    Areas affected...southeast Louisiana...far southeast

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 622...

    Valid 241957Z - 242200Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 622
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds continues, especially in
    southeast Louisiana where an organized cold pool has developed.

    DISCUSSION...As of 1955Z, mosaic radar imagery showed a broken band
    of strong to severe storms from near Mobile west along the MS coast
    through New Orleans to south of Baton Rouge. The western segment of
    the thunderstorm band from St. John the Baptist to Ascension and St.
    James Parishes has developed an organized cold pool with updrafts
    exhibiting some forward-propagational characteristics, suggestive of
    an enhanced damaging wind threat. There, severe gusts up to 65 mph
    appear possible as that segment of storms continues south toward the
    coast. Elsewhere, expect the damaging wind threat to be more
    sporadic in nature through mid to late afternoon.
