    0846 AM CST Tue Jan 21 2025

    Areas affected...Southeast Louisiana...southern Mississippi and far
    southern Alabama

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 211446Z - 211845Z

    SUMMARY...Moderate to heavy snow to continue this morning and
    through the afternoon. Some blowing and drifting is also expected.

    DISCUSSION...An expansive region of light to occasionally moderate
    snow has spread across much of the central Gulf coast this morning.
    Expect precipitation rates to increase through the late morning and
    afternoon with widespread moderate to occasionally heavy snowfall
    rates expected. In addition, some stronger winds, particularly
    closer to the coast will lead to some blowing and drifting. Areas
    with northward exposure (ex. southern short of Lake Pontchartrain)
    may see some localized blizzard conditions through the day.=20

    Some mixed precipitation is being observed from southern Terrebonne
    Parish to southern St. Bernard Parish where a warm nose (seen just
    below 700mb on the LIX 12Z RAOB) is slightly above freezing. 60
    knots of southwesterly flow in this warm nose will attempt to
    maintain its presence across the region while temperatures aloft
    continue to cool. Expect the cold air to eventually win out with
    snow likely across all of southern Louisiana by later this
    afternoon.
