Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lake Charles LA 314 AM CST Fri Dec 6 2019

DISCUSSION. Short term. Today through Saturday

Main forecast issue will be POPs over the next 6-12 hours.

Mid and high level clouds continue over the area. Temperatures were mainly in the 50s . except for lower 60s across parts of southeast Texas. Water vapor is showing nicely an upper disturbance moving into the Arklatx area. Widely scattered showers were observed over northern Louisiana and a few showers move through central Louisiana before sunrise. For now, will maintain low POPs over Acadiana this morning. With rain chances ending this morning, prefrontal trough will move through the area. Low level westerly wind component and subsidence will allow for a much warmer afternoon. Temperatures should reach well into the 70s . and could climb into the 80s especially over eastern areas. Cooler air will surge over the area tonight. Lows tonight will be mainly in the 50s. Highs will be in the 60s on Saturday. Dry weather is forecasted but weak upper disturbances will provide mid to upper high level cloudiness.

Long Term. Saturday night through Friday Will maintain dry weather Sunday night as surface ridge slowly moves into the southeast U.S. Upper trough will slowly traverse through the central U.S. early next week. Upper disturbances rotating around this trough and approaching frontal boundary will bring a chance for showers beginning as early as Monday. But it appears best chance will be on Monday night and Tuesday with FROPA. Post frontal rain is expected as 850mb frontal boundary will lag behind surface front.

POPs will be a challenge for Wednesday through Friday. Have opted to follow a model blend forecast with low POPs even some individual models are trending much drier for Wednesday and Thursday. Given a fast upper zonal flow, believe a few showers would be possible with passing short waves.

Temperatures will be near or above normal early next week but will forecast them below normal for mid and late week.

MARINE. At this time, no significant marine hazards are forecasted with cold front over the waters tonight. SCEC conditions may develop offshore tonight but if they occur, will likely last only through early Saturday.

Surface ridge will slowly work through the area this weekend with weak onshore flow developing. May see some modest strengthening of onshore flow on Monday before FROPA, but believe moderate to strong northerly flow will develop after FROPA on Tuesday. Increased marine winds from model blend forecasts as thermal gradient could bring wind gusts offshore to gale force.

PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS. AEX 76 48 63 44 / 10 0 0 0 LCH 77 52 66 49 / 10 0 0 0 LFT 79 53 66 49 / 20 0 0 0 BPT 76 52 66 50 / 0 0 0 0

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
