Did it verify

Verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow matched 10 storm reports to this flash flood warning; the first came 10 minutes after it went out.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Lake Charles Mun, LA (KLCH), launched 12:00Z, 5.8 hours before the alert went out and 150 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash 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 flash flood warning went out at Jul 30, 11:53 AM CDT, 52 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 30, 11:53 AM CDT, 52 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lake Charles LA
1153 AM CDT Tue Jul 30 2019

.UPDATE...
Apologies for the delayed update as conditions have been rather
active this morning. A potent convective complex has been moving
acrs cntl LA, producing heavy rainfall with high rainfall rates as
well as some isolated pockets of strong to marginally svr storms.
This activity was occurring in association with a midlevel impulse
combined with strong divergence aloft and a weak boundary/remnant
outflow bisecting the area from SW to NE. This system is expected
to travel west to southwest acrs the area today, with heavy
rainfall and possible flooding the primary impacts, although
isolated strong wind gusts will also be possible. Some storms
could approach svr limits but the threat for svr weather will be
isolated at best.

Updated POPS/WX this morning to reflect radar trends and latest
CAM guidance. Given the widespread rainfall acrs cntl LA this
morning and additional showers still traversing the area as well
as cloud cover, temperatures acrs cntl LA have been running cooler
than fcst and are not expected to climb much today. Updated
temperatures to account for obs and lowered aftn highs a few
degrees primarily acrs the eastern half of the area.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 615 AM CDT Tue Jul 30 2019/

AVIATION...Areas of rain with scattered storms are over the
region this morning, however minimal impact is occurring around
the terminals at the current time. This will change as the morning
progresses and coverage increases. Storms will remain in vicinity
through the day with periodic lower vis and ceilings possible.
Conditions will improved this evening with the decrease in diurnal
heating and a decrease in coverage. Winds will generally light
and southwest during the period.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 422 AM CDT Tue Jul 30 2019/

DISCUSSION...

Short Term [Today through Wednesday]

GOES 16 upper level water vapor imagery indicates a trough
digging into the Mississippi River Valley this morning. At the
surface, a cold front extended from the Great Lakes southwestward
into Central Oklahoma. Both of these features are expected to
continue pushing into the lower portions of the Mississippi River
Valley and into the CWA today. Both the 00Z KLCH sounding and
satellite observations indicate that PWATs across the CWA are
sitting around 2". The combination of surface and upper level
support for ascent with this deep layer moisture will result in
numerous showers and thunderstorms across the region today.
Locally heavy rainfall will be possible with any of the stronger
showers and thunderstorms. As a result, WPC has highlighted the
entire area in a Marginal Risk for flash flooding.

Convection is expected to decrease in coverage with the loss of
daytime heating at sunset. However, the combination of the upper
level trough, associated surface front, and PWATs of 1.5"-2" will
persist through tonight and into Wednesday. Therefore, slight
chance PoPs were keep through the entire overnight period. Daytime
heating during the day Wednesday will likely result in another
round of numerous showers and thunderstorms from mid-morning into
the early evening hours. Convection should then dissipate by late
Wednesday evening.

Long Term [Thursday through Tuesday]

Model guidance is in general agreement that an amplified upper
level height pattern will be in place across the CONUS with a
trough axis centered along the Appalachians and a ridge axis over
the Rockies. The CWA is forecast to be squished between these two
features through the weekend. While this will result in some upper
level subsidence over the region, PWAT values are forecast to
remain near to slightly above normal. Therefore, convection will
become less widespread on Thursday but the typical summertime
diurnal pattern of convection will continue through the weekend.

There are some indications that early next week the trough axis
will retrograde back towards the region as a shortwave digs
southward from the Canadian Prairies. This could potentially
support increasing chances for convection during the early to
middle part of next week. However, the is a fair amount of
amplitude uncertainty in the trough during this time frame. For
now, maintained climatological PoPs for the later half of the
forecast and will wait to see if a better consensus develops with
respect to the evolution of the upper level trough early next
week.

MARINE...

Scattered to numerous thunderstorms are expected, mainly from mid
morning onward as an upper level trough moves over the region.
Severe weather is not expected and the main threat from any
thunderstorms will be cloud to water lightning and gusty winds.
The upper level trough will remain over the region for much of the
upcoming week. As a result, there will be daily chances for
showers and thunderstorms, mainly late at night into the morning
hours. Meanwhile, the pressure gradient is expected to remain weak
over the coastal waters. This will cause winds and seas to be
light through early next week.
