15:10Z EF0 KTBW FL Lee Pine Island A virtual survey using several photos captured from the area suggests that the only damage was done to a recently-constructed metal outdoor freezer. This freezer was complete, properly secured, and was made of aluminum and insulated with Styrofoam. |While some fence damage was noted, this damage could not be reliably attributed to the tornado, given a lack of nearby tree damage and little-to-debris. Imagery from the area also shows some damage to this fence before the tornado took place. As such, the |tornado was on the ground for approximately 27 feet (or 0.005 mi) and spent only a few brief seconds on the ground before lifting again.

The tornado moved southeast across the end of County Road 4401 and blew trees down onto a home and a vehicle. In this area, the tornado reached its peak intensity with gusts estimated to be 95 mph. The tornado continued southeastward and damaged more trees. It dissipated near County Road 672 where the foof of an outbuilding was peeled back.

The roof sustained minimal to no visible damage. This tornado lifted after crossing Old Country Road before reaching U.S. Highway 67 south of Pocahontas. This tornado had estimated winds of 107 mph and was rated EF-1.
00:38Z EF0 KDGX MS Madison Sharon An EF-0 tornado began near Stump Bridge Road, moved east across Sharon Rd. at John Powell Rd., and lifted before reaching Dry Creek Rd.

Jackson St. and then moved east-northeast through the downtown Ridgeland area. Along its path, multiple trees were damaged. The historic Wesley Chapel on West Porter Street, which was moved from Old Canton Road to its current location in the 1900s, was destroyed when it was blown off its foundation blocks. The tornado crossed Maple St., Central Avenue, and Washington St. A home along N. Wheatley St. had shingle damage. The tornado continued east across NE Madison Dr. and US Highway 51 where a business sustained shingle and tin damage. The tornado ended near the intersection of Beaver Creek Drive and Willow Dr. where a power pole was blown down, fences were damaged, and some minor roof damage occurred.

01:15Z EF2 KLZK AR Union Wilmington Lndg During the evening hours on Sunday, June 18th, a strong thunderstorm developed about 12 miles to the northeast of El Dorado, Arkansas in Union County. Shortly after forming, the storm became severe and started to rotate. The storm went on to produce an EF-2 tornado, touching down near the Cypress Creek Oil Field to the north of Moro Bay Highway near Stowe Ditch Road. At this location, there were numerous trees either snapped or uprooted from winds around 80 to 85 mph. As the tornado tracked to the southeast towards Moro Bay Highway, it strengthened some which was evident from the more widespread tree damage. As it crossed Moro Bay Highway, it did not cause any major damage to structures despite there being some along the path. From there,|the road network became sparse, but some additional tree damage was observed along Feldmann Road to the southeast of Moro Bay Highway. ||From there, the tornado continued to track southeast, causing significant damage along Pigeon Hill Road. The tornado continued to strengthen as it moved toward New London Road. This is where the greatest destruction was observed as the tornado moved over|a chicken farm and five chicken coops. Three of the five chicken coops were completely destroyed with additional damage to a few other barns and outbuildings. With the amount of tree damage surrounding the chicken coops, along with the total destruction of three of them, the tornado was rated EF-2 with maximum winds at 115 mph. This damage was short-lived and confined to this farm on the west and east side of New London Road. Additionally, there was a tree that fell on a manufactured home just to the north of the farm. The owners of the farm who lived in a brick home were able to call the family in the manufactured home after getting the tornado warning and had them rush to their house. So no one was in the the manufactured home when it took on damage. From there, the tornado continued to track to the southeast with more significant tree damage off Christian Road and North Road to the north of Phelps Road before lifting.

In this area, several homes sustained minor to moderate roof damage, the walls of an outbuilding were collapsed, and the fence around a basketball court was downed. The tornado reached its peak intensity east of McLin Cir. where more prolific snapping of trees occurred. The tornado weakened and lifted as it crossed Thomasville Rd. near Johnson Place. Estimated maximum winds were 115 mph. A tornadic debris signature was observed on radar with this tornado.

More intense structural damage occurred to buildings at Peco Farms where vehicles were also damaged, and a few loading trucks were flipped. Substantial tree damage began along the railroad tracks on the east side of the facility as the tornado moved across the property of Jones Lumber. There 3 metal building systems were demolished with an additional 3 having moderate to major damage. Estimated winds in this area were up to 150 mph. The tornado remained strong for much of its remaining path and caused substantial tree and power line damage. Notable tree fall against forward motion was also observed along the path. A few homes on the edge of the path had minor damage along County Road 1529 and 15291. A section of double wooden pole transmission lines was blown down just west of County Road 1537.
