What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Shreveport, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Mar 10, 9:54 PM CST, 3 hours 47 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 10, 9:54 PM CST, 3 hours 47 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
954 PM CST SAT MAR 10 2012

.DISCUSSION...
RADAR IMAGERY INDICATES THAT OUR FIRST WAVE OF SHRA CONTINUES TO
SPREAD ACROSS EXTREME ERN TX AND INTO WRN LA ATTM...IN
ASSOCIATION WITH THE INITIAL SHORTWAVE THAT IS EJECTING NE ACROSS
THE REGION AHEAD OF THE NM CLOSED LOW. STILL SOME QUESTION AS TO
HOW FAR E THIS RAIN WILL MAKE IT...AS IT ENCOUNTERS AN
INCREASINGLY DRIER AIR MASS IN PLACE...AND BECOMES MORE REMOVED
FROM THE BETTER LARGE SCALE FORCING/DIFFLUENCE IN PLACE ACROSS E
TX/SE OK/EXTREME SW AR/NW LA. DRIER AIR ALOFT INDICATED IN THE
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY HAS BEGUN ENTRAINING NE ACROSS N AND ECNTRL TX
THIS EVENING...HENCE THE DIMINISHING AREAL COVERAGE OF THE SHRA
FARTHER W OVER THESE AREAS. HOWEVER...SHORT TERM PROGS DO
INDICATE ADDITIONAL SCT/NUMEROUS AREAS OF SHRA WITH POSSIBLY
ISOLATED TSRA REDEVELOPING OVERNIGHT ACROSS N AND NE TX...AS A
40-50KT SRLY LLJ DEVELOPS AND FEEDS HIGHER THETA-E AIR N ACROSS
THIS DIFFLUENT REGION.

THE CURRENT POP FORECAST LOOKS GOOD...BUT DID MAKE SOME MINOR
ADJUSTMENTS FARTHER E AS POPS BEGIN TO TAPER IN RESPONSE TO THE
DRIER AIR/LACK OF LARGE SCALE FORCING...AND ALSO TONED DOWN
THUNDER MENTION AS WELL...AS INSTABILITY ALOFT REMAINS WEAK PER
THE 00Z KSHV/KFWD RAOBS. ALSO MADE SOME MINOR DOWNWARD ADJUSTMENTS
TO MIN TEMPS ACROSS E TX...WITH SOME LOCALES ALREADY
REACHING/FALLING BELOW THE ORIGINAL FORECAST MINS. HOWEVER...TEMPS
SHOULD BEGIN TO SLOWLY CLIMB LATE...AS WARMER AIR ALOFT IS
TRANSPORTED DOWNWARD VIA PRECIPITATION...AND AS A WARM FRONT
DEVELOPS ALONG THE SE TX/SW LA COAST...AND BEGINS TO DRIFT N BY
DAYBREAK.

SVR THREAT SUNDAY CERTAINLY LOOKS JUSTIFIED GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF
THE LOW AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR...AS THE NM CLOSED LOW BEGINS TO LIFT
NE ACROSS THE OK/TX PANHANDLE REGION...AND TAKE ON A NEGATIVE TILT
DURING THE AFTERNOON. WARM FRONT SHOULD RAPIDLY MIX N ACROSS E
TX/N LA THROUGH MIDDAY...AND INTO SE OK/SW AR BY EARLY/MID
AFTERNOON. A DEVELOPING SFC TROUGH NEAR THE I-35 CORRIDOR OF
NCNTRL TX BY DAYBREAK SUNDAY SHOULD PUSH E INTO E TX BY EARLY
AFTERNOON...WITH CONVECTION WIDESPREAD AND THE THREAT OF HEAVY
RAINFALL ENHANCED GIVEN THE STRONG MOISTURE CONVERGENCE ALONG THE
BOUNDARY. WHILE LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY MAY BE HAMPERED BY CLOUD
COVER/RAIN DURING THE DAY...THE EXTENT OF THE SHEAR PROFILES
SHOULD COMPENSATE...ESPECIALLY AS 0-3KM HELICITIES INCREASE TO
250-350+ M2/S2 WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR/JUST N OF THE FRONT.
FORTUNATELY...THE HEAVY RAIN THREAT SHOULD NOT BE PROLONGED OR
EXCESSIVE...AS MUCH DRIER AIR IS ENTRAINED NE ALONG/JUST AHEAD OF
THE TROUGH AXIS. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THOUGH THE THE PROGS ARE
WASHING THE SFC TROUGH OUT DURING THE AFTERNOON OVER FAR WRN AR
INTO NE TX...WHICH COULD FOCUS A PERIOD OF TRAINING OVER THESE
AREAS BEFORE THE TROUGH KICKS NE. FORTUNATELY...THESE AREAS SHOULD
BE ABLE TO HANDLE A BOUT OF HEAVY RAINFALL MORESO THAN AREAS
FARTHER S...WHICH HAVE OBSERVED MORE EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS. 1-2" WITH
ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS STILL LOOKS FEASIBLE SUNDAY MAINLY OVER NE
TX/SE OK/SW AR/EXTREME NW LA. THE SVR/HEAVY RAINFALL THREAT SHOULD
DIMINISH SUNDAY EVENING...AS THE BEST FORCING QUICKLY SHIFTS NE
INTO THE MID-SOUTH REGION.

ZONE UPDATE ALREADY OUT...GRIDS WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY.

.AVIATION...
A STRONG UPPER-LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO MOVE
NORTHEAST FROM NEW MEXICO ACROSS TEXAS...TO A LOCATION OVER THE
PLAINS STATES BY SUNDAY EVENING. AS MOISTURE RETURNS AHEAD OF THE
LOW...CIGS ARE FORECAST TO DETERIORATE TO IFR OVERNIGHT ACROSS
TXK/TYR/GGG/LFK/SHV. CIGS TO REMAIN MVFR ACROSS MLU/ELD.
PRECIPITATION TO SPREAD EAST TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY...WITH TSRA
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE AFTER 11/18Z. EAST WINDS 5 TO 10 KNOTS TO BECOME
SOUTHEAST AND SOUTH TONIGHT...INCREASING TO 10 TO 15 KNOTS ON SUNDAY.
