.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 514 PM CDT Wed May 3 2017/
UPDATE...
Tornado Watch 190 has expired and Severe Thunderstorm Watch 192
has been issued for most of the area through midnight. The watch
covers all but the easternmost zones.
24
PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 441 PM CDT Wed May 3 2017/
SYNOPSIS...
Very busy day with severe weather this morning and flooding this
afternoon. A band of 5 to 8 inches of rainfall fell from northeast
Hardin County across southern Jasper and Newton Counties into
Calcasieu and Jeff Davis Parishes in southwest LA. Several reports
of flooding have been received, with significant flooding
affecting portions of Lake Charles requiring issuance of a Flash
Flood Emergency.
Additional storms continue to develop acrs northern portions of
the CWA ahead of a cold front that extends from the TX/LA border
west of SHV southwest toward Austin.
24
DISCUSSION...
The risk of severe weather and flooding continues across the area
this evening until the passage of the cold front. A tornado watch
remains in effect through 5 PM and an additional watch is likely
to be issued for the evening hours. The Flash Flood Watch remains
in effect through Thursday morning as an additional 3 to 5 inches
of rainfall will be possible as the convection north of the area
evolves into a squall line. Left the wind advisory in effect
across the coastal parishes and county as gusty southerly winds
will continue ahead of the front. The southerly flow will allow
water to pile up along the coast, leading to possible minor
coastal flooding this evening.
The potent upper level low and sfc cold front is expected to
move through the area this evening, and eventually east of the
region by 3 to 4 AM. This will bring an end to all the hazards
over the land zones as the drier air moves into the region. High
pres will build in behind the front overnight into Thursday bringing
much cooler and drier weather to the region for the next several
days.
24
MARINE...
MODERATE TO STRONG SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE
TONIGHT AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. THE INCREASED ONSHORE FLOW WILL
LEAD TO ELEVATED TIDES OF 1.5 TO 2.0 FEET ABOVE PREDICTED LEVELS
THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. THE FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
COASTAL WATERS AFTER MIDNIGHT, WITH WINDS SHIFTING TO THE
NORTHWEST AND STRENGTHENING. NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL ACCOMPANY THE FRONT AS IT MOVES THROUGH. MODERATE TO STRONG
OFFSHORE FLOW IS EXPECTED THURSDAY THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION, WITH WINDS GRADUALLY SHIFTING TO
THE SOUTH BY SUNDAY.
