AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAKE CHARLES LA
1031 AM CDT SUN OCT 25 2015

.DISCUSSION...
A DEEPENING LOW OFF THE SOUTHEAST TEXAS COAST THIS MORNING HAS
A FEW OFFSHORE PLATFORMS REPORTING WIND GUST TO OR JUST ABOVE 50
KNOTS. THIS LOW WILL MOVE TO THE NORTH THEN NORTHEAST AND FINALLY
ONSHORE IN SOUTH CENTRAL LOUISIANA LATE TODAY. RADAR IS INDICATING
A LARGE RAIN SHIELD OVER SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND MOST OF LOUISIANA
THIS MORNING. RAINFALL TOTALS HAVE AVERAGED AROUND ONE TO TWO
INCHES DURING THIS EVENT SO FAR...BUT ARE EXPECTED TO GO HIGHER
AS THE LOW MERGES WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY NEAR THE
TEXAS/LOUISIANA COAST. MOISTURE WILL THEN RIDE UP AND OVER THIS
BOUNDARY AND THIS IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE HEAVY RAINS IN SOUTHEAST
AND SOUTHERN LOUISIANA TODAY. CURRENT ZONES ARE FINE HAVE NO PLANS
FOR ANY UPDATES.

K. KUYPER

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 656 AM CDT SUN OCT 25 2015/

AVIATION...DEEPENING REMNANT LOW OF PACIFIC STORM PATRICIA OFF
THE CENTRAL TEXAS COAST IS PROGGED OFF THE LOUISIANA COAST OFF
GRAND CHENIER BY SUNDOWN AND IS EXPECTED TO BE JUST SOUTHEAST OF
LFT AND ARA BY THIS TIME MONDAY MORNING.

IFR TO LOW MVFR CIGS WITH PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN FOR THE TERMINALS
TODAY INTO TNITE. VERY STRONG GRADIENT WINDS WILL LIKELY PRODUCE
GUSTS AS HIGH AS 40 KNOTS INTO ARA EARLY THIS EVENING. GUSTS
NEARLY AS HIGH ELSEWHERE AS WINDS MAX OUT BEGINNING LATE
AFTERNOON.

SWEENEY

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 453 AM CDT SUN OCT 25 2015/

DISCUSSION...
THIS MORNING A COLD FRONT BI-SECTING THE FORECAST AREA FROM AEX TO
BPT. THIS FRONT EXTENDS WELL TO THE SOUTH INTO THE WESTERN GULF
WHERE LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO DEEPEN ON THE FRONT. RADAR
CONTINUES TO INDICATE WIDESPREAD LIGHT TO MODERATE RAINS OVER THE
ENTIRE AREA THIS MORNING. SO FAR RAINFALL RATES HAVE BEEN
MANAGEABLE WITH THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL THE PAST 24 HOURS ACTUALLY
OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL LOUISIANA. RECENT SATELLITE AND
RADAR TRENDS INDICATE HEAVIER RAINFALL RATES DEVELOPING IN
JEFFERSON COUNTY AND EXTENDING OFF SHORE FOR SEVERAL MILES AND
THIS ACTIVITY IS LIFTING TO THE NORTH-NORTHEAST.

GUIDANCE IS STILL CONSISTENT IN BRINGING THE GALE CENTER ACROSS
THE NORTHWEST GULF THROUGH THE DAY AND TO THE SOUTH CENTRAL LA
COAST THIS EVENING. GUIDANCE STILL INDICATES POCKETS OF HEAVIER
RAINS WITH THE DEVIL IN THE DETAILS. SOME MODELS CLUSTER THE
HEAVIER RAINS RIGHT ALONG THE COAST AND ANOTHER SET CLUSTERING
MORE INLAND AS THE AS THE SYSTEM REACHES PEAK INTENSITY. OVERALL
THE HEAVIER RAINFALL LOOKS TO BE MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN YESTERDAY
AND THIS WILL RESULT IN SLIGHTLY LOWER RAINFALL TOTALS THAN WE
WERE EXPECTING YESTERDAY. SOIL MOISTURE GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT
SOILS JUST NOW BECOMING SATURATED ENOUGH TO ALLOW RUNOFF WITH THE
RATES THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY GETTING AND WITH HEAVIER RATES
EXPECTED THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON...WILL CONTINUE THE FLASH
FLOOD WATCH. DID THINK ABOUT TRIMMING THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE
WATCH...BUT DECIDED TO LET THE DAY CREW TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT IT
AND SEE HOW THINGS EVOLVE. WINDS WILL ALSO INCREASE TODAY AHEAD OF
THE LOW PRESSURE...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COAST...BUT DID INCREASE
WINDS A BIT INLAND AS WELL AND THIS REQUIRED EXPANDING THE WIND
ADVISORY NORTH JUST A BIT IN A FEW LOCATIONS. TEMPERATURES TODAY
OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE AREA WILL NOT CLIMB MUCH IF AT ALL
AND IN FACT EXPECT THE NORTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE AREA WILL SEE
TEMPERATURES DROP A BIT TODAY AS DRIER AIR FILTERS IN WITH
PRECIPITATION FALLING INTO THE DRIER AIRMASS.

RAIN INTENSITIES WILL CONTINUE TO DROP OFF TONIGHT WITH A
EXCEPTION TO CENTRAL LA WHERE DEFORMATION ZONE AXIS PRECIPITATION
COULD PRODUCE ANOTHER INCH OR TWO. WINDS WILL ALSO BE GUSTY THIS
EVENING AS COLD AIR WRAPS IN BEHIND THE SYSTEM. THEREFORE EXTENDED
THE WIND ADVISORY INTO TONIGHT FOR THE IMMEDIATE COASTAL ZONES.

LIGHT WRAP AROUND RAINFALL MONDAY WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT EAST
THROUGH THE DAY AND INTO TUESDAY.

WEAK MOSTLY DRY FRONT EXPECT THURSDAY WITH THE NEXT SIGNIFICANT
WEATHER SYSTEM MOVING IN TIME FOR THE WEEKEND WITH RAIN CHANCES
ALREADY PRETTY HIGH.

MARINE...
WINDS AND SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE TODAY AS A GALE LOW
PRESSURE CENTER MOVE NORTHEAST ACROSS THE NORTHWEST GULF.
FREQUENT WIND GUSTS AT OR ABOVE GALE FORCE CAN BE EXPECTED TODAY
OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST AND OUT OF THE NORTH AND NORTHWEST TONIGHT.

TIDES PEAKED AROUND 3.5 FEET MLLW AT HIGH TIDE THIS MORNING ALONG
THE COAST...WITH SURGE VALUES EXPECTED TO INCREASE THROUGH THE DAY
THE NEXT HIGH TIDE THIS AFTERNOON IS FORECAST TO BE AROUND 4.5
MLLW. THUS WILL KEEP THE COASTAL FLOOD WARNING GOING THROUGH THE
DAY. THE WARNING MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL
LOUISIANA FOR A TIME AS WINDS WILL STILL BE OUT THE SOUTH.
