April 10, 2024 9:49 AM CT | UNK | 2 NNW Slidell | LA | A combination of high resolution satellite imagery... ground survey... and radar imagery has aided in the confirmation of an EF1 tornado with max winds speeds of 90mph that tracked for 4.92 miles across Alton and northwest parts of Slidell on the morning of April 10... 2024. This tornado touched down just south of Interstate 12 near Ben Thomas Road and tracked northeast. The tornado crossed Interstate 12 just west of US Highway 11 where the tornado was observed via video confirmation and ground survey of snapped trees. Sporadic tree damage continued northeast with more widespread tree damage being identified around Alton Elementary School. The tornado then crossed US Highway 11 where more tree damage was identified along Highway 1091. Damage became more sporadic and the end point of this tornado is harder to discern due to the beginning of a stronger and larger tornado that crossed nearby this area thereafter. |
April 10, 2024 10:01 AM CT | UNK | 2 NNW Eden Isle | LA | An EF2 tornado with max wind speeds of 120mph touched down 2 miles northwest of Eden Isle and tracked east-northeast for 11.2 miles. Damage in its path included many snapped trees... roof damage to homes... blown out windows of a business... and one business suffering the failure of roof purlins causing most of the building to cave in. We received reports of multiple injuries but the total number is unknown. |
April 10, 2024 10:03 AM CT | UNK | 2 N Eden Isle | LA | Start point - A 9.3 mile long... 120 MPH... EF2 tornado touched down 1 mile north of Eden Isle and tracked east-northeast causing mainly tree damage through the first half mile or so. It then approached Pontchartrain Drive and caused damage to a few businesses. This damage included a business with all windows blown out... minor roof damage to metal buildings... and snapped power poles. It then continued on through a neighborhood causing mainly tree damage and minor roof damage to homes. It crossed onto Old Spanish Trail where the worst of the damage occurred. A metal business building had failure of roof purlins and metal beams bent. Across the street from this metal business building... two apartment buildings suffered moderate roof damage. The tornado then continued on causing mostly tree damage and minor roof damage to apartments inthe Fremaux area. It crossed I-10 and continued to cause additional tree damage before it moved through a few neighborhoods just north and south of US-190... caus |
April 10, 2024 10:03 AM CT | UNK | 2 N Slidell | LA | High resolution satellite analysis... ground survey... and radar imagery aided in confirming the existence of an EF1 tornado with max wind speeds of 90mph that tracked for 11.2 miles starting just south of Interstate 12/10 before crossing the Interstate near Military Road and impacting the neighborhoods along Crawford Landing Road. A localized area of tree damage that aligned along eastbound Exit 83 where branches and trunks were broken or bent east distinctly separates this damage from the damage path to the north and east. This tornado damage is being used as the starting point for the tornado as it aligns with the remainder of the damage path further east. As the tornado tracked east... widespread tree damage was reported across Country Club Blvd with numerous uproots... a few snaps... and many hardwood branches broken. Damage was relatively more sporadic as the tornado crossed near the Interstate interchange until damage became more apparent along Lake Village Blvd and into Crawford Landi |
April 10, 2024 10:06 AM CT | UNK | 1 SSW Pearl River | LA | The beginning of a long-lived EF1 tornado with max wind speeds of 100mph that tracked for 19.3 miles developed near Pearl River... LA near the intersection of US Highway 11 and LA Highway 41 where numerous tree branches were snapped and tossed east. A combination of high resolution satellite and radar imagery analysis indicated that this tornado quickly grew in size and intensity after it crossed Interstate 59. Widespread tree damage could be seen on true color satellite imagery growing to a damage path as wide as 500 yards over the Pearl River Basin. Extensive wind damage could be seen extending outward half a mile south of the tornado path as the tornado approached the Louisiana- Mississippi border. The damage path briefly became more obscure and broad as the tornado to its south occluded into Stennis. Extensive tree damage occurred. While ground surveying was limited in and around Stennis Space Center... high resolution satellite imagery identified a swath of damage continued northea |
April 10, 2024 10:17 AM CT | UNK | 10 N Pearlington | MS | This EF0 tornado with max wind speeds of 85mph that tracked for 5.33 miles started fairly large from the start with a swath extending from Leonard Kimble Road and further north along Mainline Road. High resolution satellite imagery indicated the damage path continued eastward where it crossed Texas Flat Road. Branches were broken and a few snapped trees were observed in a generally confluent pattern. The end point for this tornado is estimated based off high resolution satellite NDVI differencing as it interactive with the parent mesovortex and appeared to dissipate. |
April 10, 2024 10:23 AM CT | UNK | 6 W Kiln | MS | A short-tracked tornado was identified using high resolution satellite imagery NDVI differencing. This tornado tracked over inaccessible rural lands north of Texas Flat Road along Catahoula Creek and Jourdan River before eventually dissipating as it interacted with the parent mesovortex to its east. No damage could be identified and thus the rating for this tornado is unknown. |
April 10, 2024 10:28 AM CT | UNK | 3 NW Kiln | MS | An embedded EF1 tornado with max wind speeds of 100mph that tracked for 3.72 miles following along the backside of the mesovortex was identified using high resolution satellite imagery NDVI differencing where more localized damage to trees and structures were identified via ground survey. This tornado tracked primarily along MS Highway 43 with the most widespread damage being located along the curve in Cuevas Road where a swath of trees appeared to be damaged on satellite imagery in addition to observed damage with ground survey. This is where the tornado appeared to be at its strongest. Thereafter... the damage path in NDVI differencing gradually weakens and the tornado is estimated to have dissipated as it crossed the Silver Creek Acres neighborhood where tree damage was found near Violet Street and Gardenia Street in Kiln. |
April 10, 2024 10:30 AM CT | UNK | 8 NNE Diamondhead | MS | NWS Storm Survey confirms damage in Harrison County... MS consistent with an EF-1 tornado. The tornado touched down on Cleveland Ladner Rd and River Rd... where it tore off metal roofing material on several mobile homes in the area. It also snapped trees. It crossed the Wolf River... snapping trees and tearing off the metal roofing on a mobile home on Cemetery Rd. It then moved northeastward and crossed Moran Rd... where it rolled a mobile home and separated the undercarriage from the rest of the unit. This mobile home had hurricane straps and bolts attached to the ground. The tornado then snapped some trees across the street from the home before lifting just after Moran Road. |
April 10, 2024 10:31 AM CT | UNK | 2 NNW Kiln | MS | High resolution satellite imagery aided in identifying an embedded EF0 tornado with max wind speeds of 85mph that trailed the parent mesovortex that tracked for 2.79 miles through the area. More localized tree damage in addition to an evident damage path on NDVI differencing helped to confirm the existence of this tornado which tracked from Firetower Road east-southeastward to Old Joe Moran Road. The end point is estimated per satellite imagery which occurred over inaccessible rural lands. |
April 10, 2024 10:40 AM CT | UNK | 9 NNE Diamondhead | MS | An EF0 tornado tracked east-southeast near the Wolf River causing tree damage and causing a mobile home to slide off its blocks. |
April 10, 2024 10:44 AM CT | UNK | 8 W Lyman | MS | A brief EF1 tornado caused tree damage on Northrop Cuevas Road and rolled a mobile home on Moran Road. |
