Lowry/Iota Tornado map
NOTE:  tornado path is approximate & based on NWS Storm Data

This tornado began near Lowry, Louisiana just north of the Cameron Parish line, and continued north-northeastward towards Iota.  The path likely consists of two separate tornadoes, due to a funnel cloud being visible aloft and a break in the damage path near Jennings.  (NWS Storm Data)
