Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New Orleans LA 952 AM CDT Sun Jul 25 2021
MORNING UPDATE. Updates to POP, weather, QPF, and sky cover grids to better reflect ongoing radar and satellite trends. POP was increased in the waters west of the Mississippi river and over coastal portions of Southeast Louisiana with chance POP of 30 to 40 percent now in place as compared to the 10 to 20 percent in the forecast initially. Sky cover grids were updated to reflect a band of cloud cover extending from around Hattiesburg southward into portions of the Northshore. Sky cover was also increased along the Louisiana coast to reflect the ongoing convection. Weather and QPF grids have been updated to align with the POP coverage. Temperatures and dewpoints are tracking well with observed conditions and the heat advisory in place will remain unchanged. PG
PREV DISCUSSION. /issued 520 AM CDT Sun Jul 25 2021/
SHORT TERM (Sunday through Tuesday) .
Water vapor imagery depicts a cyclonic shear axis extending from the southwest Louisiana coast east-southeastward across the north Gulf with easterlies and drier air in the upper levels having moved through the forecast area. One other notable feature this morning is an axis of low level moisture pooling with isolated showers extending from east of Tylertown to metro New Orleans.
The expansive mid to upper level high pressure area will remain just off to the north and west of the region which will keep the forecast area in a battle between very warm/hot low level temperatures and scattered diurnally driven convection with precipitable water values of 1.8 to 2.1 inches expected throughout the daytime hours. High temperatures are once again expected to reach the mid 90s in most areas just inland from the immediate coast to go along with continued high dewpoint temperatures in the mid to upper 70s with some locations again up around 80. Since yesterday overachieved with respect to the highs and dewpoints in some areas, have adjusted the hourly NBM values up to account for the recent bias. The forecast maximum heat index today is in the 107 to 112 degree range across most areas except the far southeast coastal areas from Jackson and Harrison Counties in Mississippi to the extreme southeast coastal areas of Louisiana and some areas on the west side of metro Baton Rouge. There is the chance some areas could see earlier development of scattered showers and thunderstorms which could keep the duration and level of heat a bit lower, however confidence is low on if and where that will happen. Therefore, have expanded the Heat Advisory to include all of metro New Orleans and Hancock County. Like yesterday, some of the stronger thunderstorms that develop could produce frequent lightning strikes and some gusty winds as high as 30 to 40 mph along with mostly brief heavy downpours. A few of the showers and storms will likely linger into the evening hours before dissipating by late evening.
The models still indicate some drier air will likely move into portions of the forecast area from east to west on Monday. Have continued to follow the NBM guidance keeping the higher 40 to 60% chances of showers and thunderstorms in northern/western areas and 20 to 30% in areas south of the tidal lakes and near the coast. High temperatures should remain hot with plenty of mid 90s expected for most inland areas. Maximum heat index values are forecast to remain below the Heat Advisory criteria of 108, but cannot rule out some hotter locations. Once again, there will be plenty of instability for some thunderstorms to become strong and produce frequent lightning, gusty winds and some torrential downpours.
Monday night into Tuesday morning should be mostly dry with the lower precipitable water lingering over the forecast area, however many areas should see higher moisture content in the afternoon and have a 30 to 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms. Temperatures will continue to be hot for highs with mid 90s inland and lower 90s on the coast.
LONG TERM (Tuesday night and beyond) .
Main forecast concern during the extended period will be the daily threat of thunderstorms. Medium range solutions have shifted a little bit eastward with the center of the upper ridge, near the Kansas-Colorado border. The question is whether that will be far enough east to put the local area in subsidence to suppress convection. At this time, it looks like daily diurnal convection will continue to be a threat for the 2nd half of the week into the weekend. The 12z medium range operational solutions would indicate that the NBM PoPs are too high, but with the models going back and forth on the ridge the last couple days, won't back off the PoPs quite yet.
Somewhat concerned about the high temperature forecast, as we've been trending above guidance, especially the last couple of days. If the drying trend continues, we'll need to bump up highs, possibly beyond what the 12z ECMWF would suggest. Right now, we're consistent with neighboring offices, just something to keep in mind.
AVIATION .
Primarily a VFR forecast. All indications are that convection during the day Sunday will be mainly an afternoon affair, and will carry VCTS in terminals until it becomes more clear where the direct impacts will be. Most likely direct impacts would be IFR visibilities and wind gusts to 25-30 knots. Most storms should dissipate near or before sunset again Sunday evening.
MARINE .
Very benign conditions are expected across the coastal waters through next week. Light winds of 10 knots or less and seas mostly less than 3 feet are forecast through the period. Scattered thunderstorm activity each day will be the primary concern. These storms could produce brief periods of gusty winds, choppy seas, and possibly a few waterspouts.
