Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New Orleans LA 411 PM CDT Thu Aug 6 2020

SHORT TERM. Similar convective outcome as yesterday with limited convection on suppressed gulf breeze convergence zone over Terrebonne Parish, moving SE towards to coast. Once again, this will become part of the nocturnal land breeze process for the near coastal waters overnight. Still a weak surface pressure pattern with a third day of marginal stagnation for a little more haziness Friday over much of the area in the morning, then partly cloudy and warm for persistent temperatures Friday and Saturday. Rain chances should remain slightly less than normal through Sunday before trending upward.

LONG TERM. Surface flow becomes more onshore oriented later Sunday through much of next week to bring rain chances higher each day, mainly on sea breeze regime but somewhat enhanced by a frontolytic boundary that will be lingering and masking the sea breeze. Temperatures should be tamped by increased cloud and rain coverage during the extended period.

AVIATION. VFR conditions to prevail at all terminals with convection primarily limited to the near shore marshes, possibly in the vicinity of KHUM this afternoon and early evening. Winds to remain light and variable, driven more by localized lake/sea breeze orientations.

MARINE. Continuation of light winds and low seas for the much of the period. There will be a brief period of a ground swell train with a period 8 seconds dampening out Saturday, which may provide a duration of 2-3 foot swell, but currently will indicate a significant wave 1-2 feet Saturday as the secondary period from the Yucatan Channel will aid in dampening the Florida Straits longer period swell.

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.
