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 Apr 18, 11:38 AM CDT, 4 hours 5 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 18, 11:38 AM CDT, 4 hours 5 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAKE CHARLES LA
1138 AM CDT MON APR 18 2016

.DISCUSSION...
WIDESPREAD RAIN WITH EMBEDDED HEAVIER CONVECTIVE BANDS CONTINUES
PUSH SLOWLY EASTWARD THROUGH EAST TX THIS MORNING...WITH AN
ELONGATED NNE TO SSW ORIENTED HVY RAIN BAND STARTING TO TAKE
SHAPE JUST WEST OF THE SABINE RIVER AND OUT INTO THE GULF OF
MEXICO. MODEL GUIDANCE IS OF LIMITED VALUE THIS MORNING AS NONE
HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB WITH THE ONGOING RAINFALL...THUS MUCH OF
THIS UPDATE IS BASED ON ONGOING RADAR/SATELLITE TRENDS. WITH THE
HEAVIER CONVECTION STARTING TO ORIENT IN A N-S FASHION AND THE
OVERALL SLOW EASTWARD PROPAGATION...OPTED TO EXPAND THE FLASH
FLOOD WATCH INTO THE LOUISIANA PARISHES ADJACENT TO THE SABINE
RIVER. REMAINING HAZARDS LEFT AS IS FOR THE TIME BEING...WITH THE
ONLY OTHER CHANGE OF NOTE A REDUCTION OF MAX TEMPS OVER EAST TX
INTO WRN LA.

VERMLION PARISH ZONE FORECAST. TWEAKED POPS THROUGH MID WEEK.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 608 AM CDT MON APR 18 2016/

UPDATE...
FLASH FLOOD WATCH POSTED FROM NOW UNTIL 12Z TUESDAY FOR
ALL OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS. 3 TO 5 INCH RAINFALL TOTALS POSSIBLE
IN THE WATCH AREA WITH ISOLATED AMOUNTS UP TO NEAR 7 INCHES.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 555 AM CDT MON APR 18 2016/

AVIATION...RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO WORK INTO THE
REGION FROM THE WEST THIS MORNING. LOWER VIS AND CEILINGS WILL
ACCOMPANY THIS AREA OF PRECIP. RAIN CHANCES WILL BE LESSER TOWARD
KLFT AND KARA. WINDS WILL ALSO INCREASE THIS MORNING AND BECOME
GUSTY AGAIN TODAY.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 438 AM CDT MON APR 18 2016/

DISCUSSION...
PERSISTENT UPPER LEVEL OMEGA BLOCK PATTERN WITH TROUGHING OVER
THE COLORADO ROCKIES...RIDGING ACROSS OUR EASTERN UNITED STATES
AND ANOTHER TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC CONTINUES TO BRING
HEAVY TRAINING RAINS ACROSS TEXAS OVERNIGHT SPAWNING FLASH FLOOD
WARNINGS MAINLY WEST OF THE HOUSTON AREA. ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEAST
TEXAS AND SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE CONTINUED TO
STREAM OUT OF THE GULF AND CONVERGE INTO THE CURRENTLY UNFOLDING
HEAVY RAIN AREA.

FOR THE MOST PART...OUR AREA HAS BEEN SPARED THE HEAVY RAIN THUS
FAR...BUT THE RADAR IS NOW SHOWING THE LEADING EDGE OF THE SHIELD
HAVING ENTERED OUR SOUTHEAST TEXAS AREA. QUANTITATIVE PRECIPITATION
TOTALS OR QPF INDICATES THAT 2 TO NEAR 4 INCHES OF RAIN IS POSSIBLE
ACROSS OUR SOUTHEAST TEXAS COUNTY WARNING AREA BY TUESDAY 12Z.
SINCE OUR GROUND IS FAIRLY DRY WITH ONLY ONE DAY THIS MONTH OF 1
INCH OR BETTER OF PRECIPITATION...AND THE FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE
VALUES FOR FLASH FLOODING FOR ONE HOUR BEING OVER 3 INCHES...3
HOUR 3.5 TO 4.5 INCHES...AND 6 HOUR VALUES 4.5 TO 5.5 INCHES...DO
NOT THINK WE NEED TO ISSUE FLOOD WATCH YET FOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS
AND MAY NOT NEED TOO IF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH TO THE WEST BEGINS
TO LIFT OUT LATER TODAY INTO TUESDAY. THE HEAVY RAIN MAY INDEED
HANG OUT TO OUR WEST AND NORTH. WE BELIEVE THE CURRENT MCS
BRINGING FLOODING RAINS WEST OF HOUSTON WILL WEAKEN THROUGH THE
MORNING. NEW HEAVY RAIN DEVELOPMENT WILL LIKELY FORM WEST OF
CURRENT ACTIVITY AND THAT WOULD PLACE HEAVY RAIN MAINLY ON THE
FRINGES OF OUR AREA BACK TO THE WEST THIS AFTERNOON. EVEN WITH
THAT SAID...STILL EXPECT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OF THE LIGHTER
VARIETY TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA. FOR NOW...WILL NOT ISSUE A
FLOOD WATCH PRODUCT...WILL LET THE DAY SHIFT MONITOR FOR ANY
FURTHER IMPINGEMENT OF THE HEAVY RAIN.

SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL LINGER THROUGH THURSDAY
BEFORE COMING TO AN END FOR FRIDAY AS A COOL FRONT PASSES THROUGH
THE AREA....DRY AND WARM WEATHER WILL FOLLOW INTO THE WEEKEND AS
DAYTIME HEATING OFFSETS THE WEAK COOL FRONT.

MARINE...
LOW PRESSURE TO THE NORTHWEST AND HIGH PRESSURE TO THE EAST WILL
KEEP THE NORTHWEST GULF OF MEXICO IN A LONG FETCH OF ONSHORE
WINDS. ELEVATED WINDS THIS MORNING WILL DECREASE LATE THIS
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. ADDITIONALLY...SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BE INCREASING AS DEEPENING MOISTURE
COMBINES WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE ALOFT OVER THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES AND HIGH PLAINS.
