What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Shreveport, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 7, 7:19 PM CDT, 1 hour 28 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 7, 7:19 PM CDT, 1 hour 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
719 PM CDT Mon Jun 7 2021

.SHORT TERM...
Zone update just sent for the expiration of SVR Watch #242 for
portions of Deep E TX and the Srn/Ern sections of NCntrl LA.

15

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions will continue this evening over much of the region,
as the lingering areas of convection gradually continues to
diminish from W to E across the Srn and Ern sections of NCntrl LA.
However, a MCV has shifted ENE and is centered near TXK as of
00Z, which will focus additional convection redevelopment later
this evening through the overnight hours across SW AR/extreme SE
OK. Much of this convection should remain focused near and N of
TXK/ELD, but have inserted VCTS mention at TXK after 06Z.
Meanwhile, low MVFR cigs should develop by/after 06Z across the
region, with IFR cigs possible after 09Z. Slow improvement to cigs
are expected by mid-morning, although sct convection should again
redevelop after 12Z across E TX which will advance E into N LA by
mid/late morning through the afternoon. Have included VCTS mention
for the N LA terminals for the afternoon, with the convection
gradually diminishing from W to E late in the period. S winds
6-10kts will continue tonight through Tuesday. /15/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 236 PM CDT Mon Jun 7 2021/

SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Tuesday Night/

Line of thunderstorms about to enter NW LA trailing south and
southwest into Deep Texas attm is mostly sub-severe but cannot
rule out some severe winds with it as it continues marching
eastward this afternoon. Airmass ahead of it has become very
unstable with CAPE pushing 4000 J/KG even though Deep Layer Shear
is rather week. Propagation alone, along with the wet soils we
have in place suggests that we will likely continue to see
sporadic trees down for a few more hours with the watch expiring
at 7 pm. There may even be an isolated tornado threat across
mainly Southwest Arkansas where low level winds are slightly
backed compared to the wind field across N LA ahead of the line.
Fortunately the line is moving sufficiently enough that flooding
is not an immediate concern but that concern could really ramp up
late this evening through the overnight hours tonight.

Some high res solutions, including the 3KM NAM is hinting at an
area of much heavier QPF developing late tonight, somewhere across
the Middle Red River Valley of NE TX, SE OK and SW AR. This
appears to be co-located with the parent MCV spinning across N TX
attm and/or the base of the upper trough itself that we have been
dealing with for days. Could easily see an area of rainfall
somewhere across the Middle Red River Basin, north of Shreveport
exceeding 5 inches overnight through Tuesday Morning. This is far
from certain as this kind of nocturnal convection is highly
dependent on the development of a low level nocturnal jet and the
current convection moving through our region could disrupt the
development of this jet overnight. The current Flash Flood Watch
runs through 12z Tue and if we do see the heavier nocturnal
rainfall overnight across our northern third, then the watch would
likely need to be extended beyond 12z Tue but will allow future
shifts to make this call.

Thanks for the coordination today WPC, SPC, FWD, LZK. Updated
package already sent...13.

&&

LONG TERM.../Wednesday through Sunday Night/

Lingering convection possible across Arkansas and Louisiana in the
wake of an upper-trough that is forecast to linger across the Mid-
Mississippi River Valley at the start of the period. An upper-ridge
gradually building east across Central Texas will support a warmer
and drier forecast across east Texas and southeast Oklahoma.

Upper-ridge to finally build far enough eastward to place the entire
ArkLaTex into a hot and dry regime with temperatures on Friday and
Saturday forecast to climb into the lower 90s.

Otherwise, a weak frontal boundary will shift south across the
region late in the weekend bringing a renewed chance of showers and
thunderstorms along with slightly cooler temperatures.
