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 May 2, 7:01 PM CDT, 2 hours 1 minute earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 2, 7:01 PM CDT, 2 hours 1 minute before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAKE CHARLES LA
701 PM CDT MON MAY 2 2016

.DISCUSSION...
FOR 00Z TAF ISSUANCE.

&&

.AVIATION...
SATELLITE IMAGERY/SFC OBS INDICATE ONE LAST ROUND OF LOWER MVFR-
LEVEL CLOUDS BEGINNING TO MAKE ITS WAY THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA
ATTM...CURRENTLY IMPACTING KBPT/KAEX. REGIONAL 88DS SHOW SOME
LINGERING LIGHT SHOWERS BACK OVER ERN/CNTL TX MOVING THIS
WAY...ALTHOUGH DRIER AIR ALOFT NOTED ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY IS
BEGINNING TO WORK ON DISSIPATING THIS ACTIVITY AND MAY ALSO BEGIN
TO SCOUR OUT THE LOWER CEILINGS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AS WELL.
THEREAFTER EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO (FINALLY!) PREVAIL OVER THE
TERMINALS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. MAIN ISSUE WOULD THEN
BECOME THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME ELEVATED NRLY WINDS AS A BRIEF SHOT
OF A TIGHTER GRADIENT AND WEAK CAA DEVELOP OVER THE REGION.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 359 PM CDT MON MAY 2 2016/

DISCUSSION...
UPDATE TO CANCEL THE REMAINING FLOOD WATCH AND LOWER QPF AND
POPS. DRIER AIR INFILTRATING BEHIND THE FRONT IS LIMITING SHOWER
AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT...AND SHOULD NOT POSE ANY ADDITIONAL
FLOODING THREAT.

DML

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 306 PM CDT MON MAY 2 2016/

DISCUSSION...
WX MAP SHOWS COLD FRONT PUSHING THROUGH SE TX/W LA THIS AFTERNOON.
SHRA/TSRA HASN'T REALLY MATERIALIZED...AS LARGE AND SVR TSRA
REMAINED OFFSHORE FOR MOST OF THE DAY. INLAND...SCT SHRA/TSRA
CONTINUES...BUT NOTHING REALLY HEAVY OR CAUSING MOST PROBLEMS. FOR
THIS...HAVE DROPPED THE FLOOD WATCH FOR ALL BUT THE HEAVIEST HIT
AREAS THE LAST TWO DAYS...KEEPING IT ALONG THE I-10 CORRIDOR
ACROSS S LA THRU 7 PM.

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...COOLER
AND DRIER AIR WILL CONTINUE TO FILTER FROM NW TO SE ACROSS THE
AREA...ENDING THE PRECIP AS WELL. THUS CONTINUE THE TREND AND
DECREASING POPS DURING THIS PERIOD.

A WELCOME REPRIEVE OF COOLER AND DRY WX WILL CONTINUE FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE WEEK AS NW FLOW ALOFT WILL ALLOW FOR COOL AND DRY
HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD SOUTHWARD FROM CANADA. FOR THE MOST
PART...WE CAN EXPECT LOWS IN THE MID 50S TO LOWER 60S WITH HIGHS
NEAR 80/LOWER 80S FOR WED THROUGH FRI.

A WARMING AND SLOWLY HUMIDIFYING TREND WILL COMMENCE OVER THE
WEEKEND. A LARGE UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE WESTERN STATES WILL
SLOWLY MOVE EAST OVER THE WEEKEND...BRINGING INCREASED MOISTURE
AND LIFT FOR A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS NEXT MONDAY.

DML

MARINE...
A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE COASTAL WATERS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...WITH WINDS BECOMING NORTHERLY THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT.
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO
DIMINISH AS COOLER AND DRIER AIR FILTERS INTO THE REGION. LIGHT TO
MODERATE NORTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE
WEEK...BRIEFLY STRENGTHENING WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS A DRY FRONT BRINGS
A REINFORCEMENT OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE REGION.
