How the frick does the NWS miss this forecast by 200 miles? All this rain we were supposed to get in LC ended up in Shreveport. I could understand if it were an hour away or whatnot, but 200 miles?
This is one of NWS's all time busts events here. Thays an understatement.
This has been a very hard system to forecast. The models have really struggled with it and there aren't many analogs for such a highly unusual setup.
Deep tropical moisture is streaming north out of the Gulf resulting in record PWAT across Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. So one of the main ingredients is in place for extreme rainfall but the triggers have been very hard to get a handle on. Numerous waves of energy have been rotating around the base of the system and kicking out across Texas. Each of these waves of energy sets off rounds of thunderstorms. Forecasting convective evolution is still extremely hard and that is making it hard to nail down who gets the most rain and when.
Trends this morning certainly point to SE Texas and SW Louisiana getting in on the action today
Here is a graphic from NWS Houston touching on why this has been so tricky

It just said Bossier.

Looks like the one in front of Krogers on Barksdale. That whole shady grove area floods like a bitch.

This reminds me of the 2009 levee break in Dogwood.

Update, 1:20 p.m.: The latest forecast from the National Weather Service increases to amount of rain expected over the next three days in south Louisiana. The forecast now calls for around 10 inches in the New Orleans area and 4-5 inches in the Baton Rouge area.

Just saw I-49 now has water issues south of shreveport. I-20 has the two spots at least between bossier and ruston closed. Saw a couple of y'all post about traveling through here today/tom.
Edit: sherif says highway 80 also closed near bossier so there isn't an open route through that area. Maybe highway 2 is open further north.

Pretty safe bet that, BR posters will lambast the NWS for not getting as much rain as NOLA.

I was in middle school. My dad ran out of gas near ockley/fern. Had to walk, well wade, through ankle deep water.
First and last time he ran out of gas.
