.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 520 AM CST SAT DEC 29 2012/

DISCUSSION...
UPDATED FOR AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.  14/MM

AVIATION...
MVFR STRATUS DECK PERSISTS OVER THE TERMINALS EARLY THIS MORNING.
SATELLITE LOOP SHOWS THIS CLOUD COVER ERODING FROM THE WEST OVER
WESTERN LA. EXPECT CEILINGS TO GRADUALLY IMPROVE TO AROUND 2500 FT
THEN CLEAR BY LATE MORNING. HAVE GONE WITH THE SLOWEST GUIDANCE
WITH CLEARING TRENDS...GENERALLY CLEARING AT KBTR/KMCB 15-16Z AND
REMAINDER OF TERMINALS 16-18Z. VFR CONDITIONS AFTER 18Z. NORTHWEST
WINDS 10-15 KTS WITH GUSTS 15-25 KTS EXPECTED TODAY. WINDS WILL
BECOME NORTH AND DECOUPLE TO 5-10 KTS AROUND SUNSET. 14/MM

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 407 AM CST SAT DEC 29 2012/

SHORT TERM...
A COLD WEEKEND IN STORE WITH FREEZING TEMPS OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.
HAVE OPTED TO KEEP A HARD FREEZE WARNING OFF THE TABLE FOR NOW IN
LIEU OF TWO REASONS. ONE IS WIND SPEEDS...EVENTHOUGH WIND SPEEDS
ARE EXPECTED TO BE VERY LOW TO NIL TONIGHT...EVEN THE MOST GENTLE BREEZE
WILL CAUSE RELATIVELY WARMER TEMPS TO BE MIXED DOWN FROM THE VERY
LOW INVERSION LEVEL. THE SECOND REASON IS SUGGESTED LOWEST TEMPS
OF ONLY 26 DEGREES FOR A BRIEF TIME AROUND SUNRISE. HARD FREEZE
CONDITIONS HAVE TEMPERATURE AND AMOUNT OF TIME TO SATISFY. SEVERAL
LOCATIONS MAY REACH 26 DEGREES BUT SHOULD NOT STAY AT THAT LEVEL
MORE THAN AN HOUR. THE SOUTH SHORE CONDITIONS ARE A LITTLE
DIFFERENT. WINDS ON THE LAKES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN RATHER HIGH
TONIGHT CAUSING A WELL MIXED BOUNARY LAYER AND WARMER WATER TEMPS
TO HELP MOST IF NOT ALL SOUTH SHORE LOCATIONS REMAIN ABOVE
FREEZING. THE ONLY AREAS THAT WILL HAVE A POSSIBILITY OF SEEING
FREEZING TEMPS WILL BE INTERIOR SECTIONS OF THE SOUTH SHORE. BUT
CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO ISSUE A FREEZE WARNING ATTM.

LONG TERM...
THE NEXT SYSTEM STARTS TO AFFECT THE AREA TUESDAY AS CLOUDS AND
RAIN BEGIN TO MOVE IN ALONG ANOTHER COLD FRONT. THIS FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO SLOW AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA AND INTO THE
NORTHERN GULF. OVERRUNNING RAINS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE FRONT
WILL FALL THROUGH A SHALLOW COLD AIR MASS KEEPING THINGS VERY COLD
AND WET TUES NIGHT THROUGH EARLY THU MORNING. SIMPLY NASTY FOR THE
START TO THE NEW YEAR. CEILINGS LOOK TO BE ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR
THE MIDNIGHT NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS. SOME LOCATIONS LIKE
BATON ROUGE...MCCOMB...AND SLIDELL MAY SEE CLOUD DECKS AT AROUND
1500 FEET WHILE LOCATIONS SOUTH OF THE LAKES MAY SEE DECKS AROUND
4K TO 6K FEET. THIS IS STILL A LITTLE WAYS OUT TO GIVE VERY GOOD
CLOUD HEIGHT CONDITIONS BUT ALL AREAS SHOULD START TO SEE SOME CLOUDINESS.

MARINE...
MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW OCCURRING ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS TONIGHT
IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT WHICH CROSSED THIS WATERS LAST
EVENING. WINDS RUNNING 20-25 KTS OVER THE LAKES AND OFFSHORE WATERS.
EXPECTING WINDS TO DIMINISH BELOW 20 KTS OVER LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN AND
LAKE MAUREPAS AROUND MID MORNING. WILL KEEP SCA GOING FOR ALL WATERS
UNTIL 15Z AND LOWER IT FOR THE TWO LAKES THEREAFTER. WILL KEEP SCA
GOING FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE MARINE WATERS UNTIL 12Z SUNDAY. A
SLIGHT LULL IN THE WINDS IS EXPECTED THIS AFTN BUT WINDS WILL PICK
UP AGAIN THIS EVENING AS COLD AIRMASS SETTLES OVER THE WATERS
SUPPORTING THE CONTINUATION OF THE SCA. WINDS WILL SUBSIDE TO 5-15
KTS AND VEER TO THE EAST THEN SOUTHEAST SUNDAY AFTN/SUNDAY NIGHT AS
SFC HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVER THEN EAST OF THE WATERS. ONSHORE FLOW
WILL DEVELOP BY MONDAY IN RESPONSE TO THE NEXT DIGGING UPPER TROUGH
OVER THE ROCKIES. CAUTION FLAGS MAY BE NEEDED OVER THE WATERS BY
MONDAY NIGHT AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS. THE NEXT COLD FRONT
WILL CROSS THE WATERS LATE ON NEW YEARS DAY. SCEC/SCA CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT LASTING THROUGH LATE NEXT WEEK AS
MODERATE OFFSHORE FLOW DEVELOPS.  14/MM
