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.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
824 AM CDT WED AUG 10 2016
...SOUNDING DISCUSSION...
Record high atmospheric moisture persists with the precipitable
water at 2.49 inches and has remained above 2.4 inches the last
24 hours. With all the moisture and a low level inversion, some
areas of fog were able to form this morning. Winds throughout the
lower half of the atmosphere remain light and this environment
overall would support waterspouts. The convective temperature
remains in the upper 80s and with instability around 2000 J/kg,
thunderstorms will initiate around midday today over land areas and
coverage should be widespread across the area, especially near
coastal locations.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 411 AM CDT WED AUG 10 2016/
DISCUSSION...
Surface and mid level troughs located along the northeast Gulf
Coast region are embedded within broad upper level high pressure.
This will be the focus for numerous showers and thunderstorms
across the local forecast area. Radar currently shows quiet
conditions over SELA and south MS while it is much more active
south of LA and AL/FL panhandles in the open gulf waters. This
trend will likely persist through the early morning hours although
scattered storms will still be possible inland. Model consensus
for afternoon convection development today continues to be fairly
good as well as agreement with medium range models. There will
likely still be a coastal bias to spatial coverage and thus pops
have been adjusted accordingly.
Local upper air sounding precip water values continue to be at or
above record for this time of year. Model soundings suggest that
these current numbers will even go up Wed and Thu. As seen with a
few storms yesterday, one of the results of having deep tropical
moisture in place is that any storms of moderate intensity will
very efficient rain producers and could result in localized
flooding.
Moving into Thursday and Friday, models remain consistent in
indicating that the mid level low will move overhead. This will
continue to enhance convective development and likely keep the
nighttime more active than typical for this time of year. In
addition, the concern for more widespread heavy rainfall shifting
inland increases. Could be looking at 2-4" late Wednesday night
through Thursday and then similar amounts for the Thursday night
through Friday time frame. For now keeping the flood watch along
coastal parishes/counties but if models continue to indicate
further inland shift of precip, will likely need to include more
of the CWA in the watch.
An upper trough moving eastward across the midsection of the country
from Saturday through Monday will aide in keeping rain chances on
the higher side for the area. However, at this time it appears qpf
amounts will be on the downward trend.
MEFFER
AVIATION...
Will carry VCTS at all sites again during the afternoon hours. IFR
conditions will result if TS move over any particular site. As the
sfc low transits west, all terminals will be under the onshore flow
side of the low by Thursday morning. This will cause TSRA to become
a prevailing variable toward the end of the 12z taf pack.
MARINE...
Broad low over southern Alabama and the Florida panhandle is
competing with a strong high off the east coast causing a much
stronger pressure gradient to exist over the Florida coastal bend
than what we have locally. This gradient will slowly move west over
the remainder of the week and set up over the coastal waters mainly
east of the Mississippi River. This will cause a slow rise in wind
speeds starting today and lasting through the remainder of the work
week. A line of sfc convergence will remain over the coastal waters
today producing widespread sh/ts. Somewhat higher wind speeds will
be a result of this as well. SCC(Small Craft exercise Caution) will
be posted for the nearshore waters from Port Fourchon eastward
today. And (SCA)Small Craft Advisories will be posted for the outer
waters from the Mississippi River eastward. Winds are 20 to 25 knots
mainly in showers and thunderstorms but since this activity is so
widespread, advisories will be needed mainly for the areas most
affected. Marine flags may be expanded and extended over the next 24
hours to include more areas as sh/ts moves northward.
The line of sh/ts that are stalled over the north central gulf will
begin to move slowly northward tonight and Thursday as the sfc low
moves west bringing the onshore flow side of the low. This will
cause the numerous sh/ts to move from the offshore areas to the near
shore and coastal areas very slowly. Even though only caution
statements will be posted, these conditions will be dangerous for
small craft. The amount of rain falling within a short period could
overtake bilge capacity of small vessels rapidly, and wind speeds
are expected to range from 20 to 30kt in and near numerous sh/ts. As
this activity moves very slowly inland, conditions should begin to
improve by late Friday into Saturday.
