Watch: Drone captures incredible video of a tornado tearing through New Orleans

In the video, you can see the tornado crossing the Mississippi River and moving into the town of Arabi.

As the tornado continues on its path of destruction, you can see flashes of energy lighting up the sky, transformers exploding, and power lines being downed by strong winds.

After the storm passed, damage surveys began to determine how strong the tornado was on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, but the National Weather Service said it could take some time to process all the results.
