Area forecast discussion 
National Weather Service New Orleans la 
355 PM CDT Wednesday Aug 27 2008 


Short term... 
latest surface analysis continue to show the remnant low of Fay 
over east Tennessee and a very weak pressure gradient over the 
lower Mississippi Valley. A swath of precipitable water values greater 
than 2 inches from Houston to the Mississippi Delta to 
Apalachicola was noted. Surface land heating near the swath has 
yielded isolated storms south of Lake Pontchartrain. A weak trough 
axis from Ohio the north Gulf has produced a weak northwest flow 
over Louisiana and Mississippi. In addition...subsidence will 
likely suppress rain chances from reaching norms. With heating and 
residual moisture in place...will maintain slight chance of rain 
Thursday and Friday. 


Long term... 
a developing ridge over The Rockies will extend over the middle 
south Friday into Saturday. Flow aloft will shift from west to 
northeast and east...well ahead of Gustav. Continental flow will 
decrease the rain chances below norm... but will keep a slight 
chance to low chances of rain over the weekend. It has been a 
chore discerning the different tracks for Gustav. Please refer to 
Tropical Storm Gustav discussion (tcdat2) for more information. We 
introduced higher rain chances for Labor Day and Tuesday with the 
last package. Now...we have introduced higher winds across land 
forecast area and high precipitation totals associated with Gustav. In 
addition...we have lowered day time temperatures for this time. Will 
maintain near norm temperatures and rain chances next Wednesday into 
Thursday.

Aviation... 
isolated thunderstorms should remain far enough away from msy this 
afternoon...therefore no thunderstorms and rain in the tafs. Patchy light fog is 
possible at msy...btr...gpt...btr. 


&& 


Marine... 
the main concern is Gustav. Currently Gustav is forecast to move to 
near the mouth of the Mississippi River on Monday. Thus we will be 
including hurricane conditions possible in the forecast.
