Definitely fits the definition of a long-track tornado. It has no other storms around it to compete with either.

East tx, faded between leesville and Alexandria but fired back up a lil SW of ellick

I'm not convinced it ever really faded. The structure was there, but the velocity didn't match. Velocity started looking weird the closer it got the the radar site. It may have cycled, but I don't think it ever faded.

let's just say I'm close enough to ASH where when they hosted a football playoff game this past season... it sounded like a warzone near me

And plenty of instability out in front of it. SPC has monitored downstream all night, and continues to say there is more than enough fuel.

NWS Lake Charles was waiting until it was almost out of the polygon to extend the warning. On the flipside, NWS Jackson already has its LA parishes that are in the path under a tornado warning.

I've watched way too many of those tornado chaser shows when they were popular some years ago (before the 2013 El Reno, Okla. tornado really woke everyone up to the dangers of chasing)

Tornado touched down in Woodworth. About 15 miles south of Alexandria.

They called a code gray at the hospital and I had to walk around

Looks like it may be going through a cycling phase.

Do we have any damage reports from this supercell passing through CenLa? I've neither seen nor heard of any damage from the Ft. Polk area.

Yeah, I watched all of those, too. Good stuff, but was only a matter of time until something bad happened.
