    Areas affected...Northeast TX and northeast LA

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 414...

    Valid 132341Z - 140115Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 414 continues.

    SUMMARY...Local spatial extension has been made for WW 414 into
    extreme northwest Louisiana, with a continued tornado threat across
    the remaining portion of the watch.

    DISCUSSION...Early evening surface analyses indicated an area of low
    pressure in northeast TX (located near TYR at 23Z) with a warm front
    extending east through northern LA to central MS. The horizontal
    thermal gradient of this warm front in northwest LA as tightened in
    the last 1-1.5 hours as precipitation and clouds have resulted in
    cooling surface temperatures in and around SHV. South of the cloud
    shield and warm front, temperatures are in the lower 80s F, while
    the reading at 23Z at SHV was 69 F. The thermodynamic environment
    is more stable with eastward extent across LA. Given the time of
    day with the loss of daytime heating and clouds/precipitation
    spreading across northern LA, the potential for further extension of
    this watch is unlikely.

    Although these same factors hinder the ongoing thermodynamic profile
    across northwest LA with the presence of cloudiness and some
    precipitation, low-level environment remains supportive for
    rotation/tornado threat near the warm front, given the presence of
    strong vertically veering winds.
