River Flood Warning 129, NWS Shreveport, LA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
345 PM CDT TUE MAY 19 2015

.DISCUSSION...
OUR TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE LOW 80S NORTH TO MID 80S ELSEWHERE.
THE NORTHEAST WINDS ARE RUNNING OUT OF GAS. AS EXPECTED AFTERNOON
THUNDERSTORM INITIATION HAS OCCURRED OVER OUR TEXAS COUNTIES
LIFTING NORTHEAST WARD WITH MEAGER COVERAGE SO FAR. THE WINDS
THERE ARE MOIST FROM THE SOUTHEAST. FOR NOW...THE MORE STABLE AIR
REMAINS OVER OUR EAST AND MAYBE FOR A WHILE YET.

FARTHER WEST...THUNDERSTORMS ARE STRONGER AND TO SOME EXTENT A
BIT MORE NUMEROUS. THE WATER VAPOR SHOWS THE REASON IS A GOOD PUSH
OUT OF THE ROCKIES OUT INTO THE PLAINS WITH A LARGE UPPER LOW. THE
TAIL END OF THIS FEATURE WILL CONTINUE IT/S EVOLUTION BEYOND
SUNDOWN WITH THE EXPECTATION OF THE UPPER DIVERGENCE ALOFT AHEAD
OF THE LOW WORKING EAST OUT INTO THE MID SOUTH OVERNIGHT.

SO AFTER A BRIEF BREAK FROM THE ACTION WE HAVE THE WEAK FRONTAL
BOUNDARY NOW ALONG THE AR/LA STATE LINE OR SO WITH A CONTINUED
LIFT BACK TO THE NORTH OVERNIGHT. THE HRRR SHOWS A GOOD PUSH OF
QPF INTO OUR NW CORNER AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH MUCH OF THE DIURNAL
COVERAGE GONE HOURS EARLIER IN THE MID EVENING. THE NAM IS
SIMILAR...BUT MUCH SLOWER. THE RAIN THAT ACTUALLY FALLS IN THIS
AREA IS CRUCIAL TO RIVER FORECAST WHICH IS QPF DRIVEN. SO CLOSE
ATTENTION TO CONDITIONS IS MORE THAN WARRANTED WITH ALREADY PRETTY
HIGH WATER AND SOIL SATURATION AS YET ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY
WILL SETTLE INTO THE I-20 CORRIDOR LATE TOMORROW AND INTO EARLY
THURSDAY.

THE WEATHER PATTERN WILL NOT CHANGE GREATLY AS WE SEE ANOTHER
DEEP TROUGH MOVING INTO THE ROCKIES OVER THE WEEKEND AND OUT INTO
THE PLAINS EARLY NEXT WEEK.
