AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
802 AM CST WED FEB 3 2016

.SOUNDING DISCUSSION...
THERE WAS RAIN AT TIME OF LAUNCH WITH MAYBE SOME DATA
CONTAMINATION BETWEEN 850-700 MB. SOME EDITING WAS PERFORMED IN
THAT STRETCH TO SMOOTH OUT SOME FALSE LAPSE RATES. OTHERWISE...A
FRONTAL INVERSION IS NOTED TO 908 MB/3KFT...THEN SATURATED TO JUST
BELOW 500 MB WHERE THE BASE OF A VERY DRY COLUMN ALOFT THROUGH
TROPOPAUSE. PRECIPITABLE WATER HAS FALLEN SOMEWHAT TO 1.36 INCHES
AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO FALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY. SHALLOW NORTH TO
NORTHWEST WINDS 10-25 KT BELOW FRONTAL INVERSION...THEN SW 20-120
KT ALOFT. PEAK WIND 230/119 KT AT 46KFT. 24/RR

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 314 AM CST WED FEB 3 2016/

SHORT TERM...
CURRENT SYSTEM WILL BE SLOW TO MOVE OUT OF THE AREA TODAY. THE
EASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA WILL STILL HAVE SOME LINGERING
OVERRUNNING LIGHT RAIN TO CONTEND WITH THROUGH AT LEAST THE
MORNING HOURS AND SOME MAY LINGER INTO THE AFTERNOON FOR JACKSON
COUNTY AND PLAQUEMINES PARISH. WE WILL LEAVE THE OVERNIGHT TEMPS
IN THE 70S AS COLD AIR BEHIND THE FRONT WILL SETTLE BACK INTO THE
AREA MAKING IT FEEL LIKE FEBRUARY AGAIN. CLEAR SKIES AND COOL DAYS
AND NIGHTS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK WITH A VERY
PROGRESSIVE BUT RELATIVELY DRY PATTERN SETTING UP THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE FCAST.

LONG TERM...
WE WILL SEE ANOTHER DEEP UPPER TROUGH DIG SOUTHWARD ALONG WITH
ANOTHER COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH BY SATURDAY. THE FRONT WILL BE
QUITE DISTINGUISHABLE AS A GOOD LINE OF CLOUDS SHOULD BE
ASSOCIATED WITH IT DURING THE DAY SATURDAY. CANT RULE OUT A
SPRINKLE OR TWO BUT FOR THE MOST PART EVEN THE CLOUDS WILL BEGIN
TO DECAY AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH. THE SYSTEM WILL BRING SOME
STRONG NW WINDS AND A REINFORCEMENT OF COOL DRY AIR. ALMOST
IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE SATURDAY FRONT WILL BE ANOTHER DIGGING
UPPER TROUGH THAT WILL BEGIN TO DEVELOP A DEEP SFC LOW AS IT
SWINGS EAST THROUGH OKLAHOMA AND ARKANSAS SUNDAY. THE COLD FRONT
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH OUR AREA SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING. NOT A LOT EXPECTED WITH THIS FRONT
EITHER AS ONLY A NARROW LINE OF CLOUDS MAY MOVE THROUGH THE AREA
SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY MORNING. NW WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE BRISK
BEHIND THIS FRONT AND ANOTHER REINFORCING SURGE OF COOL DRY AIR
WILL MOVE BACK INTO THE AREA. THE MID LEVEL THERMAL TROUGH
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH MONDAY AND COULD BE
DEEP ENOUGH TO CAUSE SOME SNOWFALL OVER NORTHERN MISS INTO CENTRAL
ALABAMA. MODELS HAVE BEEN CHALLENGED QUITE A BIT WITH RESOLVING
THIS DEEP SYNOPTIC UPPER TROUGH. WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE BASE OF THE
UPPER TROUGH STAY NORTH IN FUTURE MODEL RUNS AS ANY DISPLACEMENT
SOUTHWARD COULD POSSIBLY BE AN ISSUE.

AVIATION...

OUTFLOW BOUNDARY/COLD FRONT HAS CLEARED ALL TERMINALS WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF KGPT...WHICH SHOULD SEE IT PRIOR TO 12Z TAF PACKAGE
ISSUANCE. THERE IS SOME ELEVATED CONVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT...SO
WILL NEED TO CARRY CONVECTION FOR A FEW MORE HOURS FROM THE TIME OF
THIS WRITING...BUT LIKELY TO REMOVE FROM MOST TERMINALS PRIOR TO
12Z. THERE IS LIKELY TO BE A PERIOD OF SEVERAL HOURS AFTER THE
BOUNDARY MOVES THROUGH WHERE WINDS WILL BE VARIABLE BEFORE NORTHWEST
TO NORTH WINDS PREDOMINATE. MAINLY IFR CEILINGS IN ADVANCE OF THE
FRONT...BUT VFR BEHIND THE CONVECTION. WILL NEED TO MONITOR FOR
POTENTIAL OF A BRIEF PERIOD OF IFR CONDITIONS TO SET BACK IN DURING
THE VARIABLE WINDS...BUT NOT SEEING MUCH OF THAT RIGHT NOW.
ANTICIPATE THAT ALL TERMINALS WILL BECOME VFR DURING THE LATE
MORNING OR EARLY AFTERNOON. BEYOND THAT...MAIN FORECAST CONCERN
WOULD BE POTENTIAL FOR WIND GUSTS ABOVE 20 KNOTS AT KMSY AND KNEW
LATER TONIGHT. 35

MARINE...

CONVECTION MOVING THROUGH COASTAL WATERS SHOULD ELIMINATE ANY
REMAINING SEA FOG AND AM ALLOWING MARINE FOG ADVISORY TO EXPIRE WITH
THIS FORECAST PACKAGE ISSUANCE. REAL COLD ADVECTION DOES NOT REALLY
PLUG IN UNTIL LATER TONIGHT OR EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...SO SHOULD BE
ABLE TO JUST CARRY EXERCISE CAUTION HEADLINES ON THE OPEN WATERS
TODAY. AFTER THE FRONT MOVES WELL OFFSHORE...STRONG COLD AND DRY AIR
ADVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH A RIDGE BUILDING INTO THE AREA WILL ALLOW
FOR BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW IN EXCESS OF 20 KNOTS TO EASILY MIX DOWN TO
THE SURFACE.  AS A RESULT...AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS IS EXPECTED BEGINNING TONIGHT AND PERSIST
THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. SEAS WILL CORRESPONDINGLY INCREASE TO
BETWEEN 5 AND 7 FEET IN THE OPEN GULF WATERS AND 3 TO 5 FEET IN THE
SOUNDS AND LAKES. WINDS SHOULD FINALLY BEGIN TO RELAX FRIDAY
AFTERNOON...AS THE CENTER OF THE RIDGE BECOMES MORE CENTERED OVER
THE GULF SOUTH AND THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WEAKENS. BEYOND
SATURDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE DIMINISHES WITH SIGNIFICANT
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEDIUM RANGE MODELS. HAVE ADOPTED THE BLENDED
SOLUTION UNTIL MODEL DIFFERENCES RESOLVE. 35

DECISION SUPPORT...
DSS CODE....BLUE.
DEPLOYED...NONE.
ACTIVATION...NONE.
ACTIVITIES...RIVER FLOODING CONTINUES ON MISSISSIPPI/PEARL RIVERS.
             MONITORING CONVECTION EARLY THIS MORNING.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST
LOUISIANA...SOUTH MISSISSIPPI AND THE ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE OUT OF THE COASTAL WATERS THIS
MORNING. A FEW STORMS COULD STILL PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS OVER THE
COASTAL WATERS THROUGH LATE THIS MORNING.

SMALL CRAFT SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS FOR
WINDS FREQUENTLY IN THE 15 TO 20 KNOTS RANGE WITH HIGHER GUSTS
ALONG WITH CHOPPY WATERS. AN INCREASE IN NORTHERLY WINDS COULD
PRODUCE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

STRONG WINDS AND ROUGH SEAS IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE COLD FRONT
PASSAGE ARE EXPECTED TO RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS FOR SMALL
CRAFT THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

THE ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS IS NOT EXPECTED.
