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.

...New AVIATION...
.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Thursday night)
Issued at 310 PM CST Tue Jan 24 2023
All the main weather during this period will occur from now
through the evening hours as a potent surface low moves northeast
across the forecast area from southeast Texas to east central
Louisiana.
South of the surface low the warm sector will have a chance to
move inland, probably getting up to the I-10 corridor. These
locations will have a potential to see supercell rotating
thunderstorms producing tornadoes, then see a squall line to
produce damaging wind gusts. Also, in the warm sector strong
gradient winds will occur as mixing will allow the strong low
level jet come down to the surface. We have already seen gradient
wind gusts to 55 mph at KBPT. High rainfall rates will occur which
may cause some quick street flooding.
As the low lifts off to the northeast, a cold front will move down
in behind it bringing northwest wind and cooler and drier air,
although low level cloudiness will likely take awhile to scatter
out on Wednesday.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through next Monday)
Issued at 310 PM CST Tue Jan 24 2023
High pressure will be across the northern gulf coast during Friday
morning. A quite chilly air mass will have settled in and a light
freeze may occur at most locations north of Interstate 10.
The ridge will shift east through Friday and into weekend which will
start the return flow by Friday afternoon. Low pressure is expected
to develop in the southern plains Saturday which will increase the
southeast flow locally. A few showers will also be possible late
Saturday.
The next cold front will move through the region Sunday with showers
and storms possible. High moisture lvls may allow for another round
of heavy rainfall.
&&
.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 531 PM CST Tue Jan 24 2023
A low pressure system moving across S LA this evening will
continue to produce widespread thunderstorms capable of damaging
winds, tornadoes, frequent lightning, and torrential downpours.
These storms will move into ARA/LFT through the next hour or so,
while exiting LCH through the same time frame. Conditions will
then begin to improve at ARA/LFT through roughly the 8-10PM time
frame. Thereafter, MVFR ceilings and breezy west winds will
continue area-wide overnight, gradually relaxing as we head
towards sunrise. Similarly, tomorrow looks fairly cloudy and
breezy, with clouds gradually clearing/lifting by the afternoon.

.MARINE...
Issued at 310 PM CST Tue Jan 24 2023
A surface low will move just north of the coastal waters this
evening. Strong south winds will occur ahead of it with gusts over
gale force, along with showers and thunderstorms, some capable of
producing water spouts. Also, the tides will run 2 to 3 feet above
normal that will produce some coastal flooding during high tide
this evening.
As the surface low moves off to the northeast overnight, a cold
front will move through the coastal waters with strong northwest
winds developing keeping a small craft advisory going after the
gale warning expires.
Winds will decrease during Wednesday as high pressure builds over
the region. An onshore flow will redevelop by the weekend as the
high pushes east of the area.
