DISCUSSION...RADAR Mosaic depicts strong thunderstorms along and ahead of a cold front associated with an organizing area of surface low pressure. Surface winds in the 20-25kt range with ~45-60 degrees of convergence of upper 60s to low 70s Tds, combined with slowly veering 925-850mb moisture stream out of the western Gulf across the low is supporting very strong ascent and moisture flux to support localized 1 to 2 inch per hour rainfall rates. Mid to upper level RAP analysis supported by GOES-E WV depicts the nose of best difluence aloft at this weak inflection upstream of the surface low, showing signs of outpacing the best wave. This should support a few more hours of this strong convergence with similar rates across portions of Louisiana and southern/southwestern Mississippi...at which point the inflection/best dynamic ascent will shift north and east of the surface wave and LLJ will veer narrowing the warm sector/onshore flow. This should result in highly localized high run-off, but may not expand in a broad enough area to pose larger areal incidents in neighboring watersheds for all but low-end and urban and small stream type flash flooding. This should further diminishing between 03Z and 04Z over south-central and southeast Louisiana as warm sector continues to narrow further with instability only remaining as MUCAPE isentropically ascended though the veering 850mb LLJ. The HRRR has been performing well over the last few runs despite showing itself to be a bit on the slow side.=20 Bann ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov__;!!= DZ3fjg!4PlGOElH1UZLHQcuR_rdEuliYx4gTjIvA_3V7ddA9l--RiTU08CXrbDRiVo3m0eV1PSQ= D8kmATgnAmx3IiUMxVpdQ9k$ for graphic product...
