AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAKE CHARLES LA
836 PM CDT FRI SEP 12 2008
.UPDATE...
UPDATED ZONES AND CWF FOR TORNADO WATCH 900...WHICH EXTENDS THE
TORNADO WATCH ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA FOR TONIGHT. 24
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 430 PM CDT FRI SEP 12 2008/
DISCUSSION...AS HAS BEEN THE CASE SINCE HE ENTERED THE GULF OF
MEXICO...IKE HAS REMAINED UNABLE TO DEVELOP A SOLID INNER CORE.
BURSTS OF CONVECTION...AT TIMES QUITE INTENSE...HAVE CONTINUED TO
DEVELOP ON PRIMARILY THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN QUADRANTS...THEN
ROTATE AROUND THE LARGE CIRCULATION...WEAKENING ON THE WESTERN
FLANK. RADAR VELOCITIES IN THESE OUTER BANDS RANGE FROM 90 TO 100
KT AT GREATER THAN 5 KFT. FIRST SIGNIFICANT RAIN BANDS NOW ONSHORE
THE LOUISIANA AND TEXAS COASTLINES.
IN SHORT...THE WORST IS YET TO COME.
NO MAJOR TRACK/INTENSITY/WIND FIELD CHANGES ON THE LATEST NHC
ADVISORY...SO NO CHANGES WERE REQUIRED TO THE HAZARD OR WIND
GRIDS.
THE AMOUNT OF WATER PILING ON THE COAST IN BASICALLY AN EAST
NORTHEAST FLOW HAS BEEN STAGGERING. 9 FEET AT CALCASIEU PASS SOUTH
OF CAMERON THAT HAS ONLY LEVELED OFF RECENTLY AS WE APPROACH
ASTRONOMICAL LOW TIDE. I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT THAT VALUE WILL
CLIMB TO ONCE THE HURRICANE FORCE SOUTHEAST AND SOUTH WINDS
COMMENCE...WHICH UNFORTUNATELY WILL COINCIDE WITH THE HIGH TIDE
LATER THIS EVENING.
AFTER IKE...MODELS ARE STILL IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT IN BRINGING A
FRONT...THE ONE THAT PICKS UP IKE...THROUGH THE AREA EARLY MONDAY.
THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ADDITIONAL 2 PLUS INCHES OF AREAWIDE
RAINFALL...WHICH WOULD OBVIOUSLY EXACERBATE ANY FLOODING BROUGHT
ABOUT BY IKE. ON THE PLUS SIDE...THE FRONT WILL BRING IN COOLER
AND DRIER CONDITIONS.
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE TONIGHT AND TOMORROW.
AVIATION...TROPICAL STORM FORCE WIND GUSTS ARE ALREADY IMPACTING
THE 1-10 CORRIDOR TERMINALS. KAEX NEAR TROPICAL STORM FORCE...AND
WILL BE THERE SHORTLY. CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO DETERIORATE.
MARINE...RECENT GUST OF 75 MPH REPORTED BY MRSL1...MARSH ISLAND.
ANOTHER REPORT CAME IN FROM A PLATFORM 30 SE OF SABINE PASS WITH A
102 MPH WIND GUST. WAVE HEIGHTS CURRENTLY RUNNING AROUND 16-17
FEET WITHIN THE 20 NM ZONES...AND I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHATS GOING
ON BEYOND THERE.
