WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY:
 
All coastal watches and warnings are discontinued.
 
SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT:
 
None.
 
 
DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 1000 PM CDT (0300 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone 
Arthur was located near latitude 29.7 North, longitude 94.5 West. 
The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the northeast near 9 mph 
(15 km/h). A northeastward motion at a faster forward speed is 
expected tonight, followed by a turn toward the east-northeast 
Thursday through Friday. On the forecast track, the remnants of 
Arthur should move farther inland over southeastern Texas and 
western Louisiana tonight, then cross the southeastern United States 
Thursday through Friday.
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. 
While additional weakening is expected as the system moves inland, 
the remnants of Arthur will continue to produce widespread heavy 
rains across the southeastern United States during the next few 
days.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure based on surface observations 
is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for remnants of Arthur can be found in the Tropical 
Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT1 and WMO header 
WTNT41 KNHC.
 
RAINFALL: Arthur is expected to produce rainfall totals of 5 to 10 
inches, with isolated higher totals near 20 inches, through early 
Friday from the Mid and Upper Texas coast east-northeast into 
southern and central portions of Louisiana, Mississippi, and 
Alabama, along with western portions of Georgia and the Florida 
Panhandle. This could generate dangerous to life-threatening flash 
flooding.
 
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with the 
remnants of Arthur, please see the National Weather Service Storm 
Total Rainfall Graphic available at 
hurricanes.gov/graphics_at1.shtml?rainqpf and the Flash Flood Risk 
graphic at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at1.shtml?ero.
 
For a list of rainfall observations (and wind reports) associated 
with Arthur, see the companion storm summary at WBCSCCNS1 with the 
WMO header ACUS44 KWBC or at the following link: 
www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/discussions/nfdscc1.html.
 
WIND: Winds gusts to tropical-storm force are possible along the 
Louisiana coast tonight.
 
STORM SURGE:  Water levels remain elevated along the Upper Texas 
coast but will continue to subside overnight.
 
SURF:  Swells generated by Arthur are likely to cause 
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions along the 
northwestern Gulf Coast for the next day or two. Please consult 
products from your local weather office.
 
A depiction of rip current risk for the United States can be found
at: hurricanes.gov/graphics_at1.shtml?ripCurrents
 
TORNADO: A few tornadoes are possible tonight across southeast 
Louisiana and southern Mississippi, and tomorrow into parts of 
Alabama, Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle.

Post-Tropical Cyclone ARTHUR Forecast Discussion

697 
WTNT41 KNHC 180249
TCDAT1
 
Post-Tropical Cyclone Arthur Discussion Number   8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL012026
1000 PM CDT Wed Jun 17 2026

Surface observations indicated that the center of Arthur re-formed 
near Galveston around 21-22Z in response to an offshore convective 
burst. Since that time, there has been no organized convection near 
the center, and the circulation has become elongated along the Upper 
Texas coast. Based on these developments, and the expectation that 
organized convection will not reform near the center, Arthur is no 
longer a tropical cyclone and is being downgraded to a post-tropical 
low with 30 kt winds.

While the motion is a bit uncertain due to the center reformation, 
it appears that the system is starting to move a bit faster toward 
the northeast with the initial motion estimated at 040/8 kt.  A 
general northeastward motion is expected until the surface center 
dissipates tonight over southeastern Texas or southwestern 
Louisiana. After that, the remnants of Arthur should move east- 
northeastward across the southeastern United States and emerge into 
the Atlantic on Friday. A continued east-northeastward motion out to 
sea is expected thereafter.

As mentioned, the surface center of Arthur is expected to dissipate 
later tonight. The global models suggest that the surface center 
could reform near the Atlantic coast on Friday, with some 
intensification possible as the system moves out to sea. It is 
unclear at this time whether this re-development will be due to 
tropical cyclone processes or baroclinic process. However, marine 
gale warnings are being issued for portions of the western Atlantic 
in anticipation of this development.
 
Even though Arthur is no longer a tropical cyclone, heavy rainfall 
and life-threatening flash flooding will continue to be a major 
hazard for the next few days across the southeastern United States. 
There is also an increased tornado threat for portions of the 
southeastern U.S. through Thursday.

That is the last advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on 
this system. Rainfall forecasts for the remnants of Arthur in the 
United States can be found at 
https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/qpf2.shtml and outlooks of flash 
flood risks can be found at 
https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/excessive_rainfall_outlook_ero.php
.
Marine forecasts, including gale warnings, can be found in High Seas 
Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header 
NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and online at 
ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.php. 
 
 
KEY MESSAGES:
 
1. Potentially life-threatening flash flooding and urban flooding 
are likely through Friday across southern Louisiana, southern 
Mississippi, southern Alabama, southwestern Georgia, and the Florida 
Panhandle. Scattered minor river flooding is expected, with the 
potential for isolated moderate to major river flooding. Ongoing 
heavy rainfall could prolong the flood threat through the weekend.
 
2. Wind gusts to tropical-storm force could occur along portions 
of the Louisiana coast tonight.
 
3. Coastal flooding along the coasts of Texas and Louisiana should 
gradually subside later tonight and Thursday.
