Neither touched down but just as easily could have!

I have been through a twister ( F2-3  ) before. It was a few years back.So I know what it is like to go through one. We were spared major damage but some other properties wernt so lucky.

No. South of me quite a ways. Easter Sunday has a tendency to be bad down this way as far as weather goes. They where talking about that on the news last night.

Up here for the most part our Easters have been bad-weather free. There have been a few exceptions though.

I've heard it's bad in the Baton Rouge area. I'm down in Metairie today.
Stay safe!
