What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this excessive heat warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS New Orleans, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this excessive heat warning went out at Jul 29, 3:29 AM CDT, 10 hours 11 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 29, 3:29 AM CDT, 10 hours 11 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
329 AM CDT Thu Jul 29 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
Upper ridge centered over Kansas early this morning, with the
surface high centered over eastern Oklahoma. Ridging extends
southeastward toward Georgia. Water vapor imagery indicates
highest precipitable water values continue to be suppressed south
of Interstate 20. Would note that 00z LIX sounding precipitable
water value of 2.43 inches was probably contaminated to some
extent as there was convection in the area at launch.
At 3 AM CDT, temperatures were in the mid 70s to lower 80s for
much of the area. There was an isolated thunderstorm noted around
Breton Sound/Lake Borgne. It's usually about this time that
convection gets going in the coastal waters, so areal coverage may
have increased by the time the actual forecast goes out.
&&
.SHORT TERM (through Saturday night)...
Main concern will continue to be heat stress through at least
Saturday. However, isolated to scattered convection will have at
least a limited threat of strong winds during the afternoon hours.
Plan to keep Heat Advisory in place as currently configured for
today and tomorrow. All indications are that any convection should
be limited to mainly the afternoon hours both days, and a bit
concerned that current forecast PoPs are too high. This is
supported by forecast soundings showing convective temperatures in
the mid 90s at most locations. NAM solution that is carrying
higher chances today may have initialized precipitable water
values too high with the 00z LIX sounding noted above. Remaining
model solutions have lower precipitable water values that would
support lower chances. 12z flight should be quite informative in
this respect. Forecast soundings show enough low level dry air to
be at least somewhat concerned about downbursts, as reflected by
DCAPE values well in excess of 1000 both afternoons. Heat index
values look to max out in the 108-112 range in most areas. Can't
rule out isolated spots exceeding that.
Saturday is somewhat more questionable when it comes to precip
chances. GFS solution carrying higher precipitation chances than
the ECMWF and other solutions. This appears to be due to an
easterly wave in the northern Gulf of Mexico that is a little
closer to the coast than the other solutions, where upper ridging
continues to exert more control. If the GFS is correct,
temps will be lower and thunderstorms more of a threat. If it
isn't...Saturday could actually be the hottest, most impactful of
the 3 days. At this point, leaning toward the drier solution. 35
&&
.LONG TERM (Sunday and beyond)...
Pattern change on the way possibly beginning late Sunday but
especially for next week. Rather strong agreement by the
operational models, ensemble means, and the NBM. With that
confidence is increasing that the heat we have been dealing with
will come to an end and widespread rain returning, possibly a
little more than we would like but it will be cooler. Overall no
real areas of opportunity to deviate from the NBM as it looks good
with both temps and PoPs.
Sunday may be the last day with that oppressive heat however, if
things speed up Sunday may not be too bad then. Starting off the day
the highly amplified ridge over the rockies will extend north well
into western Canada and southeast into the eastern GOM. However,
with that a deepening L/W trough will be taking over the eastern
half of the CONUS with a strong s/w dropping down the back side
through the Mid MS Valley and towards the Lower MS Valley late
Sunday and Sunday night. This s/w will help to dig the L/W trough
even more and likely cause a break in the ridge across the Lower MS
Valley and even into the northwestern GOM by Monday morning. This
will try to drive a cold front towards the area but that will not
make it here till Monday so ahead of it will still be quite muggy
and warm. The ridge may hold on just enough to keep convection more
scattered and h925 temps of 23-25C would mix down to 32-34C leading
to lower to mid 90s. Some compressional heating out ahead of the
front may help lead to mid 90s as well. Biggest issue with getting
those highs would be cloud cover and rain which I am sure no one
will really be complaining about. Heat Advisory may be needed for some
areas but a lot will depend on timing.
Next week the pattern change will be in full swings. L/W trough will
dominate everything from the Plains to the east coast. This will
drive that front into the area and could even drop it into the GOM
by Tuesday. Problem is that front may lay up right over the area or
just south into the Gulf. Either way would lead to cooler and wetter
conditions however, the front laying up over the region could lead
to heavier rain. Monday and Tuesday currently have PoPs of 70-90%
already and the rain could continue for another day or two. If the
L/W trough holds across the eastern CONUS through the week like
advertised, we may finally see some actual dry air move in around
mid week with PWs dropping below 1.5" and dewpoints possibly into
the 60s. /CAB/
&&
.AVIATION (valid through 12z Friday)...
Clouds around FL050 at KMCB early this morning may prevent any
lower conditions developing, so it should primarily remain a VFR
forecast outside of convection. All indications are that any
significant development should hold off until beyond 18z. Will
keep things at the VCTS level until a favored terminal or
terminals becomes apparent. Most convection should die off during
the early evening hours. 35
&&
.MARINE...
Main concerns through the forecast period will continue to be
convective threats. Over the open waters, that threat will
primarily be during the late night/morning hours each day. For the
lakes and sounds, it will be more closely related to convection
over land, afternoon and early evening. 35
