Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
1116 AM CST Sat Jan 27 2018
.AVIATION...
Complex situation with ongoing weather system currently moving
through the region. Large area of onshore flow moisture producing
widespread rainfall, mostly elevated convective and stratiform
acting on a triple point structure just above the boundary layer.
Surface based air just moving onshore to about Galliano to the
crow's foot of the MS Delta. General MVFR cigs and vsby most areas
but where rainfall is more focused and heavier, lowering to IFR
cigs in the KBTR area. These conditions should move east to impact
KHDC and possibly KASD in time between 19-22Z. Other locations
will probably prevail mainly MVFR to lower end VFR conditions
through about 06Z. Relaxing gradient wind, residual moisture and
cooling to water temperatures would favor hybrid
radiational/marine fog conditions developing mainly 06Z and
beyond, which may linger to around 15-16Z Sunday. 24/RR

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 715 AM CST Sat Jan 27 2018/
..SOUNDING DISCUSSION...
Despite just scattered light showers in the area at release the
profile is nearly saturated this morning. PW of 1.53 inches is at
the daily max for this time of year, which is indicative of the
heavy rain expected across the area today. Low level wind from
the southeast at 30 kts by 1000 feet is supplying plenty of Gulf
air. Winds switch to southwest at 800 mb, but are relatively weak
through mid levels. Hi res guidance this morning indicates the heavy
rain forecast across south LA is on track. Heaviest amounts will
be from any stronger cells or embedded storms that train SW to NE
just ahead of the surface trough today through this evening. 4 to 5
inches has fallen near Port Arthur, TX and far SW LA since
midnight.
Krautmann
PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 418 AM CST Sat Jan 27 2018/
SYNOPSIS...
Latest surface analysis showed a 1037mb high over along the
North Carolina coast with ridge axis extending southwest to east
Texas. In addition, a weak inverted trough was located over
northeast Gulf of Mexico. East to southeast flow has increased
surface dewpoint values from the mid 50s across southwest and
southern Mississippi and lower 60s along southeast Louisiana
coast. Regional radars revealed a large area of rain from upper
Texas coast to southwest Mississippi.
Upper air analysis showed a positively tilted broad trough over
the plains with embedded disturbances between Missouri and
northeast Texas and another between Mississippi and upper Texas
coast. Precipitable water field showed deeper moisture with values
of 1.5 inches along the Texas coast to southwest Louisiana and 1
inch values pooling along the main upper trough from east Texas to
southern Missouri.
DISCUSSION...
Precipitable water values will increase from southwest with 1.5
inches moisture axis shifting east across the forecast area this
afternoon. The area of rain is expected to shift east affecting
northwest zones or areas north and west of Lake Pontchartrain through
noon. The slow progression of moderate to heavy rainfall will
provide accumulation of 1 to 2 inches before noon. The area of
precip is expected to shift east. The approach the main trough
will begin to yield some progression east across the forecast area
this afternoon and this evening. However, the surface trough over
the northwest Gulf will provide lift and surface base instability
southwest and south of Lake Pontchartrain this morning through
early Sunday morning. Therefore, will maintain slight chance of
thunder through this period and provide better lift for heavier
rainfall today.
Some slow progression of the moisture is possible. Rainfall
totals through the event will likely range from 2 to 4 inches with
isolated higher amounts over Southeast Louisiana and Southern
Mississippi with highlighted area south and west of Lake
Pontchartrain. Surface trough will track east over with the main
upper level trough pushing the deep moisture axis east over the
Sunday.
Trough axis will finally push through Sunday afternoon with
moisture displaced east Sunday evening. The cold frontal passage
will occur Sunday night. Northwest flow will maintain a dry
period Monday through early Wednesday of next week. Another
system will dive in from northwest and tap gulf moisture across
the west gulf and eventually our forecast area Wednesday night
into Thursday. The upper level trough is not relatively strong. Passage
will be slow and rain chances will linger through Friday.
AVIATION...
Conditions range from IFR to VFR this morning with lower decks
moving in from west to east. Radar shows scattered light showers
tracking northeast across the area. Expect coverage and intensity to
increase later this morning. Heavy rainfall is expected to impact
terminals with VIS and CIGS dropping to VLIFR as the most intense
convection develops. Easterly winds will be higher with some gusts
over 20 knots at times at KGPT and possibly KNEW and KHUM as well.
Improving conditions possible by the end of this TAF period.
MEFFER
MARINE...
A broad upper level trough dropping out of Canada will bring a cold
front into and through the coastal waters as it amplifies over the
eastern half of the country. The local pressure gradient has
increased enough to support low end small craft wind speeds across
offshore waters. The long fetch has really enhanced wave production
and brought wave heights to around 8 feet in the outer waters.
These conditions should persist through the day before slowly
fading during the evening hours as the cold front approaches.
Thus, have SCA through today, then SCS through 06z. Post frontal
small craft conditions will be slow to develop, not coming in to
full effect until Sunday evening. Because its such a long period
between SCA conditions, will hold off on issuing the second one.
Headlines likely to be necessary for some or most of the waters
into through Tuesday as strong high pressure builds into the area.
Another system will affect the coastal waters around next Friday.
