A tornado has touched down in New Orleans and the city’s suburbs Tuesday as part of a line of severe weather that started in Texas and Oklahoma and moved east into the Deep South
The National Weather Service retweeted a video of the tornado in the eastern part of New Orleans that was visible in the darkened sky.
New Orleans television aired videos Tuesday night of an apparent tornado moving from the Algiers section of New Orleans across the Mississippi River through the Lower Ninth Ward and Arabi sections of eastern New Orleans. There were no immediate details on damage or injuries. Many schools were closing early or canceling after-school activities Tuesday in parts of Louisiana and Mississippi to allow students to get home before the weather deteriorated. Shelters opened for residents who need a place to stay while the storms traveled through.
The system dumped heavy rain, downed trees and prompted multiple tornado warnings as it moved into Alabama Tuesday evening. The roofs of several homes were damaged in Toxey, Alabama, after a storm preceded by tornado warnings passed through the area, the National Weather Service tweeted. “It was crystal clear, well defined,” Harkins said. “And then one went up and another one came down.”and a blizzard warning was issued for the Texas Panhandle, where up to 9 inches of snow fell.
Abbott said 10 people were injured by storms in the Crockett area, while more than a dozen were reportedly hurt elsewhere.
