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 Lake Charles, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 16, 6:33 PM CDT, 2 hours 2 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 16, 6:33 PM CDT, 2 hours 2 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lake Charles LA
633 PM CDT TUE AUG 16 2016

.DISCUSSION...
For the 17/00Z TAF issuance.

&&

.AVIATION...
A very moist air mass and instability from daytime heating has
initiated another round of scattered showers and a few
thunderstorms. For the remainder of the evening there will be a
chance of seeing this convection at the KAEX/KBPT/KLCH sites with
brief MVFR/IFR conditions. Activity seems to be diurnally driven
and consensus of short term guidance is to have activity diminish
by 17/04Z, and will go with this scenario for the TAF package.
After 17/04Z, mainly VFR conditions expected for the remainder of
the night.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 437 PM CDT TUE AUG 16 2016/

DISCUSSION...

Short Term...Tonight and Tomorrow...
MRMS regional reflectivity shows showers ongoing across the CWA
with a line of embedded stronger extending from roughly Sabine
Pass to Marksville moving northward. SPC mesoanalysis shows PW
values remain above 2.1 inches, which corresponds to the 90th
percentile for August, across all of our CWA. Despite abundant
moisture across the whole area, afternoon model guidance indicates
the highest POPs this evening across SE Texas. Additionally,
guidance shows a relative minimum in convective activity across
Acadiana which should minimize the threat for additional localized
flooding tonight.

The axis of highest PW values will continue to shift westward
tomorrow. Highest QPF values will continue to be across SE Texas,
but the entire CWA will remain in chance to likely categorical POPs.

Long Term...Thursday through Tuesday...
Overall, mainly minor adjustments were made to the previous long
term forecast package. An upper level ridge will continue to build
into the northern Gulf through the second half of the week and
into the weekend. This will result in the tongue of tropical
moisture finally exiting the region. Ensemble guidance shows PW
values finally return to near the climatological average of 1.5 to
2.0 inches by the weekend and remaining through next week.
Therefore, kept POPs limited to a chance and Superblend
temperatures for the long term period.

MARINE...
THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL REMAIN BETWEEN SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE RIDGING WESTWARD AND WEAKENING LOW PRESSURE THAT WILL BE
LIFTING OFF TO THE NORTHEAST. THIS PATTERN WILL RESULT IN LOW TO
MODERATE ONSHORE FLOW AND SLIGHTLY ELEVATED SEAS. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED THROUGH THE FIVE DAY FORECAST.
LOCALLY HIGHER WINDS AND SEAS CAN BE EXPECTED AROUND THE STRONGER
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
