AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
1141 PM CDT SUN MAR 11 2012

.AVIATION...
AN AREA OF RAIN AND EMBEDDED CONVECTION NOW OVER THE WESTERN
SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA CONTINUES TO ADVANCE STEADILY EAST
NORTHEAST. OTHER SHOWERS WERE DEVELOPING ACROSS COASTAL
MISSISSIPPI AND THE ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS. THE STRONGER
CONVECTION FARTHER WEST...TO THE WEST OF THE ATCHAFALAYA
RIVER...IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN IN THE NEXT 1 TO 3 HOURS AS THE BEST
FORCING CONTINUES TO PULL OFF TO THE NORTHEAST AND THE WIND FIELD
AND SHEAR WEAKENS ACROSS THE AREA. IN GENERAL...IFR TO MVFR
CEILINGS WILL BE OBSERVED AT THE TERMINAL SITES OVERNIGHT DUE TO
CEILINGS AND AT TIMES RESTRICTED VISIBILITIES DUE TO THE RAIN.
CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE AFTER DAYBREAK TO MVFR OR VFR. SOME RISK
OF CONVECTION WILL BE IN THE OFFING DURING THE DAY MONDAY. 11

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 918 PM CDT SUN MAR 11 2012/

MARINE...
MARINES FORECAST GRIDS AND PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE A
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY TONIGHT FOR PARTS OF THE OUTER COASTAL
WATERS. BUOY 42040 HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY INDICATING WINDS AROUND
20 KNOTS OR SO AND SEAS AT 7 FEET. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT IS
EXPECTED TO RELAX LATER TONIGHT. 11

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 813 PM CDT SUN MAR 11 2012/

UPDATE...
.SOUNDING DISCUSSION...

NO PROBLEMS WITH THE FLIGHT THIS EVENING. THE SOUNDING SHOWS
MOISTURE CONTINUING TO STREAM INTO THE AREA WITH PW VALUES
CONTINUING AROUND AN INCH AND A QUARTER. OVERALL...THERE IS NOT
MUCH IN THE WAY OF INSTABILITY IN OUR AREA WHICH SHOULD PROHIBIT
ANY SEVERE WEATHER FROM DEVELOPING. THAT SAID...A FEW STRONG
STORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT...ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTHWEST PORTION
OF THE CWA. SOME 30 TO 35 KNOT WINDS IN THE MID LEVELS ASSOCIATED
WITH DRIER AIR AT THAT LEVEL COULD COME DOWN TO THE SURFACE IN
ANY STRONGER STORMS. THOSE WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL WOULD BE THE
BIGGEST CONCERNS...ASSUMING ANY STRONGER STORMS MAKE IT INTO OUR
AREA. WINDS ARE OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST AT THE SURFACE AND OUT OF THE
WEST ALOFT.

98/SO

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 348 PM CDT SUN MAR 11 2012/

SYNOPSIS...
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IS CENTERED OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST WITH
THE RIDGE AXIS EXTENDING SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH THE FLORIDA
PENINSULA. AN UPPER LEVEL LOW IS EJECTING OUT INTO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS OVER THE OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE AND SOUTHWEST KANSAS.

DISCUSSION...
LATEST RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS A BROKEN LINE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS MOVING INTO WESTERN LOUISIANA. THESE STORMS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE STATE TONIGHT. THESE STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS THE EVENING GOES ON AS THE UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT IS MOVING WELL TO THE NORTH...HOWEVER THERE STILL IS A
CHANCE FOR A STRONG STORM TO MAKE IT INTO THE CWA. STRONGER STORMS
ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA...WEST OF
INTERSTATE 55. THE BIGGEST CONCERN WITH ANY STORMS THIS EVENING
WILL BE GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL AS STORMS COULD TRAIN OVER
THE SAME AREAS TONIGHT. THE BOUNDARY WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE
REGION TOMORROW. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL STILL BE A GOOD
BET MONDAY BUT SHOULD TAPER OFF BY MONDAY NIGHT. RAIN CHANCES
MONDAY WILL BE AROUND 50 PERCENT. TUESDAY THE BOUNDARY WILL STILL
INFLUENCE THE FORECAST AS IT COULD POSSIBLY BE THE FOCUS FOR SOME
AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. WILL CARRY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
FOR TUESDAY. THE RIDGE OVER THE EASTERN U.S WILL STRENGTHEN AND
SUPPRESS RAIN CHANCES TO ONLY DIURNAL SLIGHT CHANCE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE
WEEK WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL. USED A BLEND OF GMOS AND RAW GUIDANCE
FOR ALL ELEMENTS. 13/MH

AVIATION...
MAIN CONCERNS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTN IS
MVFR CIGS. CIGS WILL REMAIN AROUND 1500-2500 FT OVER MOST OF THE
TERMINALS BUT FINALLY AROUND 3-6Z THE LOW CLOUDS MAY START TO MIX
OUT WITH MOST SCT MID AND HIGH CLOUDS. THERE COULD BE A FEW SHRA
AND MAYBE A TSRA ACROSS THE NW MAINLY IMPACTING BTR AND MCB DURING
THE EVN HRS. WINDS WILL REMAIN OUT OF THE SE/SSE. /CAB/

MARINE...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN CNTRD OVER THE SERN CONUS FOR
THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. THIS WILL KEEP THE PERSISTENT SERLY TO
ESERLY FLOW IN PLACE THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE WORK WEEK. WINDS
WILL BEGIN TO RELAX SOME AND SHOULD BACK BELOW SCS HEADLINES BY
TOMORROW MORNING. THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE OVER THE OPEN WATERS
EAST OF THE MS DELTA. SEAS WILL ALSO START TO SLOWLY RELAX BUT 4-6
FT SHOULD BE PERSISTENT IN THE OUTER WATERS THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING
BEFORE BACKING DOW TO 3-4 FT BY MID WEEK. /CAB/
