| 09:44Z | EF1 | KPOE | LA | Morehouse | Gum Ridge | There is some uncertainty where this tornado first touched down and dissipated due to a number of farm fields and limited damage.

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. |
