Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

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.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 8, 11:25 PM CST, 46 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
1125 PM CST Mon Jan 8 2024

...NEW AVIATION...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1007 PM CST Mon Jan 8 2024

After releasing a special sounding just a little while ago, it
appears most of the convection at least north of the lake is on
the elevated side. For this activity to become surface based, some
moistening at the surface and or warming needs to take place.
Strong WAA continues, but this may be influenced by the
lake...which was an overall limiting factor for severe potential
overnight. That said, the Tornado Watch continues through the
overnight hours for the entire region. As a line of convection
moves east we will likely be able to trim the watch little by
little.

As the line of storms and cold front move through, winds will
shift to a more westerly or northwesterly direction. The front
will likely move into the NOLA area around midnight and across
the MS Gulf Coast by around 3am or so. Strong gusty winds and
tornadoes will remain the primary concerns. Additionally, flash
flooding will continue to remain possible, however, the overall
threat will continue to decrease behind the line of convection.

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Tuesday night)
Issued at 415 PM CST Mon Jan 8 2024

A vigorous storm system is moving across the TX/OK panhandles and
will continue east through the Central Plains tonight. A surface low
associated with the upper low is located just east of it with an
appendant cold front draped across East Texas. Surface obs show
the front to be right along the I-35 corridor and racing eastward.
At the same time, a warm front extends eastward from this cold
front. It appears this boundary is right along the extreme
southern LA coast along a line from LCH to BVE. Shower and
thunderstorm coverage has rapidly expanded SW to NE across the
forecast area over the last few hours. Surface obs, model
soundings and SPC meso page all show the vast majority of the area
at 21Z is still north of the warm front which means inversion is
keeping storms from being surface based. The only except is right
on the LA coastal parishes where the actual warm front is.
Regardless, there's still ample instability aloft with those
levels cooling while the surface still warms. The main threats for
storms north of the boundary are are large hail and heavy
rainfall. The warm sector to move farther north with time
providing lift and ample low level instability as it removes the
inversion. Tight pressure gradient from 994mb surface low will
keep inflow strong. This combined with strong flow from the
approaching upper low/trough have resulted in quite high wind
shear and helicity. Thus, the potential for multiple tornadoes,
possibly strong, will be possible through this evening for storms
in the warm sector to just north of the warm front.

The aforementioned cold front racing eastward across Texas is
expected reach the western side of the CWA before midnight and exit
the eastern side before sunrise Tuesday. Yet more strong/severe
storms will be possible along this boundary with QLCS tornadoes
possible.

No changes made to current hazards out for the area. Current winds
may be a bit less than forecast but suspect that'll change as the
warm front lifts north and better mixing takes place. For the Flood
Watch, forecast still looks on track for areal 3-5 inches with
pockets of 50% more and isolated locations with double that
possible. Coastal flooding could be quite impactful on coastlines
perpendicular to the winds as high tides fall right at the same time
as peak winds this evening and overnight.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through Sunday night)
Issued at 415 PM CST Mon Jan 8 2024

The deepening upper level low should be crossing the mid Mississippi
River Valley around 18Z Tuesday before reaching the southern
periphery of the Great Lakes by Wednesday morning. This will bring
the apex of the trough into the western edge of the CWA 18z Tuesday
as well and the likely timing when all showers/storms are completely
east of the entire forecast area. The back edge of the rain shield
may still be over coastal MS and extreme southeastern LA 12-15Z, but
after that the rain should be over. Although rain ends, some weather
impacts continue. It's quite evident looking at model surface
pressure plot with time on Tuesday that the pressure gradient will
remain very tight throughout the day. This would support relatively
strong winds even over land areas. Even though conditions may be
borderline, have above normal confidence that Wind Advisory
conditions will persist throughout the day across the entire CWA and
will be extending Wind Advisory with current forecast package to
reflect that.

Much more benign weather expected Wednesday as trough/low ejects
east and zonal flow to slight ridging slides across the region.
Fairly rapid moderation of temps on Thursday as post front ridge
moves east of the local area and southerly flow increases. Should
see temps jump from low/mid 50s to closing in on 70 degrees for
highs on Thursday. This will be the lead-up to the next approaching
system late in the week. Models continue to lower confidence in the
forecast with a lack of run-to-run consistency in terms of timing
and position of the through. Regardless, will need to watch for
severe potential yet again.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1121 PM CST Mon Jan 8 2024

Convection continues to move east through the region. East of I55
terminals have been mostly quiet, but IFR/MVFR conditions continue
despite the lack of rain/convection. Will hold onto VIS/CIG
reductions through the overnight period and into early Tuesday
morning. Conditions should begin to improve during the day from
west to east across the region. Winds will also transition to a
westerly and northwesterly direction in time and remain gusty with
some gusts exceeding 30kts at times. (Frye)

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 415 PM CST Mon Jan 8 2024

A 994mb surface low over the eastern Texas Panhandle will be quickly
moving eastward across Oklahoma this evening and overnight, crossing
the Mississippi River mid morning Tuesday. A strong surface high is
embedded within a broad upper level ridge east of the region. This
setup is creating a very tight pressure gradient over the local
coastal waters. That gradient will tighten even more as the low
moves east and deepens. In response to this, very strong (Gale to
Storm Force) winds are/will shortly be developing over all of the
local coastal waters. Open Gulf water obs are already showing
sustained 30-40 knot winds with higher gusts. Stronger winds are
possible before the front reaches the area. Once it does, an abrupt
wind direction change is expected from SE to WNW. Strong to severe
storms will also accompany this cold front while the front races
east tonight. A very peaked confused sea condition is expected with
FROPA. Little change in wind speeds behind the front as the pressure
gradient remains tight for quite awhile. Thus, have added a Gale
Warning and Small Craft Advisory to the tale end of this event as
wind speeds gradually fall Tuesday night. All marine headlines may
be lowered by mid week before the next front impacts the area
starting the end of the week.
