            On January 5, 2025 an EF2 tornado moved
            through portions of Union Parish in
            Louisiana. The tornado began on Cable Lane
            Road, southeast of Marion at approximately
            20:19. The tornado then continues to move
            northeast, crossing Boothville Road while
            snapping numerous tree branches and tree
            trunks, some of which covered the roadway.
            By 20:22, the tornado reached Earnest Pace
            Road, where a trailer was lifted and blown
            off of its foundation, with associated
            debris also being blown across the road.
            Extensive vehicle damage was also noted in
            this area. The tornado continued to move
            northeast, producing damage along Jurd
            Pardue Road, where several homes also
            experienced damage to roofs and carports.
            The tornado then crossed Dean Church Road
            where the most extensive damage was found. A
            local shop collapsed and was then blown off
            of its foundation. This is where estimated
            peak winds of 132 mph were found. The
            tornado then moved along Parish Road 2260,
            producing damage to another homes roof and
            nearby sheds before lifting into the Upper
            Quachita Wildlife Refuge.
