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 New Orleans, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Mar 11, 4:13 AM CST, 2 hours 17 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 11, 4:13 AM CST, 2 hours 17 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISSCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
413 AM CST FRI MAR 11 2016

...LONG DURATION VERY HEAVY RAIN EVENT IN PROGRESS...

.SYNOPSIS...

00Z LIX PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUE WAS 1.99 INCHES...WHICH IS PRETTY
MUCH THE TOP OF THE CHART FOR MARCH. UPPER LOW CURRENTLY NEAR
BROWNSVILLE TEXAS AND HAS NOT TAKEN ON A NEGATIVE TILT YET.
NUMEROUS SURGES OF MOISTURE EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR POINTED AT THE
LOUISIANA COAST. ONE SURGE HAS A NEARLY SOLID LINE OF CONVECTION
FROM ALEXANDRIA TO LAFAYETTE THEN WELL OUT INTO THE GULF. THIS
BAND WILL MOVE INTO THE ATCHAFALAYA BASIN IN THE NEXT COUPLE
HOURS. MESOLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THIS BAND OF CONVECTION CURRENTLY
SOUTHWEST OF MORGAN CITY. OVER THE LOCAL AREA...PORTIONS OF THE
AREA NEAR HAMMOND HAVE LIKELY SEEN 8 TO 12 INCHES OF RAIN
ALREADY...WITH A LOT MORE TO COME.

&&

.SHORT TERM...

SHORT VERSION IS THAT FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT.
ENTIRE AREA REMAINS IN MODERATE RISK OF FLASH FLOODING WITH AREAS
NEAR HAMMOND IN HIGH RISK. MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT UPPER
SYSTEM WILL TAKE ON A NEGATIVE TILT THIS AFTERNOON OR
TONIGHT...INCREASING UPPER DIVERGENCE. FOCUS OF CONVECTION SHOULD
GRADUALLY SHIFT EASTWARD DURING THE DAY AND MOVE INTO AREAS THAT
HAVE NOT GOTTEN INTO THE HEAVY RAIN YET...SUCH AS THE NEW ORLEANS
METRO AREA AND MISSISSIPPI COAST. WIDESPREAD 4 TO 8 INCH RAINFALL
AMOUNTS POSSIBLE OVER THE NEXT 36 HOURS ON TOP OF WHAT HAS ALREADY
FALLEN. CERTAINLY...PORTIONS OF THE AREA WHERE ECHO TRAINING
OCCURS WILL SEE EVEN MORE THAN THAT. NO DOUBT THAT AREAS WILL BE
WELL IN EXCESS OF ONE FOOT OF RAIN BEFORE THE EVENT ENDS.

UPPER LOW FINALLY SHIFTS TO THE NORTH OF THE AREA SATURDAY
NIGHT...ENDING THE RAIN AS DRYING MOVES IN. THE SHORTWAVE ENTERING
THE WEST COAST THAT WILL SERVE AS THE KICKER TO THE UPPER LOW WILL
MOVE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT WITH COMPARATIVELY LITTLE
MOISTURE TO WORK WITH. THIS SHOULD ALLOW SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT
TO REMAIN DRY ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA.

WHILE TEMPERATURES TODAY AND SATURDAY WILL BE HELD TO THE 70 TO 75
RANGE...SUNSHINE ON SUNDAY WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURE TO RISE TO NEAR
THE 80 DEGREE MARK. 35

&&

.LONG TERM...

MEDIUM RANGE MODELS IN DECENT AGREEMENT ON 500 MB PATTERN MONDAY
AND TUESDAY MORNING BEFORE DIVERGING SIGNIFICANTLY ON STRENGTH OF
SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THE MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY WITH GFS
BECOMING MUCH DEEPER THAN ECMWF. THIS WILL ALSO PRODUCE
SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN SURFACE PRESSURE...GFS ABOUT 15 MB
DEEPER BY TUESDAY EVENING OVER ILLINOIS. BOTH PUSH A FRONT INTO
THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT. THE WEAKER ECMWF ALLOWS THE FRONT TO HANG
UP OVER THE LOCAL AREA LATE IN THE WEEK...WHILE THE GFS PUSHES IT
INTO THE GULF. WILL TREND SOMEWHAT NEARER THE ECMWF WITH HIGHER
CHANCE POPS FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. THIS ALSO NECESSITATES THAT
TEMPERATURE FORECAST GO SOMEWHAT WARMER THAN GFS SOLUTION FOR
THURSDAY/FRIDAY. 35

&&

.AVIATION...

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE
ACROSS ALL SITES. FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS WILL REMAIN MOSTLY IN THE IFR
RANGE...ESPECIALLY DURING PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN. 7/ARM

&&

.MARINE...

STRONG ONSHORE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE NORTHERN
GULF WATERS AS THE PREVIOUSLY ADVERTISED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. EXPECT FOR WINDS AND SEAS TO CONTINUE TO
MEET SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA ACROSS ALL COASTAL WATERS THROUGH
THIS EVENING...WITH CONDITIONS SLOWLY IMPROVING FROM THE WEST.
HOWEVER...ADVISORY CRITERIA CONDITIONS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE ACROSS THE OPEN WATERS EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AT
LEAST THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING. 7/ARM

&&

.HYDROLOGY AND COASTAL FLOODING...

COMBINATION OF CURRENT AND POSSIBLE ADDITIONAL FLASH
FLOODING...RISING RIVERS...AND CURRENT TIDE LEVELS STILL RUNNING 2
TO 3 FEET ABOVE NORMAL WILL LEAD TO ADDITIONAL INUNDATION OF LOWER
LYING ROADS FOR AREAS SURROUNDING LAKE MAUREPAS...WESTERN AND
NORTHERN LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN...AND HANCOCK COUNTY...SO HAVE
UPGRADED THE COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY TO A WARNING AND EXTENDED THE
EXPIRATION TIME TO 6 PM SATURDAY SINCE MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY
STRONG SOUTHEAST WINDS ARE FORECAST TO CONTINUE TO PUSH WATER
IN...AND TIDAL RANGES ALSO INCREASE ON SATURDAY. REMAINING COASTAL
AREAS SHOULD GENERALLY SEE TIDES REMAINING 1.5 TO 2 FEET ABOVE
NORMAL...SO WILL NOT UPGRADE THE ADVISORY AT THIS TIME.

MOST RIVERS /WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MOST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER/ IN
OUR SERVICE AREA ARE FORECAST TO REACH MINOR TO MODERATE FLOOD STAGE
IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS...AND SOME RIVER BASINS THAT SEE HIGHER THAN
EXPECTED ADDITIONAL RAINFALL COULD SEE FORECAST CRESTS ADJUSTED EVEN
HIGHER. EXPECT FREQUENT UPDATED RIVER FLOOD WARNINGS AND STATEMENTS.
