Reports of a possible tornado and storm damage in Port Barre on Monday at King's Truck Stop on Highway 190. Employees at the truck stop said a gazebo that had been there for five years and made it through two hurricanes was completely destroyed by Monday's storm.

A fence behind the station was also torn up and blown over in some areas. Employees said they weren't sure if it was a tornado or just strong winds and heavy rain that did the damage. No one was injured during the severe weather.
