AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS/BATON ROUGE LA 935 AM CDT MON JUN 14 2004 .UPDATE... UPDATED TO DROP SCA WEST OF MISSISSIPPI RIVER. .DISCUSSION...SOME ACTIVE WEATHER REMAINS IN STORE FOR THE FORECAST AREA BEGINNING TODAY. A DISORGANIZED AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IN THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF CONTINUES TO PUSH TOWARD THE CWA/PWA WITH SOME OUTLYING RAIN BANDS ALREADY MOVING THROUGH. THE ETA AND THE GFS ARE QUITE DIFFERENT ON WHERE TO TRACK THE MAIN SURFACE FEATURE WITH THE ETA TAKING A SIGNIFICANTLY MORE WESTERN TRACK THAN THE GFS. BASED ON THE LATEST RUC ANALYSIS...CURRENT THINKING IS TOO LEAN A BIT MORE WITH THE GFS AS SUPPORTED BY HPC GUIDANCE ALTHOUGH PLAN TO EXPAND THE FFA A BIT MORE TOWARD THE WEST TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY PERSISTENT RAIN BANDS MAKING THEIR WAY WESTWARD. THIS WOULD THEN HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT OF ENERGY MAKING ITS WAY NORTHWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION MAINLY ACROSS SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA LEADING INTO SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI. DEEP SOUTHERLY FLOW REMAINS IN PLAY PAST TODAY WITH THE FOCUS FOR RAIN SHIFTING TOWARD THE UPPER LEVELS. THE LATEST NWP GUIDANCE HAS AN UPPER LOW DROPPING INTO THE WESTERN GULF ON TUESDAY WITH EMBEDDED SHEAR POCKETS TRAVERSING NORTHWARD AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM. THIS WILL LEAD TO A GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS BEFORE THE TROUGH WEAKENS AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE TRIES TO REBUILD ACROSS THE LOWER SOUTHEAST. && PRELIMINARY POINT NUMBERS...
