1012 AM CDT MON MAR 12 2012

.DISCUSSION...
COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS...WITH HEAVY RAINFALL...HAS CONTINUED TO
DEVELOP ALONG LEFT OVER STALLED OUT CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY...
AND TRAINING OVER PORTIONS OF SOUTH CENTRAL LOUISIANA. FLASH FLOOD
WARNINGS HAVE BEEN ISSUED TO COVER THIS EVENT...WITH INITIAL
REPORTS OF HOUSES BEING FLOODED IN CARENCRO WITH RESCUES UNDER
WAY. ACTIVITY IN THAT AREA WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH BY EARLY
AFTERNOON AS JET STREAK DEPARTS. MEANWHILE...WARM HUMID AIR MASS
WILL REMAIN IN PLACE WITH POP UP SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS
POSSIBLE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE REGION. AGAIN SOME MAY PRODUCE
HEAVY RAINFALL. HAVE UPDATED GRIDS TO REFLEX ONGOING RAINFALL EVENT.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 710 AM CDT MON MAR 12 2012/

DISCUSSION...
FOR 12Z TAF ISSUANCE.

AVIATION...
INTERESTING SET OF TAFS THIS MORNING. ACROSS THE SERN 1/3 OF THE
FORECAST AREA...LOCAL 88DS SHOW NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
CONTINUING WHICH ARE IMPACTING KLFT/KARA. ACROSS THE NWRN 1/3 OF
THE AREA...DROPPING CEILINGS AND POTENTIALLY LOWERING VISIBILITIES
ARE MOVING IN FROM ERN TX. IN BETWEEN...JUST MVFR CEILINGS
PREVAILING. BY SOMETIME THIS AFTERNOON EXPECT ALL SITES TO GO MVFR
THEN LIKELY VFR BUT WITH VCSH AND SRLY WINDS INCREASING TO AROUND
10-12 KNOTS.

FOR THIS MORNING AT KLFT...CARRIED TEMPO THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
15Z AS SW-NE ORIENTED CLUSTER OF SHOWERS AND STORMS SLOWLY LIFTS
NWD. ONLY CARRYING VCSH AT KARA AS OF NOW AS THIS CLUSTER HAS
LIFTED NORTH OF THIS SITE. UP AT KAEX...INITIALIZED AT MVFR BUT
BROUGHT IN IFR CIGS SHORTLY AS STRATUS DECK CONTINUES TO BUILD
EWD/SEWD. BROUGHT IN THE POTENTIAL FOR LIFR CONDITIONS AT KLCH AS
LOCAL EFFECTS COULD ALLOW SOME THICKER FOG TO DEVELOP SHORTLY.
STAYED MORE OPTIMISTIC AT KBPT AS STRATOCU DECK SHOULD PRECLUDE
LOWER STRATUS FROM FORMING AS IT HAS IN CLEARER SKIES FARTHER
NORTH INTO ERN TX. HOWEVER SHOULD THIS STRATOCU DISSIPATE WE COULD
SEE THE LOWER CLOUDS GET INTO THIS SITE THIS MORNING AS WELL.

FOR ALL SITES AFTER SUNSET THIS EVENING...EXPECTING LOW CLOUDS TO
DEVELOP WITH PLENTIFUL LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE GETTING TRAPPED BELOW
INVERSION OFF THE SFC. WENT LOWER ON VISIBILITIES AT USUAL SITES
ALTHOUGH DID NOT GO TOO LOW WITH EITHER CIGS OR VSBYS ATTM TO
ALLOW BETTER REFINEMENT OF THESE FORECASTS AS WE GET CLOSER TO
THAT TIME FRAME.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 643 AM CDT MON MAR 12 2012/

UPDATE...THE AREA OF WEAK AREA OF CONVERGENCE THAT HAD BEEN OVER
FAR SOUTH CENTRAL LA CONTINUES TO RETROGRADE BACK NW WITH SHOWERS
AND STORMS IN TOW. UPPED POPS ACROSS PORTIONS OF SW AND CENTRAL
LA, BUT MAINLY FOR THE MORNING HRS.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 457 AM CDT MON MAR 12 2012/

DISCUSSION...AN UPPER LOW CONTINUES TO LIFT OUT TOWARD THE UPPER
GREAT LAKES THIS MORNING WITH A SHORT WAVE PUSHING ACROSS THE
UPPER GULF COAST/DEEP SOUTH AREA. AS THE SHORT WAVE MOVES ACROSS
THE DEEP SOUTH MOST OF THE CONVECTION IS HEADING EAST WITH IT AND
ACROSS SE LA, HOWEVER ENOUGH INSTABILITY, SLIGHT UPPER DIVERGENCE,
AND DEEP MOISTURE REMAIN AROUND PORTIONS OF THE CWA TO ALLOW SCT
SHRA/TSRA. A WEAKENING FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS ALSO NOTED ALONG THE WESTERN
BORDER OF THE CWA. THROUGH TODAY, AND AT THE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD IN FROM THE ATLANTIC KEEPING THE AREA UNDER A S TO SE
FLOW, BUT WEAK CONVERGENCE IN THE AREA WILL ALLOW FOR A FEW
SHOWERS AND STORMS. BEYOND TODAY, EACH DAY WILL BE A NEAR REPEAT
WITH HIGHS AROUND 80 AND LOWS AROUND 60 TO 65 WITH A FEW MAINLY
AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND STORMS AS THE AREA REMAINS UNDER WEAK
RIDGING.

MARINE...A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL EXTEND FROM THE ATLANTIC
ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH AND NORTH GULF COAST THROUGH THE NEXT
SEVERAL DAYS. THIS WILL KEEP THE COASTAL WATERS UNDER A SOUTH TO
SOUTHEAST FLOW AND UNDER SCA CRITERIA.
