This will include some urban flash flooding concerns to the New Orleans metropolitan area. DISCUSSION...Slow-moving showers and thunderstorms with very high rainfall rates approaching 3 inches/hour will likely continue over the next few hours across portions of south-central to southeast LA. A localized band of stronger low-level convergence combined with strong instability characterized by MLCAPE values of near 3000 J/kg will support convective sustenance in the near-term with aid also from localized outflow boundary collisions which will tend to facilitate new convective development. The latest hires model guidance, especially led by the RRFS solutions, suggests some potential for 3 to 5 inch rainfall totals by early this evening. These high rates and localized storm totals may impact areas near or into the New Orleans metropolitan area over the next few hours. Therefore, at least an isolated and mainly urban flash flood threat will exist as this axis of heavier showers and thunderstorms continues.
