The sleet nazi says















No Sleet for you .







NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAKE CHARLES LA
205 AM CST FRI FEB 7 2003

CURRENT SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS EXITING LOW ACROSS THE FL PANHANDLE. A
LARGE HIGH IS BUILDING SOUTH...PROVIDING OUR AREA WITH N WINDS 10-15
MPH...AND TEMPS IN THE 40S.

UNCERTAIN FORECAST AHEAD AS THE SUBTROPICAL JET CONTINUES TO STREAM
MOISTURE AND MINOR DISTURBANCES...OVERRUNNING THE DOME OF COLD AIR
AT THE SFC. THE QUESTION IS...HOW FAR SOUTH OR NORTH THE PRECIP
WILL EVOLVE? WILL IT STAY IN THE GULF...OR SPREAD INLAND? THE AVN
IS A BIT MORE ROBUST IN PRECIP TODAY AND TONIGHT...GIVING CATEGORICAL
POPS...WHILE WITH THE NGM/ETA SOLUTIONS ONLY GIVE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
PRECIP ACROSS S ZONES...AND BASICALLY NONE FURTHER INLAND. SINCE THE
AVN IS ADVERTISING MORE MOISTURE AND LIFT NOW THAN IS OCCURRING...
WILL LEAN TOWARDS THE DRIER FORECAST. NO RAIN IS EXPECTED AREAWIDE
FOR MOST OF THE DAY. BY THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...A SLIGHT CHANCE
OF RAIN CAN BE EXPECTED MAINLY I-10 SOUTH.

ONCE AGAIN...NO STRONG ORGANIZED SIGNAL FOR RA THRU SAT...JUST WEAK
PERTURBATIONS MOVING OVER THE AREA. BY SUN...ANOTHER WEAK SFC LOW AND
FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA. WITH WARMING TEMPS AND S WINDS...
WILL LEAVE 40% CHANCE OF RA AND A FEW TSRA.

BY MON...THE FLOW ALOFT WILL BE FROM THE NW...ADVECTING DRIER AIR...
MEANING WE WILL SE THE SUN AGAIN. THE NEXT SFC HIGH WILL SETTLE OVER
THE AREA MON EVENING...MOVING E BY TUE. THE NEXT WX MAKER WILL
BEGIN BREWING WED ACROSS THE WEST. THE UPPER TROF WILL MOVE EAST BY
THU...AFFECTING OUR AREA THRU FRI AS THE SFC LOW MOVES ACROSS THE
ARKLATEX.

.LCH...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY...GMZ450-455-470-475. (ATCHAFALAYA RIVER
LOUISIANA TO HIGH ISLAND TEXAS OUT 60 NAUTICAL MILES)

.PRELIMINARY NUMBERS...

It will be interesting tonight! The temp is currently 39 degrees and has been dropping since last night. The precip looks like it will move in later this afternoon and into tonight, albeit light. I would not rule out sleet here in southern louisiana and who knows, we might be surprised by the white stuff! Pray for snow everyone!
