AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...MESOSCALE UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1010 PM CST TUE DEC 8 2004

.DISCUSSION...
MUCH TO TALK ABOUT THIS EVENING.  ROUND ONE OF RAINFALL IS MAKING
ITS WAY INTO EAST CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI THIS HOUR. THIS FEATURED A
NARROW BAND OF ONE TO TWO INCH RAINFALL FROM EASTERN FRANKLIN COUNTY
THROUGH LINCOLN AND SIMPSON EARLIER THIS EVENING. SIMILAR
ACCUMULATIONS WILL OCCUR FARTHER NORTHEAST IN SCOTT...NEWTON...
NESHOBA AND KEMPER COUNTIES. THIS AREA OF RAIN WILL CONTINUE A
NORTHEASTWARD TREK. ROUND TWO IS QUICKLY MOVING NORTHEASTWARD OUT OF
SW LA...ENTERING MY EAST CENTRAL LA PARISHES AT THIS TIME.

03Z SFC ANALYSIS HAS TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 50S NORTH TO LOWER
60S SOUTH. DEWPOINTS HAVE BEEN SLOWLY RISING AS THE SFC FLOW IS
VEERING TO A MORE SOUTHERLY DIRECTION. THE SFC WARM FRONT IS STILL
TO MY SOUTH...HOWEVER IT IS KNOCKING ON THE DOOR OF MY SOUTHERN TIER
OF ZONES. THE LOWEST DEWPOINTS ARE CONFINED TO MY FAR NORTH...IN THE
LOWER 50S...OTHERWISE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S DEWPOINTS HAVE BEEN
OBSERVED ELSEWHERE. WITH SOUTHERLY FLOW STAKING CLAIM TO THE
REGION...TEMPS HAVE LIKELY ALREADY REACHED THEIR LOW POINT. TO
BOOT...MID TO UPPER 60S DEWPOINTS ARE POISED TO MOVE INTO THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA UPON THE PASSAGE OF THE WARM FRONT AFTER
MIDNIGHT.

AS PREVIOUS DISCUSSION MENTIONED...AND CURRENT PROFILER DATA
CONFIRMS...LLJ IS INCREASING IN INTENSITY AND REGION IS POISED TO
BECOME POSITIONED IN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF THE ULJ. 00Z UPPER
AIR ANALYSES AND RUC CONTINUE TO INDICATE EXCELLENT DEEP LAYER SHEAR
NEAR 60KTS...WHILE LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS A TOUCH LOW AT 20KTS.  AREAS
NORTH OF THE AFOREMENTIONED WARM FRONT SHOULD CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE
EXCELLENT ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE AND EXPANDING RAINFALL COVERAGE. WITH
SHOWALTER INDEX VALUES WEAKLY NEGATIVE...AND LIS FROM 700MB AROUND
-1C TO -2C...ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LIKELY. ONCE THE WARM
FRONT MOVES INTO MY SOUTHERN ZONES DURING THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS...AND THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE SHIFTS EASTWARD OUT OF
TEXAS...STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE SURFACE BASED. SFC AND MU
CAPE VALUES WILL INCREASE TO BETWEEN 500 AND 1000J/KG IN THE
PRESENCE OF -2 LIS. ISO TO SCT SEVERE STORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE...BEGINNING IN MY SOUTHWEST ZONES AFTER MIDNIGHT AND
SPREADING NORTHEASTWARD THEREAFTER. DAMAGING WIND GUSTS ARE THE
PRIMARY RISK...ISOLATED TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE.

PREVIOUS PACKAGE HANDLES SENSIBLE WEATHER WELL AND ONLY MINOR TWEAKS
ARE NEEDED TO THE GOING FORECAST. TEMPS LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE GONE AS
LOW AS THEY WILL GO. WITH DEWPOINTS ON A SLOW STEADY RISE ACROSS THE
AREA...HAVE ACCOUNTED FOR STEADY OR SLOWLY RISING TEMPERATURES
DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS AND WENT AHEAD AN INCREASED LOWS TO
AROUND 55 IN MY NORTHERN TIER OF ZONES. MOST OF THE RAINFALL WILL
AFFECT THE NORTHWEST 2/3RDS OF THE CWFA DURING THE NEXT FEW
HOURS...HOWEVER AM STILL EXPECTING A EASTWARD SHIFT TO THE RAINFALL
AFTER 2 OR 3AM.
