Looks to be a heavy rain event this weekend. I would not be surprised if some areas got 15 inches of rain once it is all over.

Latest GFS indicates that the heavier rain will pass north of New Orleans. Light rain indicated from this evening through Sunday evening. Total precip only an inch or so. Waiting on 12Z Euro to see if it is in agreement. See below:Snowman wrote:what should i expect hear in New Orleans from this system?

12Z Euro is much farther north with the low than even the GFS (I have the high-dollar full-resolution run of the Euro available now). For example, at 7am Sunday morning the Euro has the low center well NE of Lufkin while the lower-res versions have it south of Lake Charles at the same time. It indicates heaviest precip passing well north of Houston tomorrow and rain ending before sunrise Sunday across Houston as we get in the dry slot.

Not much indicated as far as severe parameters across TX tomorrow. Greatest LI at -4, but generally -2 to -3.

I know the MOS was still showing 1.5 inches of rain, which is decent, what do severe parameters look like on Euro?
Stupid AccuWx PPV graphics still showing 0Z run...

The HPC stated the 12Z OP Euro was bogus as well. They're expecting the 00Z Euro ensembles have a better handle on things at this time. That said as we all well know, meso features are darn near impossible to forecast 24 hours out and confidence remains low to medium at best.
