Starting July 6, the Storm Prediction Center outlined a slight risk convective outlook for parts of Texas and Louisiana, stating that dew points in the mid to upper 70s Fahrenheit, along with strong low-level winds and favorable hodographs, would be conducive to the development of tornadoes.[6] On July 7, multiple forecast models were showing the presence of semi-discrete supercells forming, as SRH values ranged between 200–300m²/s², and the SPC stated that a few tornadoes were possible.[7] On July 8, Beryl made landfall near Matagorda, Texas, United States as a Category 1hurricane.[8]
This strong, low-end EF2 tornado tracked through the west side of Jasper. Many power poles and trees were snapped or uprooted and numerous homes and outbuildings were heavily damaged. One person was injured.[10][11]
This high-end EF1 tornado began as a waterspout over Patroon Creek before briefly moving onshore at an RV park on the Holly Park Marina. A couple of RVs were destroyed after being overturned and tossed, a few boats were thrown, a boat dock was ruined, and a small fish cleaning station was destroyed. After crossing over the creek, the tornado snapped or uprooted numerous trees. The tornado then moved into the Toledo Bend Reservoir before dissipating.[13]
Mainly tree and timber damage occurred. Most of the track was determined via high-resolution satellite imagery and aerial imagery since most of the area was inaccessible to ground surveys.[16]
This large EF2 tornado struck a church property, heavily damaging every building there. A mobile home suffered minor roof damage, wooden power poles were snapped, and trees were snapped or uprooted as well.[17]
This high-end EF1 tornado touched down in the center of Timpson, ripping almost half the roof off a business, destroying an RV, and snapping or uprooting numerous trees. The tornado then moved northwestward out of the town, snapping several trees before dissipating.[18]
This large, long-tracked tornado first traveled north along LA 175, producing sporadic tree damage before moving through Pleasant Hill, snapping or uprooting numerous trees and ripping metal roof panels off of a structure. Past Pleasant Hill, two single-wide manufactured homes being used as offices at a refinery were rolled. As the tornado reached LA 346, it ripped large portions of roofs off of two homes and obliterated a mobile home. Many trees were snapped or uprooted, including some that fell on and damaged homes and vehicles. The tornado then continued generally northward, damaging, snapping, or uprooting trees before dissipating.[19]
This long-tracked tornado snapped or uprooted dozens of trees and downed power poles and powerlines. As the tornado passed close to Keithville, it flipped a single-wide mobile home, before the tornado reached peak intensity in Bethany, causing extensive, very high-end EF1 damage. Some structures were damaged by fallen trees as well. One person was injured in the flipped mobile home, while another was trapped but unscathed.[21]
This high-end EF0 tornado initially damaged trees before and after crossing Lake Cherokee. After causing very sporadic tree damage, the tornado struck the East Texas Regional Airport, where several hangars had their large metal doors knocked down or twisted and some side paneling ripped off as well. Two stop signs were twisted from their base, although this damage was unratable. The tornado then caused some additional tree damage before dissipating.[22]
Homes suffered roof damage, power lines were downed, and trees were snapped or uprooted by this high-end EF1 tornado. Much of the track was inaccessible due to the lack of an adequate road network.[29]
This high-end EF1 tornado moved along the western shoreline of the Toledo Bend Reservoir, snapping or uprooting dozens of trees, including some that blocked roads. Smaller buildings at a camp were also damaged.[30]
A substantial tree damage signature was noted along the eastern shore of the Toledo Bend Reservoir. Since the tornado came off the water, there was no way to determine if the track was longer than analyzed. Additionally, the entire path of the tornado was confirmed via high resolution satellite data and a radar tornadic debris signature since the area was inaccessible to ground surveys.[33]
This tornado formed as the long-track EF1 Benton tornado was dissipating and was the second one produced by the Eastwood supercell. Numerous trees were snapped.[34]
After initially snapping and uprooting countless trees, this strong tornado reached low-end EF2 intensity at an intersection west of Union Springs. It removed most of the roof off a house and blew it into neighboring lawns with a 2x4 from the roof piercing another home. Other homes and cars in the area were damaged by snapped or uprooted trees. The tornado then continued to snap and uproot trees as it moved north-northwestward before dissipating. One person was injured.[35]
In Louisiana, this multi-vortex tornado snapped trees and power poles. In Arkansas, the tornado damaged six power poles, including two that were snapped, and laid out a 50 yd-wide (46 m) section of corn. This was the fourth tornado produced by the Eastwood supercell.[38]
This was a satellite tornado to the EF1 Gin City tornado. Some large tree limbs were downed. This was the fifth tornado produced by the Eastwood supercell.[41]
This erratic tornado removed a few metal panels from a metal barn and snapped or uprooted trees. This was the sixth tornado produced by the Eastwood supercell.[43]
This tornado touched down as the second Shongaloo EF1 tornado dissipated. In Louisiana, trees were snapped or uprooted, including one tree that fell on a vehicle. A shed was damaged and an old barn had some tin peeled off. The tornado continued to snap or uproot trees after crossing into Arkansas before dissipating.[49]
A tornado ripped roofing off two homes and an older retail building. Additional structures sustained damage from damaged trees. This was the eighth and final tornado produced by the Eastwood supercell.[50]
This low-end EF1 tornado was a twin to the tornado below. It severely damaged the awning of a carport that was attached to a manufactured home and damaged trees.[53]
This brief but strong tornado struck a home which was unroofed and had multiple exterior walls knocked down. Two pickup trucks were rolled or thrown into the yard and many trees around the home were damaged as well.[56]
This low-end EF1 tornado damaged a couple of outbuildings and peeled metal roofing off of a large barn. Long swaths of trees were uprooted as well. The survey for this tornado was conducted through geotagged drone imagery from the Camden Fire Department.[57]
This tornado touched down just north of the Ohio River causing minor tree and crop damage before quickly strengthening to low-end EF3 intensity and striking a Kenco facility on the east side of Mt. Vernon. The structure had half of its roof removed along with large sections of its outer walls collapsed. Just to the north of there, the tornado damaged power poles, overturned semitrailers, and derailed several train cars. The tornado then continued northward, heavily damaging a mobile home, two homes, outbuildings, and snapping or uprooting trees before dissipating.[64]
A detached garage was destroyed and a residence had about half its roof removed. Two wooden power poles were left leaning and corn was damage in fields.[66]
Many structures, including homes, suffered varying degrees of roof damage from this high-end EF1 tornado, including some that had their roofs removed and exterior walls knocked down. Many trees were snapped or uprooted as well.[70]
This strong tornado initially damaged multiple buildings, snapped tree limbs, and uprooted shallow trees. After damaging the roof of another structure, the tornado intensified to low-end EF2 strength, destroying multiple farm buildings. From there the tornado weakened slightly, snapping trees at high-end EF1 intensity before abruptly dissipating.[71]
This high-end EF1 tornado snapped or uprooted numerous trees. Just before lifting, it struck a newly built horse barn, ripping off a portion of its roof and blowing out windows.[72]
A brief tornado affected vehicular traffic on NY 104A, which is not a damage indicator. Surveys are ongoing to determine if the tornado caused any tree or structural damage.[75]
This large, long-tracked, strong tornado began in extreme northern Red River Parish at 2:15 p.m. CDT and moved north-northwestward, snapping several trees and uprooting more at EF1 intensity. Structural damage in the area was mainly due to fallen trees and remained minor to moderate. The tornado then entered Bossier Parish and briefly weakened to EF0 intensity, damaging trees and power poles before reaching EF1 intensity again as it crossed over US 71 into the Loggy Bayou Wildlife Management Area, continuing to damage trees as it moved over either open or wooded terrain as it moved north-northwestard. East of Elm Grove, 10 trees were uprooted at a residence along LA 154. Another area of intense tree damage occurred along Robinson Road. The tornado continued to track north-northwestward, crossing over the LA 157 and LA 527 snapping or uprooting dozens of trees. Several structures along Sligo Road between Sligo and Oakland were heavily damaged by falling trees before the tornado entered the southeast corner of Barksdale Air Force Base. The tornado moved through the eastern portion of the base at EF0 to low-end EF1 strength, snapping or uprooting trees, snapping power poles, and downing powerlines.
The tornado then exited the base, snapping trees at EF0 strength as it crossed over I-20 and entered Eastwood before reaching EF1 intensity again as it crossed US 79/US 80. Throughout the town, the tornado downed power poles and powerlines and snapped or uprooted trees, including some that fell on and damaged structures. North of town along Bellevue Road, the tornado caused minor damage to a mobile home and snapped or uprooted additional trees. The tornado then caused its most intense damage southeast of and in the Linton community east of Benton. Here, the tornado reached low-end EF2 intensity briefly multiple times, causing a widespread area of higher-end tree damage with large trees being snapped as well. Much of the tree damage was not accessible through ground survey but aerial flight imagery revealed the extent of the damage. Several structures were damaged by fallen trees, including one mobile home along East Linton Road that had a large tree knocked down onto it, killing two women and injuring one child. The tornado continued to cause EF1 powerline and tree damage as it continued north-northwest away from Linton and crossed over LA 162 before it weakened to EF0 strength as it moved over wooded, inaccessible terrain. Damage was generally limited to snapped tree branches as the tornado approached and passed through Hughes. The tornado then turned more northerly and briefly strengthening to EF1 strength as it crossed LA 3, snapping and uprooting trees, including one tree that fell on a small church. It then caused additional EF0 tree damage before reaching EF1 intensity one final time as it moved over LA 2, snapping and uprooting trees before lifting west of Plain Dealing at 3:50 p.m. CDT.[10][24]
The tornado was on the ground for an hour and 35 minutes, tracked 53.38 mi (85.91 km), and had a peak width of 1,000 yd (910 m). The storm that produced it spawned a total of eight tornadoes, with this one being the first.[10][24][23]
