The local office's own words before this tornado 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 tornado warning went out at Mar 30, 3:29 PM CDT, 6 hours 18 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 30, 3:29 PM CDT, 6 hours 18 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...CORRECTED
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
329 PM CDT Wed Mar 30 2022

.NEAR TERM...Through Tonight

The forecast for the severe weather this afternoon and evening is
still on track. A tornado watch is in effect for all of LA and
southern MS. The coastal MS counties and Pearl River county is
out of the watch right now but may be added as the line gets that
far east. Tornado and Severe Thunderstorm Warnings have been
issued by offices to the west with a few reports of structural and
tree damage. Ahead of the line, winds are already gusting 40-50
MPH which is already causing tree damage and power outages. It
won't take much more wind in the line to have severe storms and
cause more damage. This will be enhanced by some mid level drying.
The main threat is still damaging wind gusts in the line but
brief tornadoes within the line are still a possibility and there
is a history of those in the line.

Ahead of the line, showers have not been able to get going due to
a cap. This cap should continue to break which will enhance the
instability in front of the line, keeping the line strong to
severe as it moves into SE LA. There's already 60-70 knots of bulk
shear, with 30-40 knots of 0-1 km shear. The shear is there; the
question is the instability, which continues to increase each
hour.

Overall, there is really no change to our thoughts over the last
few days. The line is still expected to have severe winds (greater
than 58 MPH gust) when it moves through the region. The latest
timing for when the line gets to a parish/county is similar to
before, Wilkinson/Iberville/Pointe Coupee from now through 4PM,
Baton Rouge area 4-7, New Orleans 6-9 and the MS coast 8-10.
Remember to take severe thunderstorm warnings as serious as
tornado and get to an interior room if a warning is issued!

.SHORT TERM...Thursday through Saturday Night

By Thursday morning, the front will be off to the east with drier
and cooler air moving in and winds subsiding. Lows Thu night will
be in the mid 40s to lower 50s. Surface high pressure quickly
moves into the region but the previous front will stall over
the open Gulf. Rain looks to redevelop over the boundary from west
to east with the aid of a weak shortwave in zonal flow aloft.
This looks to be mostly Saturday evening and overnight. Highs and
lows will start to warm again as we go into Saturday.

.LONG TERM...Sunday through Wednesday

An upper trough is moving through the northeast on Sunday with a
lingering boundary along the Gulf Coast. High pressure will
continue to move southeast over the region. As the upper pattern
flattens, the surface high pressure will shift to the east but the
area will remain dry. The next trough will start to dig into the
desert southwest Monday afternoon. With a surface low forming
ahead of it, a front and its precip will start to move in Monday
night and move through by Wednesday morning.

Highs will be generally in the lower 80s through the long term.
Lows will be in the 50s Sat and Sun night and then warming into
the lower 60s.

&&

.AVIATION...
A mix of MVFR and VFR conditions are occurring with conditions
probably settling to IFR/VFR as the rain moves in. Wind gusts are
gusting as high as 40 knots with sustained anywhere from 20-30
knots. Occasionally higher values are possible. A line of strong
to severe thunderstorms is going to move through this evening and
the line was timed out with TEMPO groups. Wind gusts of 50-60kts
are possible with that line, if not higher than that. Behind the
line, winds shift NW and will be less than 15 knots.

&&

.MARINE...
Gale Warning will remain as is, with conditions relaxing on
Thursday. Exercise Caution headlines likely to be appropriate at
times over the weekend over the open waters. Likely to need Small
Craft Advisories ahead of the next large scale trough around Monday
night or Tuesday next week.
