT DAMAGE WAS USED IN THIS CASE. THE TORNADO SLIGHTLY
WEAKENED AS IT MOVED EAST-SOUTHEAST WHERE MINIMAL DAMAGE WAS
FOUND UNTIL IT REACHED PERCY BROWN RD WHERE MULTIPLE LARGE
BRANCHES WERE SNAPPED ALONG IT. THE TORNADO REMAINED VERY WEAK AS
IT CONTINUED TO THE EAST-SOUTHEAST WHERE THE NEXT NOTABLE DAMAGE
CAME ON CROSSING NORTH ST WHERE A BACKYARD AWNING WAS UPLIFTED.
AS THE TORNADO MOVED TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST, VEGETATION DAMAGE WAS
NOTED ON HIGH-RESOLUTION IMAGERY NORTH OF ROUSSEAU WHERE THE
TORNADO APPEARED TO HAVE LIFTED THOUGH ADDITIONAL ANALYSIS WILL
BE NEEDED TO DETERMINE THE END POINT OVER INACCESSIBLE AREAS.
THIS TRACK REMAINS PRELIMINARY AND ADDITIONAL CHANGES COULD OCCUR
AFTER FURTHER REVIEW OF HIGH-RESOLUTION SATELLITE IMAGERY IN THE
COMING WEEKS.
