AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
458 PM CST SUN NOV 16 2014
.DISCUSSION...
RAIN AND STORMS HAVE BEEN A LITTLE SLOW TO REACH THE FORECAST
AREA. THE LEADING EDGE OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE JUST
NOW REALLY GETTING INTO THE BATON ROUGE AREA. STORMS TODAY HAVE
BEEN BELOW SEVERE LIMITS ACROSS OUR AREA HOWEVER THE STORMS STILL
HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME SEVERE THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.
WITH THAT BEING SAID THERE REMAINS A TORNADO WATCH FOR PORTIONS OF
THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH 10 PM. RAIN AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE
THROUGHOUT THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. WE ARE STILL EXPECTING
ONE TO THREE INCHES OF RAINFALL WITH THIS FRONT HOWEVER IT LOOKS
LIKE IT WILL BE MORE OF A LOCAL ISSUE MORE SO THAN A WIDESPREAD
RAIN EVENT THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. LATEST MESOSCALE MODELS
CONTINUE TO SHOW THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING THROUGH THE
AREA AND THEY DO NOT REALLY PUSH THE RAIN OUT OF THE FORECAST AREA
UNTIL MID MORNING MONDAY. AFTER THE FRONT EXPECT COLDER DRIER AIR
TO MOVE INTO THE AREA. WITH THE COLD AIR ADVECTION BEHIND THE
FRONT EXPECT WINDS TO BE ELEVATED ACROSS THE AREA...ESPECIALLY
SOUTH OF LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN. HAVE ISSUED A WIND ADVISORY FOR
MONDAY FOR AREAS SOUTH OF LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN FOR WINDS OF 20 TO 30
MPH WITH A FEW HIGHER GUSTS POSSIBLE.
HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE FORECAST AREA TUESDAY AND WITH COLD
AIR ALOFT WE EXPECT FREEZING TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT MONDAY AND
ALSO ON TUESDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO DROP INTO
THE MID 20S NORTH OF THE LAKE AND THAT WOULD PUT US INTO THE HARD
FREEZE CATEGORY TUESDAY MORNING. EXPECT A FREEZE TO EVEN MAKE IT
DOWN INTO THE NEW ORLEANS METRO AREAS AS WELL TUESDAY MORNING. SO
LOOK FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF MORE FREEZE WARNINGS TO COME OUT OVER
THE NEXT DAY OR SO AS THE COLD AIR APPROACHES. THIS FREEZE WILL BE
MORE PROLONGED THAN THE PREVIOUS FREEZE LAST WEEK. HIGHS TUESDAY
WILL STRUGGLE TO MAKE IT OUT OF THE MID 40S EVERYWHERE. SOME
MODERATION WILL OCCUR BY THURSDAY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER SYSTEM
BRINGING A CHANCE OF RAIN FRIDAY AND NEXT WEEKEND. 13/MH
&&
.AVIATION...
EXPECT MVFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS
BEFORE SOME IFR CONDITIONS MOVE IN WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY.
EXPECT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE MONDAY
MORNING. WINDS WILL BE ELEVATED OUT OF THE SOUTH AND WILL SHIFT
TO THE NORTHWEST LATE TONIGHT BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. EXPECT WINDS
TO REMAIN ELEVATED BEHIND THE FRONT ON MONDAY OUT OF THE NORTH
SUSTAINED WINDS OF 20 KNOTS POSSIBLE. 13/MH
&&
.MARINE...
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT. HAVE
MADE A FEW CHANGES WITH THE HEADLINES OVER THE COASTAL WATERS. A
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT TONIGHT FOR ALL OF THE COASTAL
WATERS AND LAKES THROUGH 6 AM. WINDS BEHIND THE FRONT WILL BE
ELEVATED WITH THE COLD AIR ADVECTION AND THAT SHOULD YIELD GALE
FORCE GUST OUT OVER THE OPEN COASTAL WATERS. HAVE ISSUED A GALE
WARNING FOR THESE GUSTS STARTING 6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH
TUESDAY MORNING. WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN INTO THE 25 TO 30 KNOT
RANGE MONDAY WITH FREQUENT STRONGER GUSTS UP TO 35 KNOTS. THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL BEGIN TO RELAX ON TUESDAY WITH CONDITIONS
GRADUALLY IMPROVING AS HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE AREA.

2 tornado, 1 thunderstorm wind. Local standard time, as filed.
A NWS storm survey found some spotty minor damage southwest of Walker. Shingles were removed from several roofs and a few small trees were snapped. The estimated peak wind speed was 65 to 75 mph.
The meso-cyclone thunderstorm that produced a weak tornado south of Walker produced another weak tornadoes north of Livingston. A NWS damage survey discovered tree damage along Louisiana Highway 1036, including several pine trees that were snapped at the base. Estimated wind speed was 86 to 95 mph with a maximum path width of 300 yards.
The St. Helena Parish Emergency Manager relayed a report from the local electric utility company of several trees blown down by thunderstorm winds in the vicinity of Highway 1036 and Highway 441 near Montpelier. The event time was estimated based on radar.
