A large upper trough dug through the Southern Plains during the afternoon and overnight hours on April 12th-13th, allowing the dry line to mix east into Central Texas. Large scale forcing increased along the dry line across Central Texas during the late afternoon through the evening, as these storms tapped moderate instability and increasing wind shear ahead of this system. In fact, isolated showers and a few thunderstorms developed during the mid and late afternoon across portions of Northeast Louisiana, with one storm spawning a brief tornado over Northeast Ouachita Parish near the Swartz community. These storms over Central Texas eventually developed in a quasi-linear convection system (QLCS), as they became severe and accelerated east across much of East Texas and North Louisiana during the evening through the early morning hours of the 12th-13th. Instances of damaging winds were reported from these storms, downing numerous trees and power lines, and even spawning isolated tornadoes as well. While these storms exited the region prior to daybreak on the 13th, additional showers and thunderstorms developed along the associated cold front across East Texas during the mid and late morning of the 13th, before spreading into North Louisiana during the peak heating of the afternoon. Thus, adequate instability developed such that some of these storms again became severe, producing instances of damaging winds over portions of North Louisiana and an isolated tornado over Eastern Winn/Western Caldwell Parishes. These storms finally exited North Louisiana during the late afternoon hours of the 13th.

Location: FRIZZELL
Tornado F-scale: EF1
Property damage: 50.00K
Crop damage: 0.00K
Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

A brief EF-1 tornado with estimated maximum winds near 110 mph touched down in the Swartz community near Woodmont Drive, where it tracked just east of due north for around two and a half miles over a largely residential area. Direct damage was primarily to trees, although many structures and homes were damaged due to falling trees and tree limbs. The tree damage was near the EF-0 to EF-1 threshold for most of the track, with many more uproots and trunk snaps. However, near the end of the tornado along and north of Highway 139, the level of tree damage indicated a strengthening of the tornado, in particular along Trichel Lane. It was near the end of this road that approximately one hundred trees were snapped and uprooted, warranting a peak wind speed estimate of 110 mph, which is a high-end EF-1 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale. Unfortunately, one of these trees destroyed a mobile home and a resident inside was injured, but not critically.

The tornado then snapped tree limbs before partially removing the roofs of four metal farm buildings along Sentell Road. The tornado then crossed the Red River into Bossier Parish. It should be noted that while the tornado was an EF-0 in Caddo Parish, it did intensify into an EF-1 with estimated maximum winds around 110 mph after it entered Bossier Parish.

A band of damaging straight line winds estimated between 75-85 mph developed along the leading edge of a quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) across a portion of the Southern Hills neighborhood of South Shreveport, from the parent storm that would later spawn an EF-0 tornado over Southeast Shreveport and South Bossier City only 6-15 minutes later. Multiple large trees were snapped and uprooted in an area bounded by Bert Kouns Industrial loop to the south, Walker Road to the west, Highway 3132 to the north, and Kingston Road to the east. Trees fell on at least four homes in this area, with numerous large limbs snapped as well. A large portion of a metal roof was peeled off of the back of a used car company on Mackey Lane, with numerous shingles removed off of a business in the South Park Village. The front facade of another adjacent business in South Park Village was also blown into the parking lot. All of the snapped and uprooted trees throughout Southern Hills as well as the roof/facade damage in South Park Village were all blown/lying in a north-northeast direction, indicative of straight line winds.

The is a continuation of the Northeast Winn Parish tornado. This tornado intensified to an EF-2 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale with estimated maximum winds around 115 mph shortly after entering Western Caldwell Parish in an area that remained inaccessible by vehicle. However, the Fort Polk dopplar radar continued to indicate a tornadic debris signature as the tornado tracked across Childress Road where the strongest winds were observed. Numerous trees were snapped and uprooted, with a couple falling onto homes in this area. Remarkedly, most of the homes avoided significant damage, as the densely wooded area shielded the higher winds from these homes. The tornado continued northeast across Highway 126 and Wiles Road, where numerous trees were snapped and uprooted. Again, several homes were protected from these trees with little if any damage, where the tornado reached its widest point along Wiles Road and as it crossed Highway 4 west of Columbia. Numerous trees were uprooted in front of a residence opposite of the intersection of Highway 3239, with the tornado continuing northeast and finally lifting northwest of Columbia before reaching Highway 165 between Columbia and Riverton. These storms then transitioned into a damaging straight line wind event as several large tree limbs were snapped along both sides of Highway 165, with additional straight line wind damage noted along Highway 133 in the Hebert community along the Caldwell/Richland Parish line. Several trees were uprooted and large limbs were snapped in this area. However, the tree debris here all were lying in a southeasterly direction. In all, this tornado remained on the ground for approximately 19.3 miles from Northwest Winn into Central Caldwell Parish.

Personnel from Barksdale Air Force Base relayed that trees were uprooted and that large tree branches were broken via pictures as the tornado crossed the southern and eastern forested portions of the base.
