If this actually happened I wouldn't be surprised, but looking at this thread, I hope things don't get as bad as it has the potential to get.

That's has to be an EF-4 right?

The one through Alexandria? Who knows. It was strongest on radar about 10-15 miles to the southwest and again 10-15 miles to the northeast of Alexandria. I'm not sure if Alexandria will be the best gauge of its peak strength.

ETA: A few miles west of Woodworth was when it looked most impressive ***This is an old image***

PDS days are rare but they are very dangerous when issued.

New tornado warning due east of Ball, LA.



Figured this one was coming soon. The long-track cell that went through Alexandria is no longer warned in the Olla area. It was consistently warned for the past two hours, nearly 70 miles.

I just drove a loop in my area. Something went down between Heyman and MacArthur. Lots of trees down. Emergency vehicles errywhere. Saw some pines with the matchstick type snap. Every soft billboard is destroyed. Split bradford pear all over town.

i starting to think this high risk area is a bust, a lot of convection forming ahead of the main line that isn't tornadic or even severe drawing energy away preventing multiple discrete supercells

I'd be surprised if we don't see a tornado warning on this cell south of Winnfield before it is said and done:

Not much of a bust when practically the entire high risk area is under a severe thunderstorm warning at a minimum. The "high" risk doesn't apply to tornadoes only.

Looks like Alexandria might get another storm.

right now the main line of storms is in the middle of the high risk area, these big lines are just a wind and hail risk usually

Current tornado SW of Jena:



Whoa.

FWIW, this was the tornado from an hour and ten minutes ago:



Practically in the exact same spot. Damn.
