Flash Flood Watch 4, NWS Lake Charles, LA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAKE CHARLES LA
305 PM CDT WED SEP 3 2008

.DISCUSSION...
VERY BUSY AFTERNOON INDEED AS 16 TORNADO WARNINGS HAVE BEEN
ISSUED THUS FAR AND IT ISNT EVEN 3 PM YET. TROPICAL DEPRESSION
GUSTAV FORECAST BY GFS MODEL TO MOVE RAPIDLY NORTH AND EAST AS
IT GETS PICKED UP BY AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ACROSS THE CENTRAL
PLAINS. THIS WILL ALLOW ALLOW FOR A DISCONNECTION OF THE TROPICAL
MOISTURE THAT HAS PLAGUED OUR AREA TODAY. EVEN THOUGH GUSTAV IS
WELL NORTH...WE HAVE HAD THE CONNECTION FROM THE GULF FEED GUSTAV.

THE GUSTAV TROPICAL CONNECTION GETS BROKEN ON THURSDAY AND
THEREFORE TWO THINGS ARE GOING TO OCCUR. DRY AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE
AREA AS A COOL FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE REGION. THE SECOND ITEM IS THAT
SIGNIFICANT RAINS WILL END FOR THE AREA.

THE AREA HAS BEEN BATTERED BY HEAVY RAINS...TORNADOES...AND HIGH WINDS.
THE REST OF THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND WILL ALLOW FOR RECOVERY EFFORTS.

FOR NEXT WEEK...A REINFORCING COOL FRONT WILL PUSH DOWN INTO THE AREA
ON TUESDAY ALLOW FOR DRY AND LESS HUMID WEATHER TO CONTINUE. THAT
IS ALSO GREAT NEWS BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN VERY HUMID WHICH IS USALLY
THE CASE WITH HURRICANES AND TROPICAL STORMS. THUS KIND OF RELIEF
IS HIGH WELCOME.

&&

.AVIATION...
MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL IN EVENING SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS...OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED AFTER 7 PM
TONIGHT. EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS FOR THURSDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
SEAS AND WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES
WITH THE ABSENCE OF GUSTAV.
