What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at Mar 29, 6:47 PM CDT, 2 hours 3 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 29, 6:47 PM CDT, 2 hours 3 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lake Charles LA
647 PM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017

.AVIATION...
Storms this evening continue to effect TAF locations this activity
is expected to continue through the next several hours. Storms are
moving to the northeast.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 506 PM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017/

UPDATE...
As coordination with SPC, have areal extended the Tornado Watch 98
into Rapides Parish, as convection may enter that area a little
sooner.

Rua

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 422 PM CDT Wed Mar 29 2017/

.SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL THROUGH THE EVENING INTO OVERNIGHT...
.HEAVY RAINFALL AND SEVERE POTENTIAL AGAIN OVER THE WEEKEND...

SYNOPSIS...
Will be brief as severe weather ongoing in the forecast area.
Tornado Watch is in effect until 9 pm for a majority of the
western portion of the forecast area. Enhanced Risk for Severe
Storms into the evening and overnight period.

Rua

DISCUSSION...
A vigorous storm system will be moving across the southern
plains tonight into early Thursday. Jet streak and strong positive
vorticity will be rounding the upper level system and across the
forecast for the evening into the overnight hours. Meanwhile,
strong low level jet and abundant gulf moisture will be in place.
Therefore, supercell clusters of thunderstorms will continue for
the remainder of the afternoon, possibly consolidating into a
squall line later this evening and overnight. All forms of severe
weather will be possible. Strong wind damage and large hail, with
a few tornadoes, as cells should have good rotation from the
elevated shear.

Dry slot should move in during the overnight hours quickly
tapering off activity by the morning hours.

A couple of fair weather days, until the next storm system
organizes and moves through the region. Looks like main event will
be late Sunday into early Monday, with heavy rainfall and severe
weather potential. However, GFS does show a lead short wave moving
across late Saturday and Saturday Night, that the ECMWF does not
pick up on. At this point will just have chance pops for that time
period before likely pops on late Sunday into Sunday Night.

Rua

MARINE...
Strong south winds will begin to decrease later tonight as the low
pressure system begins to depart the region and pressure gradient
relaxes.
