I understand what you’re saying, but I just saw a meteorologist point out that there was a forecast for 19 to 20 inches in Oldfield Louisiana

Surely you misunderstood him. He was probably referring to a model run.

Looked up Oldfield, LA on google maps and it shows it’s close to Denham Springs.

Yea some of the models I've seen shared do seem to be painting a bullseye over the general Baton Rouge area for the possibility of some eyebrow raising totals. Meanwhile actual forecasts are indicating a general possibility of 5-7 inches over the same area.


One thing that perplexes me is this, though:

Even though the models are painting massive totals over this area, the future radar model runs seem to show just a small area of heavy rain that comes in and out quickly. It doesn't seem to line up with each other.

Any additional rain in Pearl River county will be problematic. We have close to or over 30” of rain at my place in the last month. Luckily we drain fast but all the creeks are still rising from yesterday’s downpours.

The strong wing is extremely localized. I’m driving through the suck zone along I-10 today and it’s just a decent breeze right now.

Good thing it skipped offshore for a few hours. They would’ve had a hard time justifying this one

Perhaps and the model run forecast 19 to 20 inches.

That is certainly not out of the realm of possibilities from a system like this, no?

I know the main area of circulation is right on the coast but if you look at the infrared model on tropical tidbits it almost looks like that big blob to the south has its own center.

Mid level center/circulation Western shear is decoupling the lower level circulation (near the coast) and the blob.

Bunch of low level circulations with a mid-level one not stacked.

Basically this thing is a messy rainmaker.

whoever gets a training rain band is going to get fricked

there could be a massive gradient on rainfall totals somewhere

it's been really sunny out here in Biloxi area and hot/humid. I'm expecting a deluge sometime overnight into tomorrow. The energy has to be there with these conditions right now
