AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
641 AM CDT SUN JUL 25 2010

.AVIATION...
REMNANTS OF BONNIE CONTINUE TO MOVE SLOWLY NW ACROSS THE AREA THIS
MORNING. BANDS OF CONVECTION DEVELOPED A FEW HOURS AGO AND
CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA. CIGS AND VSBYS HAVE BEEN DIPPING
TO IFR WITH THE STRONGER STORMS. THIS ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO DRIFT
TO THE NW AND WILL GIVE ALL SITES A FEW HOURS OF TEMPO SHRA/TSRA.
SUSPECT THAT THERE WILL ALSO BE A FEW HOURS OF MVFR CIGS THROUGH
EARLY AFTERNOON MOST AREAS. MORE SCT PRECIPITATION MAY DEVELOP
THIS AFTERNOON AS DEEP SE FLOW DEVELOPS BEHIND THE LOW. ALL SITES
WILL GET A FEW MORE HOURS OF PRECIP AT THAT TIME. WINDS SHOULD
DIMINISH TO JUST A FEW KNOTS THIS EVENING. MORE PRECIP IS POSSIBLE
TOWARD THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD. GIVEN UNCERTAINITY WILL OMIT
FROM FORECAST FOR NOW.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 508 AM CDT SUN JUL 25 2010/

SHORT TERM...
THE REMNANTS OF BONNIE CONTINUE TO MOVE SLOWLY NORTH NORTHWEST
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA EARLY THIS MORNING. THE
CIRCULATION AROUND THE LOW IS EVIDENT ON THE 88D RETURNS...AND
HAVE RECENTLY BECOME VERY CONCERNED ABOUT ISOLATED ROTATING STORMS
AND SLOW MOVING DOWNPOURS NEAR THE REMNANT LOW CENTER SOUTH OF
LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN. THE AMOUNT OF CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING AND
STRONG CELL ROTATION IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL TROPICAL VARIETY WITH 60
KNOTS OR SHEAR DETECTED EARLIER WITH THE STORM THAT PROMPTED THE
FIRST TORNADO WARNING NEAR LAFITTE LA.

EXPECT THERE TO BE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
TODAY. THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH CLOUDINESS TODAY TO KEEP TEMPS FROM
CLIMBING OUT OF THE LOWER 90S. A PERSISTENT S TO SE FLOW IS
EXPECTED THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WHICH WILL KEEP PWAT VALUES ABOVE
2.25 INCHES. WILL LIKELY SEE A FAIR AMOUNT OF CONVECTION DEVELOP
OFFSHORE TONIGHT AND THEN MOVE INLAND TOMORROW. WILL NEED PRECIP
CHANCES SIMILAR TO TODAY. IT WILL BE JUST A TAD DRIER ON TUESDAY
SO WILL BACK OFF PRECIP CHANCES BY 10 TO 20 PERCENT MOST AREAS.
HAVE USED A BLEND OF GUIDANCE TEMPS DURING THE PERIOD. READINGS
WILL BE SEASONABLE. /WK

LONG TERM...
DEEPER MOISTURE ON THE PERIPHERY OF THE DEEPER LAYER HIGH TO THE
NORTHEAST MAY REMAIN OVER THE FORECAST AREA ON WEDNESDAY...BUT
THIS MOISTURE SHOULD DECREASE AND GET SUPPRESSED BY THE BUILDING
MID LEVEL HIGH THURSDAY INTO SATURDAY. STAYED CLOSE TO THE MEX
POPS WEDNESDAY...THEN TRENDED DRIER THAN GUIDANCE FRIDAY INTO THE
WEEKEND GIVEN THE VERY LOW QPF AMOUNTS...ESPECIALLY SHOWN BY THE
ECMWF. THIS WILL LEAD TO HOT TEMPERATURES RETURNING TO THE MID 90S
FOR HIGHS THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY ALONG WITH HEAT INDICES OF 105
TO 110 DEGREES. 22/TD

AVIATION...MAIN FORECAST PROBLEM WILL BE TIMING OF SHRA/TSRA AND
ASSOCIATED IFR CONDITIONS TODAY. AREAS OF PREVAILING MVFR CIGS AND
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHRA/TSRA DUE TO THE DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE
IN PLACE WILL CONTINUE THIS MORNING. TAFS WILL BE UPDATED AS
NEEDED TO INCLUDE PREVAILING AND TEMPO SHRA/TSRA.

MARINE...THE REMNANTS OF BONNIE MADE LANDFALL OVER SOUTHEASTERN LA
WITH LITTLE FANFARE. THIS HAS STILL LED TO WINDS OF 20 TO 25 KTS
OVERNIGHT WITH WINDS LIKELY REMAIN IN A 15-20 KNOT THROUGH MID
MORNING BUT SHOULD DROP OFF NICELY THIS AFTN. MODERATE ONSHORE FLOW
WILL LIKELY PERSIST THROUGH THE NEXT 48-60 HRS AND THIS WILL HAVE
THE BIGGEST EFFECT ON TIDES. CURRENTLY EAST OF THE MS RIVER TIDES
HAVE BEEN RUNNING ABOUT 2 FT ABV NORMAL AND THIS IS LEADING TO MINOR
COASTAL FLOODING WITH TIDES EXPECTED TO REMAIN AROUND 1.5-2 FT ABV
NORMAL THROUGH TODAY AND TONIGHT A COASTAL FLOOD ADV WILL BE IN
EFFECT FOR THE SHORES EAST OF THE MS. TIDES WILL START TO COME BACK
TO NEAR NORMAL LVLS BY TUE AS ONSHORE WINDS REALLY BEGIN TO DROP
OFF. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD BACK IN AROUND THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK
AND THIS SHOULD LEAD TO MUCH QUIETER CONDITIONS RETURNING. /CAB/
