Wow. That's a worse sign than Cantore showing up.

As for the "75" circle/bullseye...what does that translate to? 75% chance of a tornado within that circle?

Must have nothing better to do cause there is nothing to see or happening til after dark if at all. Cold front is still on the coast of LA and barely drifting north. IF there is any thing it will be overnight or early morning hours. SW LA had a severe ts watch issued first thing this morning and never got a drop of rain.

I think forecasters in Louisiana are worse at predicting any kind of storm event than in any other state.

I agree. Only thing that makes me hesitate and think something might happen is because the spc is not jumping all over this and giving us a moderate or high risk of severe weather. Every time that has happened we got nothing. Like somebody said yesterday its when its not forecast is when we get hit the hardest.

MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0297

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

0131 PM CDT SUN APR 06 2014



AREAS AFFECTED...EAST TX...LA



CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 63...



VALID 061831Z - 061930Z



THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 63

CONTINUES.



SUMMARY...ISOLATED HAIL THREAT CONTINUES ACROSS EAST TX AND LA.



DISCUSSION...SFC WARM FRONT IS GRADUALLY ADVANCING INLAND ALONG THE

UPPER TX COAST. THIS BOUNDARY APPEARS TO BE LIFTING NORTH PARTLY IN

RESPONSE TO APPROACHING SHORT-WAVE TROUGH. ADDITIONALLY...REGIONAL

RADAR DATA SUGGESTS A WEAK MCV/VORT MAY BE EVOLVING NE OF ACT PER

WEAK MID LEVEL SUBSIDENCE/DRYING SPREADING ACROSS SCNTRL TX. IN

RESPONSE...LOW LEVEL FLOW IS BEGINNING TO VEER ACROSS SERN TX AND

MOIST/BUOYANT WARM SECTOR SHOULD CONTINUE TO RETURN ACROSS SERN

TX/SRN LA.



WHILE ISOLATED HAIL MAY ACCOMPANY THE STRONGEST ELEVATED

UPDRAFTS...GREATER CONCERN WILL BE WITH NEAR-SFC BASED CONVECTION

THAT EVOLVES LATER THIS AFTERNOON ALONG/SOUTH OF WARM FRONT. GIVEN

THE STRONG SHEAR NOTED ACROSS THIS REGION THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES

WILL INCREASE AS SUPERCELLS ROOT INTO HIGHER THETA-E BOUNDARY LAYER.

TORNADO WATCH WILL LIKELY BE WARRANTED LATER TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS

THREAT.

The weather people can't even tell me if it's going to rain or not, why would I trust their prediction on tornadoes, hail, and flooding?

1) its gonna be dark
2) its gonna be flooding
3) any tornadoes will most likely be hi precip

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0256 PM CDT SUN APR 06 2014

VALID 062000Z - 071200Z

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS ERN TX...LA...MS
AND AL...

THE ONLY CHANGE TO THE OUTLOOK IS TO REMOVE THE SLIGHT RISK AREA
FROM PARTS OF CNTRL AND EAST TX. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE MARKEDLY
DECREASED IN COVERAGE TO THE WEST OF A LINE FROM JUST WEST OF
HOUSTON EXTENDING NWD TO TYLER. THIS AREA IS BEING IMPACTED BY
SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAKE OF A VORTICITY MAX OVER THE ARKLATEX AND WILL
BE AFFECTED BY DRIER AIR ADVECTING IN FROM THE NORTHWEST THIS
AFTERNOON.

TO THE EAST ACROSS LA...MS AND AL...A SEVERE THREAT WILL CONTINUE
FROM THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD
AS A WELL-DEFINED 70
TO 90 KT MID-LEVEL JET MOVES INTO THE REGION FROM THE SOUTHWEST.
THIS FEATURE WILL CREATE STRONG DEEP LAYER SHEAR PROFILES OVER THE
TOP OF A MOIST AIRMASS CREATING CONDITIONS FAVORABLE FOR ROTATING
STORMS.

Most of that looks like it might only affect the very top of Louisiana. South La. might just get the 'tip' of it, not the whole enchilada.

Do you have any idea how many times "just the tip" caused a lot of problems.
