Arthur's storms have pushed Louisiana well above its usual June tornado count.

The state averages about three tornadoes in June. As of Wednesday, the National Weather Service has identified 14 tornadoes from the June 18th and 19th outbreak, after adding three more tracks from damage surveys.

The strongest started in Saint Tammany Parish and crossed into Mississippi with winds near 105 miles per hour.

The last time Louisiana saw a double digit tornado count in June was 1989.
