Event narrative (NOAA)
An EF2 tornado with estimated maximum winds near 125 mph touched down again from the same supercell thunderstorm that produced the tornado near and over Lake Murvaul in Southwest Panola County, with this tornado downing and uprooting about 10 hardwood and softwood trees along Highway 59 several miles south of Carthage. The tornado intensified as it tracked parallel to FM 2517 and ripped the roof off of a single family home. The tornado's damage path widened considerably as it moved between FM 2517 and County Road 405. Security footage from a local meat processing center in the Antioch community indicates that a multiple-vortex tornado developed as the storm continued and produced a wide swath of snapped trees north and south of FM 2517. ||Along County Road 405, the multiple-vortex tornado
