Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Slidell Radar S, LA (KSIL), launched 12:00Z, 10.5 hours before the alert went out and 78 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
419 PM CST TUE NOV 14 2006
.DISCUSSION...
THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS INCLUDING
TORNADOES FOR MUCH OF THE AREA THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE TORNADO THREAT AND SEVERE DAMAGING
STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WILL INCREASE DRAMATICALLY OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE HOURS.
STRONG NORTHWEST FLOW SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED STRONG UPPER
JET MOVING INTO THE HIGH PLAINS IS STILL EXPECTED TO CARVE OUT A
DEEP TROUGH AND UPPER LOW AS IT SWINGS THROUGH THE LOWER MS VALLEY
ON WEDNESDAY. THE WARM FRONT...LOCATED FROM JUST WEST OF BATON
ROUGE TO NEAR HOUMA AT 22Z...IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTH THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING...THEN THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE AREA WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON.
STRONG DYNAMICS...RAPIDLY INCREASING MOISTURE...MODERATE
INSTABILITY...AND STRONG SHEAR WILL REMAIN SUPPORTIVE OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL THROUGH WEDNESDAY
MORNING. THE MODERATE RISK MEANS THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR
SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER...OR MORE WIDESPREAD COVERAGE OF STRONG
DAMAGING WINDS. THOSE AT GREATEST RISK...IN TEMPORARY TRAILERS OR
OTHER UNSECURED STRUCTURES...SHOULD HAVE STURDY SHELTER OR
PERMANENT HOME AVAILABLE IN CASE A WARNING IS ISSUED OR SEVERE
WEATHER SUDDENLY DEVELOPS. NEIGHBORS AND FAMILY MEMBERS SHOULD
CHECK ON THOSE THAT MIGHT NOT HAVE MEANS TO RELOCATE TO A STURDY
SHELTER OR PERMANENT HOME.
HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL IS CAUSE FOR SOME CONCERN BECAUSE OF VERY
HIGH RAINFALL RATES...HOWEVER...THE FAST MOVEMENT OF THE STRONGER
STORMS SHOULD KEEP RAINFALL AMOUNTS FROM GETTING TOO OUT OF HAND.
COULD STILL SEE SOME WIDESPREAD 2 TO 3 INCH AMOUNTS WITH LOCAL QPF
OF 4 TO 5 INCHES. THIS COULD CAUSE SOME FLOODING PROBLEMS IN
POORLY DRAINED AREAS.
AFTER COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE WEDNESDAY...MUCH COLDER AIR WILL MOVE
INTO THE AREA LATE WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES COULD BE
COLD ENOUGH FOR FROST IN SOME NORTHERN LOCATIONS THURSDAY NIGHT.

.MARINE...
UPGRADED SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY TO GALE WARNING FOR THE COASTAL
WATERS EAST OF THE MS RIVER FOR PORTIONS OF WEDNESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THERE COULD BE GUSTS TO GALE FORCE WEST OF THE MS
