Summary
Eight tornadoes ripped through Louisiana and Mississippi on June 18, 2026, leaving a trail of destruction from New Orleans to Houma and beyond—with no fatalities but two injuries reported. The storms, active from 2:49 AM to 8:12 AM, included EF-1 and EF-0 twisters that tore roofs off homes, flipped vehicles, and uprooted trees. One particularly long-track EF-1 tornado spanned 12 miles, damaging homes, mobile units, and boats with winds up to 105 mph. The National Weather Service is still surveying areas like Eden Isle for additional weak tornadoes and will release a final update Monday, June 22.
