Thunderstorms and Tornadoes that visited northwest Louisiana during the past week skipped Red River parish for the most part.  There were only minor reports of damage. 

Despite some folks reporting heavy rainfall in a short time, only a few instances of minor flooding was reported.  Just to the north in Bienville parish Layfield Road was reported closed.  It was washed out by rushing waters.

And there were a few reports of trees down and other minor damage.  For the most part all Red River got was rain, and lots of it.

Late in 2019 the National Weather Service issued a graphic map of northwest Louisiana showing where about 40 tornadoes had touched down during the year.  Only one parish, Red River, did not see a single tornado in 2019.
