The remainder of the precipitation will continue to dissipate through the evening with dry conditions expected overnight. Light and variable winds and areas of saturated soil will again aid in the possibility of some patchy fog development Thursday morning, but extent and probability is not high enough to explicitly mention in tafs. Convection will reinitialize by late Thursday morning with scattered thunderstorms once again expected through Thursday afternoon. Periods of visibility restricting heavy rainfall, frequent lightning and brief, gusty winds will be possible with some storms. Jones Prev discussion issued 421 pm cdt Wed aug 21 2019 synopsis... a persistent pattern remains in place aloft with high pres from the sw into tx as well as acrs fl, with a general weakness in between these features acrs la and the lower ms valley. At the sfc, high pres continues to ridge acrs the northern gulf, with a light onshore flow maintaining an influx of low level moisture. Klch radar shows isolated showers acrs SE tx with more sctd showers further east toward the acadiana region. Mrms indicates a few isolated showers are capable of producing intense rainfall rates of more than 3 inches per hour, however, rainfall totals in general have been around an inch or less. 24 discussion... minimal changes to the fcst for the upcoming period, as the region remains beneath a general weakness aloft through early next week. A typical diurnal convective pattern is expected again tonight into Thursday, similar to the past several days. Aftn convection is expected to diminish around sunset, with showers re-developing late tonight over the coastal waters then transitioning inland over coastal areas during the morning as daytime heating gets underway. Convection will become more widespread by aftn, with some showers and storms capable of heavy rain, as boundary interactions promote additional development. Rain chcs will increase further from Thursday night into Saturday |
as a midlevel disturbance lifts north over western gulf. Precip water values are progged to increase to at least 2.2 inches, and the combined increase in moisture and lift associated with the disturbance will provide more widespread rain coverage. Given the unusually high moisture content and relatively slow storm motions (around 10 kt or less), storms will be capable of efficient rain rates as well as the possibility of localized flooding. Wpc has outlined most of the area in a mrgl risk for excessive rainfall on Friday. Model guidance suggests overall rainfall totals up to 2 to 3 inches through the weekend, which is a little lower than the previous model run. Despite this, the potential exists for localized amounts in excess of these values, and this will be continue to be monitored over the coming days. By Sunday, a shortwave in the westerlies will drop southeast toward the lower ms valley, while the disturbance over the nw gulf continues to slowly lift northeast. These two features eventually merge by Monday over the northern gulf coast states, with the weakness lingering over the region through early next week. This will keep a decent chc of rain over the area through early next week. Daily rain chcs will diminish only slightly, but remain above normal from Sunday through Tuesday. Daytime highs will be around 90 or into the lower 90s, with the exception of Friday and Saturday when cloudy skies and nmrs to widespread showers keep temperatures below normal. Overnight lows will be in the lower to middle 70s. 24 marine... light to occasionally moderate onshore flow will continue through next week. Shower and TSTM chances are expected to increase from Thursday night into the weekend as a disturbance lifts northward over the western gulf of mexico. Otherwise, expect more typical late night into early morning sctd convection tonight and again next week. Winds and seas will be locally higher near any thunderstorms. 24 Preliminary point temps pops Aex 73 91 73 88 30 60 10 70 lch 77 90 76 87 20 50 30 80 lft 75 90 75 86 20 60 40 70 bpt 77 90 77 87 10 50 40 70 Lch watches warnings advisories La...

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. |
