Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA strong upper level trough of low pressure extending from the Intermountain West into the Four Corners Region energized the southwest flow aloft across the Southern Plains during much of the day on May 8th, with a strong low level jet sustaining a mesoscale convective complex (MCS) across much of Oklahoma into Northcentral Texas south into the Texas Hill Country. While these storms gradually weakened after daybreak as a cold pool from these storms propagated southeast into the region, additional upper level disturbances ahead of this trough interacted with ample moisture and instability near this cold pool to intensify these showers and thunderstorms, some of which became severe with damaging winds as they moved across portions of East Texas, Southwest Arkansas, and North Louisiana. Strong low level shear was also present within the moderately unstable air mass, with discrete supercell thunderstorms developing across extreme East Texas and North Louisiana. This resulted in eleven reports of tornadoes across Northern Louisiana before the storms gradually weakened during the evening. However, locally heavy rainfall from the stronger storms persisted across portions of North Louisiana during the evening through the overnight/early morning hours of the 9th.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA video of a funnel cloud was taken by a Louisiana State Trooper looking south of the intersection of Highway 1 and Highway 175 in extreme Southeast Caddo Parish. This funnel cloud touched down earlier as a tornado near the intersection of Ellerbe Road and Highway 175.
