Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
519 AM CDT Mon Jul 27 2020

.SHORT TERM...

Unsettled pattern will persist through at least Tuesday with PW
values continuing to be well over 2 inches as weak disturbances
rotate around Bermuda high in the northern Gulf. This along with
an upper level Low over central and western portions of LA will
bring increased lift and instability into the area with locally
heavy rainfall possible throughout the daytime hours today. The
heaviest rainfall is expected to occur during the morning and
afternoon hours with another day of drying conditions expected by
late afternoon and evening as atmosphere gets worked over with
little to no sunshine for recovery afterward. With that in
mind...temperatures will remain very pleasant again today with
highs only in the low to mid 80s. An expected repeat scenario
possible on Tuesday as little change in overall pattern expected.
Meanwhile...upper level trough will begin to drop into the western
Great Lakes beginning today. This will be the key to a break in
the current pattern. Upper level trough will move eastward towards
the northeastern USA by the middle and latter part of the week.
Upper level high pressure will expand and slowly drift westward
through the Gulf during the middle and latter part of the week
bringing a drying trend with conditions returning to more typical
summer conditions. Highs are expected to return to the lower 90s
by Thursday with increased sunshine and scattered afternoon and
evening thunderstorms.

.LONG TERM...
High pressure will remain in place over the central Gulf through
the end of the week. An upper level trough will drop out of
Canada near the upper Mississippi Valley and swing across the
Great Lakes region Wednesday, then shift east towards the
Atlantic. This will first push the upper ridge centered in the
western Atlantic southward. The CWA will be in an area of weakness
between that high pressure and another near the US Desert
Southwest. Towards the W/Th time frame, the far western side of
that Atlantic ridge will break off and become centered over the
eastern GOM. Depending on how strong that smaller ridge is will
determine home far it extends north and shields the local area
from rainfall. The current forecast does still contain chance POPs
as models haven't been particularly consistent with how much
subsidence develops locally. An unseasonably low latitude sharp
shortwave trough digs through the Arklatex and into the southern
Mississippi River Valley by the weekend. This will bring an
increased chance of thunderstorms into the area. A few storms
could be strong to severe over the weekend if this pattern hold
true.

&&

.AVIATION...
Heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms will continue to move
inland affecting all terminals by mid morning. A repeat of Sunday
will occur on Monday with prevailing light showers after 14z and
continuing through 23z. Winds have not been much of an impact but
IFR to LIFR ceilings can be expected as well as temporary
visibilities down to 1sm or less on Monday.

&&

.MARINE...
High pressure will remain over the eastern Gulf bringing a
continued onshore flow to the coastal waters through the period.
Winds will remain fairly light through the period with seas
remaining 3 feet or less through the remainder of the week.
Unsettled pattern to persist through the first half the week with
showers and thunderstorms...returning to more typical summer
weather pattern by late week with mainly nocturnal convection in
the offshore waters.
