You make a good point. I’ve been running around terrified of losing A/C. But the dead calm is still pretty eerie. Not even a breeze.

Ok. No more weather for me tonight. Need a moment to let the mind rest.
Oh, no, don’t leave us alone in Ruston just yet. Are we ok at this point?

A High Risk tomorrow wouldn't shock me. For those intrested, the SPC should update ~1am. The High probably won't come tonight, but you can glean alot of what they're thinking by the wording they use. They may also outright say that an upgrade to a High Risk may be needed in future updates.

One last post about tonight.
Look at where the Tornado Warning still is. It is at the Rear Inflow Jet area of the line that has remained prominent really since before it crossed the state line. The flurry of warnings came when it really started to ramp up, but it has never really reached it's full potential. When a RIJ can wrap around and create a strong Rear Inflow Notch on the backside of the line tear the top of the comma head it can produce stronger, more persistent tornadoes. This one caused some problems, but it could have been worse.
Back in December in Iowa we saw one reach that potential.

I'm in South Shreveport. That warning snuck up on me earlier. Weatherman on tv mentioned my neighborhood and before I could get any specifics, power went out which took mobile data down with it so I was blind on the weather apps too. 
Power is still out 2 hours later and swepco looks fricked on the outage map.

Rough count of around 18,000 customer outages around Shreveport Bossier.

Same here- wind was whistling through my back door for a few minutes after power went out. I wasn’t sure whether to wake the kids up or not, but it passed within 2-3 minutes. No fences down at my house, so i guess we’re good until tomorrow

does it seem weird to anyone else this seems to happen on a Tuesday/Wednesday every week for the past three weeks?

Go buy yourself a $40 weather radio. As a long as you have backup batteries you can't beat them for just the circumstance you mentioned.

Yeah probably a good call. I'm not a real panicker when it comes to weather, I'm always following the weather threads on storms like this and I've gotten comfortable enough to know what to look for on radarscope etc in a warning but this one I didn't even have much time to track what was going on so i went on and headed to the safe room at that point.

I’m no expert but the atmosphere is in very elementary terms a pattern of waves of different pressures. Just like in the oceans waves can fall into patterns and those patterns can become relatively regular, which is what we have seen these past 3-4 weeks. Just like in the ocean those patterns will eventually change for various different reasons and this won’t happen like this any more
That, or George W has forgotten to change the settings in his weather machine and we are stuck in this loop
Also, Duke or Legend should be by shortly to clarify how much of this I fricked up

SPC has the new Day 1 outlook out
kept it at moderate risk and no wording in the discussion hints at any potential upgrade to high risk... at least as of yet

Seems reasonable enough. I will say do not sleep on this in North LA. I don't know if it is because the timing of tonight's storms or due to a remnant boundary, but the HRRR is coming in hot down that way, too. Broken line/ semi-discreet cells firing a bit earlier than prior runs.
The most Southern mode is more worrisome now than it was before.

So much for the Barksdale Bubble.
That storm tore through Shreveport knocking out power to most of the southern half of the city, then drops a tornado at the foot of the Jimmie Davis bridge as soon as it crosses the river into Bossier.
We’ll have to wait for the NWS to confirm, but it looks like stayed on the ground as it cut directly across Barksdale AFB towards Haughton. Thankfully, that area of the base is mostly wetlands and thick woods.
