(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus64 klix 210914 afdlix area forecast discussion national weather service new orleans la 414 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 Short term A few sh TS developing this morning and this trend should continue into the daylight hours. The daily thunderstorm routine will remain through today. But instead of getting drier, we will begin to see a deeper surge of moisture from the gulf moving into the area. The first of these comes Thursday. A second surge moves in for Friday. Pw values remain around 2.25" but Thursday will be the transition to a more tropical environment as pw values will rise to around 2.6". This remains the case into Friday and could even remain into Saturday. Friday should be a heavier rainfall day somewhere along the gulf coast since a better focus will be provided in the form of an easterly wave which will help cause 850mb convergence and lift. This could cause some flooding concerns for those that find themselves where the bulk of this moisture moves ashore. The area moving in on Friday is the tropical environment with an abundance of sh TS near the yucatan this morning. This moisture is on the east side of a tutt low but will eventually be funneled north along the tropical wave moving west over the central gulf. There are some global models that are wanting to bring a cold front with an acutal thermal gradient into the area by next week. But that is too far out to give any credence at the moment. Aviation Currently, only flight restriction is at khum, where there are MVFR ceilings. They did have a brief period of ifr conditions with fog, but with the cloud deck moving in, fog threat should lessen somewhat. Main concern for the day will be convective potential. Threat will increase beyond 15z as daytime heating gets going, with primary threat after 18z. For now, will carry vcts in forecast. The few cells we've seen over the last couple of hours have been very slow moving, and may be more propagation than movement. Localized ifr conditions in thunderstorms with 30 knot gusts, for the most part. Would expect most tsra to weaken or dissipate by about 00z Thursday. 35 Marine Bermuda ridge flow pattern to maintain light winds and low seas that |

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. 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. |
