Area forecast discussion, Mar 17, 8:24 AM CDT, 5 hours 24 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISSCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
824 AM CDT THU MAR 17 2016
...SOUNDING DISCUSSION...
SOUNDING LOOKS PRETTY ACTIVE THIS MORNING AND THE AIR COLUMN
ABOVE IS VERY MOIST. THE SATURATED LAYER BELOW 1000 FT SHOULD MIX
OUT BY LATER THIS MORNING. THE PWAT VALUE OF 1.38 INCHES PUTS US
IN THE 90 PERCENTILE RANGE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. CAPE VALUES ARE
3000-2000 J/KG WHICH IS FAIRLY HIGH AND CONDUCIVE OF STRONG
UPDRAFTS. THE FZL LEVEL IS BELOW 13 KFT AND WITH LAPSE RATES
APPROX. 7 C/KM...PEA TO QUARTER SIZED HAIL COULD BE ASSOCIATED
WITH THE FORECASTED ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. WINDS ARE WSW AT 45
KTS AT 500 MB (19 KFT) AND 125 KTS AT 200 MB (40 KFT). THESE MID
AND UPPER LEVEL WINDS WILL ALSO ASSIST WITH THE SEVERITY OF THE
STORMS LATER TODAY.
DRJ
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 359 AM CDT THU MAR 17 2016/
DISCUSSION...
ANOTHER ACTIVE WEATHER PERIOD WILL BEGIN TODAY. CURRENT SURFACE
ANALYSIS INDICATES A QUASI-STATIONARY BOUNDARY IS CURRENTLY
STRETCHED ROUGHLY ALONG THE LA/MS BORDER AND IT WILL MEANDER
AROUND THE AREA FOR THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS SERVING AS A FOCUS FOR
CONVECTION UNTIL IT IS FINALLY PUSHED OFF SHORE AS A STRONGER
FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA SATURDAY.
THERE ARE A COUPLE POTENTIAL CONCERNS WITH THE EXPECTED
CONVECTION OVER THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. FIRST...RAINFALL. AREA
AVERAGE RAINFALL IS GENERALLY EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 1 TO 2.5 INCH
RANGE...BUT AS IS USUALLY THE CASE WITH CONVECTIVE STORMS LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS WILL BE POSSIBLE. MUCH OF THE RAIN WILL BE
IMMEDIATELY CONVERTED TO RUNOFF IN AREAS WHERE THE GROUND REMAINS
SATURATED FOLLOWING LAST WEEK/S HEAVY RAINFALL. IF THE RAIN FALLS
TOO QUICKLY OVER THESE AREAS...IT COULD RESULT IN ADDITIONAL
FLOODING OR EXACERBATE ONGOING FLOODING IN AREAS WHERE THE WATER
HAS NOT YET RECEDED.
SECOND CONCERN WILL BE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
PRIMARILY THIS AFTERNOON. DESPITE WEAK FORCING IN THE AREA...THE
STALLED BOUNDARY WILL SERVE AS A FOCUS AND VERTICAL WIND SHEAR
APPEARS ENOUGH TO SUPPORT A FEW STRONG/SEVERE STORMS. WITH DECENT
MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...IT LOOKS LIKE HAIL WILL BE THE PRIMARY
THREAT. SPC HAS INTRODUCED A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR
AREAS GENERALLY ALONG/NORTH OF THE I-10/12 CORRIDOR AND A MARGINAL
RISK FOR PARTS OF THE SOUTH SHORE. THIS IS ROUGHLY IN THE VICINITY
OF THE STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY...WHERE MOST OF THE CONVECTION
SHOULD BE FOCUSED TODAY.
FRIDAY...THE FRONT CONTINUES TO MEANDER AROUND THE AREA WITH THE
SAME CONCERNS AS TODAY...THOUGH SEVERE WEATHER LOOKS A BIT LESS
LIKELY AS VERTICAL WIND SHEAR IS EXPECTED TO DECREASE. CAN/T RULE
OUT ONE OR TWO STRONG/SEVERE STORMS...THOUGH...AND SPC IS
INDICATING A MARGINAL RISK ACROSS ALL OF SE LA AND S MS.
BY SATURDAY...AN UPPER LOW MOVING INTO THE MIDDLE/UPPER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WILL FORCE A STRONGER COLD FRONT THROUGH THE
AREA PUTTING AN END TO THE RAIN AFTER IT PASSES. IN ALL...STORM
TOTAL RAINFALL IS NOT EXPECTED TO CAUSE ANY SIGNIFICANT ISSUES AS
THE HIGHEST TOTALS ARE CURRENTLY EXPECTED ACROSS THE MS COASTAL
COUNTIES WESTWARD THROUGH THE SOUTH SHORE AREA. HOWEVER...AS
PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED...IF THE RAINFALL SHIFTS A BIT TO THE
NORTHWEST...FLOODING AND FLASH FLOODING CONCERNS WOULD BE
GREATER.
FOLLOWING SATURDAY/S FRONTAL PASSAGE IT LOOKS LIKE WE/LL SEE ONE
LAST GASP OF WINTER-LIKE MORNING TEMPERATURES AS A COLD CANADIAN
HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE AREA. THE COLDEST MORNING LOOKS TO
BE MONDAY WITH TEMPS FALLING INTO THE MID TO UPPER 30S ALONG/NORTH
OF THE I-10/12 CORRIDOR AND INTO THE 40S SOUTH OF THE TIDAL LAKES.
NORTHERNMOST AREAS MAY EVEN SEE SOME FROST DURING THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS. AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S CAN BE EXPECTED
SUNDAY AND MONDAY BEFORE THE HIGH SHIFTS EASTWARD AND SETS OFF A
WARMING TREND.
AVIATION...
VARIABLE CONDITIONS AROUND THE AREA THIS MORNING WITH SOME TERMINALS
VFR AND OTHERS MVFR OR IFR. EXPECT CONDITIONS TO CONSOLIDATE IN THE
LOW END OF MVFR WITH MOST CEILINGS FL010-015 PRIOR TO SUNRISE.
CANNOT RULE OUT A FEW IN THE IFR RANGE THROUGH ABOUT 14Z BEFORE
THINGS GENERALLY IMPROVE TO VFR BY LATE MORNING. THERE WILL BE A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS ONCE CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES ARE REACHED PRIOR TO 17Z.
MOST LIKELY AREAS FOR THE CONVECTION WILL BE NEAR THE INTERSTATE
10/12 CORRIDOR. THIS WOULD INCLUDE ALL TERMINALS EXCEPT KHUM AND
KMCB. WILL CARRY VCTS IN THOSE TERMINALS FOR THE AFTERNOON
HOURS...AND AMEND TO PREVAILING WHERE NECESSARY ONCE STORMS DEVELOP.
THREAT OF CONVECTION SHOULD EASE DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...WITH
MOST AREAS VFR 00Z-08Z. COULD SEE SOME DEGRADATION OF CONDITIONS
BEYOND 08Z.
MARINE...
RELATIVELY QUIET CONDITIONS ON THE COASTAL WATERS FOR ABOUT THE NEXT
48 HOURS...UNTIL THE PASSAGE OF A STRONG COLD FRONT DURING THE DAY
SATURDAY. ANTICIPATE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS BY LATE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON OR SATURDAY EVENING...CONTINUING THROUGH SUNDAY
NIGHT BEFORE EASING. A BRIEF BREAK IN THE ACTION FOR MONDAY AND
TUESDAY BEFORE MODERATE ONSHORE FLOW RETURNS.

DEPENDING ON WHERE THE HEAVIER RAINS ALIGN...SOME OF THE FLOOD AREAS MAY BE EXPANDED OR EXTENDED FOR LONGER DURATION. A STRONG COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE FOLLOWED BY STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS THAT WILL CREATE HAZARDOUS WAVE CONDITIONS FOR SMALL CRAFT SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY.
