AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
409 AM CDT THU APR 28 2016

.SHORT TERM... RADAR BEGAN SHOWING SHOWER INITIATION AROUND 07Z ALONG
THE ATCHAFALAYA BASIN WITH COVERAGE CONTINUING TO EXPAND NORTHEAST
THROUGH THE TYPING OF THIS DISCUSSION. THE WIDTH OF ACTIVITY EXTENDS
FROM WEST OF BTR TO AROUND BIX. THIS REGION IS FULL OF MOISTURE RICH
SURFACE AIR WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE  70S. NORTH OF BTR SHOWS TD'S
DROPPING OF CONSIDERABLY. FEW CHANGES SYNOPTICALLY WILL ALLOW FOR
FAIRLY STEADY SW TO NE STREAM OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGHOUT THE DAY. THUNDER WILL LIKELY BE LIMITED THIS MORNING
ALTHOUGH DO HAVE SOME STRIKES OBSERVED JUST NORTH OF THE WFO THIS
MORNING. SO WENT WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE MORNING PERIOD
AND MORE WIDESPREAD STORMS IN THE AFTERNOON. OVERALL COVERAGE SHOULD
REMAIN FAIRLY STEADY TODAY PER MESO AND MEDIUM RANGE MODELS. MODEL
SOUNDINGS DO SHOW THE POTENTIAL FOR AT LEAST A FEW STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS TODAY WITH MID LEVELS COLD ENOUGH TO PRODUCE MILDLY
STEEP LAPSE RATES AND CAPE VALUES UPWARDS OF 3000 J/KG. THIS IN
COMBINATION WITH WBZ UNDER 10KFT SUGGEST HAIL WILL BE THE GREATEST
THREAT TODAY. INSTABILITY BEING QUITE ELEVATED AND WARM LOW LEVELS
SHOULD AIDE IN HAIL MELTING AND LIMIT SIZE TO MARGINALLY SEVERE
LEVELS.

ACTIVITY WILL BEGIN TO TAPER THIS EVENING THROUGH MOST OF FRIDAY AS
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE SWRN GULF OF MEXICO BUILDS NORTHEAST.
THIS WILL LIMIT CONVECTION TO NORTHERN FRINGES OF THE CWA FRIDAY
AFTERNOON. ADDITIONALLY...TEMPS WILL LIKELY RESPOND TO INCREASING
HEIGHTS SO INCREASED HIGHS INTO THE UPPER 80S FOR ALL EXCEPT COASTAL
AREAS.
&&

.LONG TERM...
HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL ROTATE NORTHEAST
OUT OF THE DESERT SOUTHWEST AND MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS...WEAKENING AS IT DOES SO. THE RIDGE OVERHEAD WILL BEGIN TO
SUPPRESS SOUTHWARD AND ALLOW FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS TO SPREAD
SOUTHEAST OVER THE AREA. COULD HAVE A RELATIVELY HIGH GRADIENT IN
RAIN CHANCES RANGING FROM BARELY 20 PERCENT ON THE MS COAST TO
NEARLY 50 PERCENT IN POINT COUPEE PARISH.

WEAK COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER TROUGH WILL FINALLY REACH
THE AREA ON SUNDAY AS THE TROUGH IS ABSORBED BY GENERAL TROUGHING
ALREADY IN PLACE OVER THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS. THIS BOUNDARY WILL BE
PROMOTE MORE WIDESPREAD DEVELOPMENT WITH POPS AS HIGH AS 70 PERCENT.
ALTHOUGH RAIN CHANCES WILL LOWER GOING INTO NEXT WEEK AS THE
BOUNDARY WEAKENS...LIKELY TO HAVE UNSETTLED WEATHER UNTIL SECONDARY
UPPER TROUGH SHIFTS SOUTH OUT OF CANADA AND PUSHES MOISTURE SOUTH
INTO THE GULF OF MEXICO.

MEFFER
&&

.AVIATION... MOST TERMINALS HAVE DEVELOPED MVFR CEILINGS OVER THE
LAST COUPLE OF HOURS...WITH KHUM REPORTING IFR CEILINGS. EXPECT THIS
TREND TO CONTINUE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AND INTO
MID-MORNING. RADAR HAS SHOWN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SHRA OVER THE LAST
HOUR OR SO...AS WAS INDICATED BY THE MESOSCALE SHORT TERM MODELING.
HAVE NOT SEEN ANY THUNDER REPORTED YET...BUT CANNOT RULE IT OUT.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR RADAR TRENDS WITH AN EYE TOWARD REMOVING
MENTION OF THUNDER AND JUST GO WITH SHRA. DO EXPECT AN IMPROVEMENT
TO VFR CONDITIONS BY 18Z. LIKELY TO BE A REPEAT OF MVFR CEILINGS
AFTER 06Z FRIDAY. 35

&&

.MARINE...

SHORTWAVE RIDGING ALOFT SHOULD ALLOW WIND AND WAVE CONDITIONS TO
RELAX FOR ABOUT 24 HOURS BEFORE GRADIENT BEGINS TO TIGHTEN AGAIN AS
LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS OVER WEST TEXAS. LIKELY TO RENEW EXERCISE
CAUTION HEADLINES OVER THE WESTERN WATERS BY MIDDAY FRIDAY. DO NOT
ANTICIPATE WINDS/WAVES TO BECOME STRONG ENOUGH TO JUSTIFY SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORIES THOUGH. THE EXERCISE CAUTION HEADLINES MAY BE
NECESSARY THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEKEND...AT LEAST OVER THE WESTERN
WATERS. 35
