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 Jun 6, 9:30 AM CDT, 1 hour 7 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 9:30 AM CDT, 1 hour 7 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lake Charles LA
930 AM CDT Tue Jun 6 2017

.UPDATE...
Scattered showers ongoing across parts of acadiana this morning
while the rest of the region remains deceptively quiet. Expect
scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms to develop
area wide by late this morning and into this afternoon. A cold
front will move through the area tonight bringing rain chances to
an end and ushering in cooler, drier air.

Lowered POPS a bit across southeast Texas this morning to better
align with radar observations, but the rest of the forecast
package is in good shape.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 619 AM CDT Tue Jun 6 2017/

AVIATION...An upper level low will continue to create scattered
to numerous showers and storms through the day. Lower vis and
ceilings can be expected. Conditions can be expected to improve
through the second half of the TAF period.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 429 AM CDT Tue Jun 6 2017/

DISCUSSION...
Latest upper air analysis/water vapor satellite imagery showed an
upper trof axis over the NW Gulf Coast region, with several
embedded smaller scale vortices embedded within its cyclonic flow.
SFC analysis revealed a broad low offshore the SC/SE LA coast.

Isolated to scattered convection has developed overnight within a
still very moist airmass (PWATS near 2 inches per KLCH 00Z RAOB)
amid the deep layer trof. While the upper trof and associated SFC
low are expected to continue slowly meandering to the east,
increasing diurnal instability is expected to yield more numerous
showers and thunderstorms. Widespread/organized heavy rain is not
expected, but convection will continue to be capable of high
rainfall rates which could yield locally heavy rain events. As
these features slowly move off to the east tonight and begin to
become absorbed within a more significant trof dropping south
through the Great Lakes, deep northerly flow will aid in driving a
cold front through the region, finally ridding us of this
moisture laden airmass and bringing an end to the recent wet
period.

Cooler temperatures (particularly at night) and much drier air
will prevail for the rest of the work week and into the start of
the weekend. A deep moist fetch returning by the latter half of
the weekend into early next week, coupled with at least a weakness
aloft (ECMWF) or a more defined trof (GFS), will lead to
increasing rain chances SUN and MON.

Weak surface low pressure exiting the eastern waters early this
morning has resulted in a light offshore flow developing. These
north winds will increase tonight into early Wednesday as a cold
front pushes offshore. Exercise caution headlines may be required
for parts of the Gulf waters. Showers and thunderstorms will
continue to be possible until the passage of the front, with dry
weather expected to prevail thereafter into the start of the
weekend.
