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.

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 Mar 21, 7:07 PM CDT, 3 hours 18 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 21, 7:07 PM CDT, 3 hours 18 minutes before

National Weather Service Shreveport LA
707 PM CDT Mon Mar 21 2022

.AVIATION...
For the 22/00z TAFs, scattered showers are already widespread
across much of East Texas and into Western Louisiana. However,
convection is expected to increase in coverage and intensity as a
line of strong to severe thunderstorms develops and moves into the
area from the west beginning around 22/03z-22/04z. The storms are
expected to stall after midnight local time along a line generally
from KLFK, to KSHV, to KADF. After 22/12z, the storms will begin
to move eastward again and into Northeast and North Central
Louisiana. The thunderstorms should gradually end from west to
east as a cold front moves across the region, and should end at
KMLU by 22/19z. Southeast winds remain quite gusty and strong
winds just above the surface may result in some LLWS during the
night. After the frontal passage Tuesday, ceilings should lift
into the VFR range, but westerly and southwesterly winds will
increase to between 12 and 20 kts with a few gusts between 25 and
30 kts late in the period.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 354 PM CDT Mon Mar 21 2022/

SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Tuesday Night/

An increasingly active short-term forecast period is in store for
the entire region, especially over the next 24 hours with the full
spectrum of severe weather threats on the table.

Thunderstorm initiation has already begun over some parts of the
region, but these storms generally remain isolated and sub-severe.
However, that is expected to change over the next several hours as
an increasingly unstable atmosphere just to our south and west
over central and north Texas gradually expands eastward along an
advancing warm front that will usher in some very warm and moist
air across our western zones early this evening. Looking aloft,
water vapor imagery indicates the closed upper low and associated
trough now entering west Texas with a NE trajectory toward the
panhandle and eventually into western Oklahoma. Out ahead of it,
rapid large scale ascent in the increasingly unstable environment
over the eastern half of Texas will promote deep convection and
upscale growth of thunderstorms through late this afternoon into
the evening and overnight hours. Impressive bulk shear profiles
will easily support supercells in the warm sector, which aligns
well with SPC's Moderate and Enhanced Risk areas that extend into
much of East Texas and NW Louisiana in the current Day 1 outlook.
These areas will be most favorable for supercell development and
for sustaining those upstream that are already developing out to
our west. Large hail, damaging wind gusts, and tornadoes are all
in the mix through this evening and overnight, especially in the
Moderate and Enhanced Risk areas with more isolated development
possible farther north and east.

As the evening evolves and we get closer to midnight, the threat
of discrete storms will begin to decrease overall as storms begin
to cluster and congeal into a linear complex that is expected to
shift into our eastern zones through Tuesday morning. By this
time, the threat will expand to include heavy rainfall and flash
flooding in addition to the still ongoing threats mentioned above.
An axis of 3-6 inches of rainfall still appears to be possible
from Deep East Texas northeastward into parts of NW Louisiana and
SW Arkansas through Tuesday morning and possibly extending into
the afternoon. Thus, the Flash Flood Watch remains in effect for
much of the region through late afternoon on Tuesday. Additional
heating during the late morning and into the afternoon will serve
to reinvigorate the severe threat across our SE zones with all
threats still in play along and east of a line generally from near
Toledo Bend Country to El Dorado, Arkansas.

By late Tuesday afternoon into early evening, the severe threat
along with the flash flooding threat will be winding down across
our region as the cold front advances east toward the MS River.
Expect just some lingering showers to remain possible in our far
eastern and northern zones during the early evening before dry
conditions return areawide overnight.

As far as temperatures are concerned, cold air advection won't
really arrive until Tuesday night so expect another warm day on
Tuesday with highs mainly in the upper 60s to lower 70s despite
the widespread cloud cover and convection. As the cold front
finally clears the region on Tuesday night, expect overnight lows
to drop into the 40s areawide. Windy conditions will also persist
ahead of and behind the cold front so have maintained the current
Wind Advisory through early Tuesday morning with additional wind
headlines possible thereafter.

/19/

LONG TERM.../Wednesday through Monday/

The large upper trough and accompanying closed low over the nation's
midsection, the remnant closed low now over Ern NM, will remain the
dominant feature on the weather map to start the long term period
Wednesday, with another attendant trough progged to round the base
of the low across the Srn Plains during the day. While wrap-around
stratocu will round the base of the broad low and thus maintain
cooler than normal temps, this next shortwave trough should result
in additional mid level cigs Wednesday night, with a second
shortwave on its heels rounding the low during the day Thursday and
reinforcing these cigs in place. The effects of the trough will
begin to weaken across the area Thursday night as it begins to pull
E away from the region into the OH/TN Vallies and SE CONUS, with a
dry NW flow expected over the area Friday through the upcoming
weekend. A slow warming trend will commence Friday with better
insolation and weak sfc ridging building SE into ECntrl TX.

The medium range progs are in agreement with a sfc trough shifting S
through the region Friday night, in associated with another
progressive trough that will drop SE through the Mid MS and into the
TN Vallies through Saturday morning. With the lack of any Gulf
inflow ahead of this next sfc trough, dry conditions will persist,
with little or no sensible change expected to temps or dewpoints in
its wake. Near normal and pleasant temps are expected Saturday as
secondary sfc ridging builds SE into the region, before a Srly low
level return flow resumes on the backside of this feature Sunday as
it shifts into the Lower MS Valley and NCntrl Gulf. A more
pronounced warming trend will resume Sunday into early next week
with above normal temps returning. Given the considerable spread in
the models with the overall synoptic pattern at the very end of the
long term period, have maintained dry conditions areawide until
better consistency can be reached.
