BOUNDARY THAT WAS NEAR THE LOUISIANA COAST EARLIER HAS LIFTED

UPPER FLOW. CONVECTION SHOULD WIND DOWN THIS EVENING AS WE LOSE
SURFACE HEATING. MAY BE SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS IMMEDIATELY BEHIND
THE FRONT THROUGH THURSDAY...BUT THIS SHOULD BE MAINLY OVER THE
COASTAL WATERS AND POSSIBLY LOWER PLAQUEMINES PARISH. IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT RAIN COULD SPREAD A LITTLE FURTHER NORTHWEST ON
FRIDAY AS A STRONG IMPULSE MOVES THROUGH THE BASE OF THE TROF.

MONITORING POTENTIAL FOR MINOR COASTAL FLOODING. HAD SOME MINOR
ISSUES RIGHT AT HIGH TIDE AT MIDDAY NEAR WAVELAND. WITH FRONTAL
BOUNDARY REACHING THAT AREA OVERNIGHT...WINDS SHOULD SHIFT FROM
SOUTHEAST TO NORTH. THIS WILL QUIT PUSHING WATER INTO BAY ST.
LOUIS...SO WILL NOT ISSUE COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY AT THIS TIME.

TEMPERATURES ABOUT 5-10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT
INTO FRIDAY. 35

&&
