Tornado Watch
Statement as of 1:40 PM CDT on October 13, 2014
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Tornado Watch for portions of southeast Louisiana southern Mississippi coastal waters
* effective this Monday afternoon and evening from 140 PM until 1000 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include... a couple tornadoes possible scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible isolated large hail events to 1 inch in diameter possible
The Tornado Watch area is approximately along and 95 statute miles east and west of a line from 50 miles east northeast of MC Comb Mississippi to 40 miles south of Houma Louisiana. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (wous64 kwns wou8).
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
Remember...a Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings.
Other watch information...continue...ww 534...ww 535...ww 536...ww 537...
Discussion...srn end of extensive SSW-NNE lwr MS Vly sqln should continue ESE at 15-20 kts across ww area through this eve. While low to mid-lvl flow will be somewhat veered relative to points farther N...combination of rich...low-lvl moisture...strengthening deep shear/ascent on srn end of srn plns upr trough...and weakly-capped environment per 18z raob data suggest potential for semi-discrete storms capable of dmgg wind both within and possibly ahead of sqln...and a conditional risk for tornadoes.
Aviation...tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 1 inch. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector 24030.

It could. It usually starts to weaken around Lafayette and points westward.

New line of storms has formed ahead of earlier main line. Looks like it's into metro BTR sometime around 5
