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.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Shreveport, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Nov 29, 1:34 PM CST, 27 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 29, 1:34 PM CST, 27 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
134 PM CST MON NOV 29 2010

.DISCUSSION...
HAVE DONE A QUICK UPDATE TO INCLUDE THE NEW TORNADO WATCH
753...WHICH IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 03Z FOR ALL OF OUR LOUISIANA
PARISHES...A COUPLE COUNTIES IN SOUTH ARKANSAS AND A HANDFUL OF
COUNTIES IN EAST TEXAS. HAVE ALSO ADJUSTED POP AND WX GRIDS FOR
THIS AFTERNOON BASED ON THE CURRENT RADAR TRENDS...WHICH WILL GIVE
THE GREATEST COVERAGE OF STORMS OVER THE WATCH AREA. SHOWERS AND
STORMS ARE ALSO BEGINNING TO DIE DOWN OVER THE WESTERN EXTENT OF
THE CWFA. OTHERWISE HAVE LEFT THE FORECAST AS IS. UPDATED PRODUCTS
WILL BE SENT SHORTLY. /22/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1019 AM CST MON NOV 29 2010/

DISCUSSION...
HAVE MADE A FEW MINOR UPDATES TO THE FORECAST THIS MORNING.
SURFACE ANALYSIS FOR THIS MORNING CURRENTLY SHOWS THE APPROACHING
COLD FRONT IS LOCATED EASTERN KS SOUTH THROUGH EASTERN OK AND
CONTINUING TO JUST EAST OF THE DFW METROPLEX...CONTINUING
SOUTHWEST. A WARM FRONT IS MOVING NORTH THROUGH THE CWFA
TODAY...AND IS CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER THE SOUTHWESTERN CORNER OF
THE CWFA. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A DEEP TROUGH DIGGING THROUGH
THE PLAINS TOWARD THE FOUR STATE REGION...WHICH IS DRIVING THE
COLD FRONT EASTWARD. RADAR IMAGERY CURRENTLY SHOWS A COUPLE LINES
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE FIRST IS LOCATED FROM NORTH TO
SOUTH DOWN THE CENTER OF THE CWFA THROUGH THE SHREVEPORT AREA. THE
SECOND IS LOCATED OVER THE WESTERN COUNTIES. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
STORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE MORNING...AND
SHOULD INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY AS WE MOVE INTO THE
AFTERNOON AND GAIN A LITTLE BIT OF HEATING. FOR NOW...POPS AND WX
GRIDS LOOK REASONABLE...SO HAVE NOT MADE ANY CHANGES. THERE IS A
POSSIBILITY THAT THE EASTERN HALF TO TWO THIRDS OF THE CWFA COULD
SEE SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING. PLENTY
OF SHEAR IS IN PLACE OVER THE REGION WITH A DECENT LOW LEVEL JET.
THE QUESTIONABLE FACTOR IS HOW MUCH INSTABILITY WILL BE AVAILABLE
TO WORK WITH THIS AFTERNOON AS IT SEEMS RATHER LIMITED. IF THE
AREA IS ABLE TO DESTABILIZE ENOUGH...ESPECIALLY IF ANY BREAKS IN
THE CLOUDS OCCURS...THERE MAY BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO SUPPORT
STORMS. THIS WILL ESPECIALLY BE TRUE FOR LOCATIONS SOUTH OF THE
WARM FRONT. IF THIS OCCURS THEN SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF DAMAGING
WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE. CAN NOT RULE OUT THE POSSIBILITY OF SEEING
A TORNADO OR TWO AS WELL...ESPECIALLY OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN
FRINGES OF THE CWFA. THE MAIN TIMEFRAME OF SEEING ANY SEVERE
STORMS WILL BE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO EARLY THIS EVENING BEFORE
THE FRONT MOVES EAST OUT OF THE CWFA BY AROUND 00-09Z.

REGARDING ANY UPDATES...HAVE MADE A FEW TWEAKS BASED ON
OBSERVATIONAL TRENDS. TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF
THE CWFA HAVE BEEN WARMING SLIGHTLY MORE QUICKLY THAN ORIGINALLY
EXPECTED. THEREFORE HAVE RAISED HIGH TEMPERATURES OVER THESE LOCATIONS
BY A DEGREE OR TWO. ALSO...THE FRONT IS ALREADY THROUGH THE DFW
METROPLEX...WHICH IS SLIGHTLY FURTHER EAST THAN ORIGINALLY
EXPECTED. THEREFORE...HAVE ADJUSTED HOURLY WINDS TO SPEED UP THE
FRONT BY A COUPLE OF HOURS. OTHERWISE ANY CHANGES WERE MINOR.
UPDATED PRODUCTS WILL BE SENT AND POSTED TO THE WEB SHORTLY. /22/

AVIATION...
THROUGH 1800 UTC...COLD FRONT EXTENDS NEAR A KACT-KTRL-KGZL LINE AT
1600 UTC...WITH LINES OF SHRA/TSRA LOCATED ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE
FRONT.  LOW CIGS...AND OCCASIONAL VSBY REDUCTIONS SHOULD KEEP FLIGHT
CATEGORIES TOWARD THE LOWER END OF MVFR TERRITORY.  OCCASIONAL
REDUCTIONS TO IFR CAN BE EXPECTED...ESPECIALLY AROUND SHRA/TSRA.
COLD FRONT SHOULD MOVE TOWARD A KMNT-KTYR-KPSN LINE BY 1800 UTC.

FROM 29/1800-30/1800 UTC...COLD FRONT MAY SLOW AS IT MOVES E ACROSS
THE REGION.  RIGHT NOW...IT LOOKS LIKE THE FRONT SHOULD REACH THE
KTXK...KSHV...AND KLFK LINE BETWEEN 29/2000-30/0000 UTC...THEN KELD
AND KMLU BETWEEN 30/0000-0300 UTC.  SHRA/TSRA SHOULD INCREASE ACROSS
S AR/NE LA AHEAD OF THE FRONT...RESULTING IN FLIGHT CATEGORY
REDUCTIONS TO IFR.  OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION...MVFR CIGS/VSBYS SHOULD
CONTINUE.  FLIGHT CATEGORIES SHOULD IMPROVE IN WAKE OF THE
FRONT...AS DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION.  WINDS WILL BE SE-S
10-15 KTS /GUSTY IN VICINITY OF TSRA/ AHEAD OF THE FRONT...THEN
BECOME W-NW AS THE FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION.  /D. BUTTS/
