$$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 Lake Charles, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 2, 8:52 PM CDT, 2 hours 37 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 2, 8:52 PM CDT, 2 hours 37 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lake Charles LA
852 PM CDT Sun Apr 2 2017
.DISCUSSION...
Large MCS continues across inland SE TX/C LA this evening, with
flood warnings continuing for 5-8" of rainfall. KLCH dual pole
precip shows isolated amounts 10" but radar a little on the warm
bias this evening. SPC lowered risk to enhanced over C and SC LA,
as well as issued TORNADO Watch 113 until 2 am. This is mainly
for a band of thunderstorms is expected to reorient more north-
south and begin to progress eastward over the watch area tonight,
offering damaging gusts and the risk for embedded tornadoes. The
potential still exists for tornadic supercells ahead of the line
as well.
Several adjustments were made to QPF values this evening and
overnight, along with pops for current trends.
Tidal surge from the southerly winds have pushed water up the
Sabine/Calcasieu rivers, with tidal readings in Lake Charles
~3-3.3 Feet MLLW this evening, which is over 2 feet above
astronomical tide prediction. Similiar readings along Sabine Lake
at Rainbow Bridge and Port Arthur holding at 3 feet MLLW. Have
extended the area for the coastal flood advisory to include Orange
County and Calcasieu Parish.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 334 PM CDT Sun Apr 2 2017/
DISCUSSION...Forecast area under an unusually active and very
dangerous weather pattern. Numerous showers and thunderstorms
ongoing with most strong and a few severe. A more linear line
extends northeast to southwest over southeast Texas and watching
this area closely for a potential flash flood warning as storms
continue to train. Tornado watch 110 has now been extended south
to the interstate 10 corridor and encompasses all of Louisiana
into east Texas. All severe weather modes will remain in place
through the remainder of the afternoon and into the evening. This
includes tornadoes, damaging wind gusts and hail. Flooding rains
will also remain a threat.
A PDF (Particularly Dangerous Situation) was issued with tornado
watch 110 was issued by the Storm Prediction Center. Included was
"Numerous tornadoes and several intense tornadoes expected.
Widespread large hail and scattered very large hail events to 3
inches in diameter likely. Widespread damaging wind gusts to 70
mph likely."
Rain chances will end west to east as the night progresses with
increasingly vertically stacked low pressure tracking northeast
across north Texas into Oklahoma advancing a cold front across
the area. Sharply drier air will then follow. Next frontal passage
arrives Tuesday night into early Wednesday. Limited moisture and
lift to work with so rain chances remain slim at this time. We
will see a sharp decrease in temps with FROPA that will be
maintained through the remainder of the week.
MARINE...Strong and gusty southeast winds will gradually diminish
overnight as strong low pressure advances northeast from Texas an
an associated cold front advances across the northwest gulf. With
passage of the front, winds will trend more westerly while any
lingering showers and thunderstorms ending.
