AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
700 AM CDT FRI OCT 27 2006

.DISCUSSION...
UPDATED ZONES FOR INCLUSION OF TORNADO WATCH #841 COVERING EXTREME
SOUTHEAST ZONES OF MS UNTIL NOON. IN ADDITION...REMOVED MENTION OF
FLASH FLOOD WATCH FROM ZONES AS IT IS SET TO EXPIRE RIGHT NOW WITH
HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL CLEARING OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY. /BB/

&&

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...TRUE TO MODEL TENDENCIES OVER THE PAST FEW
RUNS...THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS SHOWING A SLOWER EASTWARD PROGRESSION.
THE COLD FRONT WILL BE POSITIONED IN THE VICINITY OF THE MS RIVER
AROUND SUNRISE AND BEGIN TO ACCELERATE ACROSS THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON. WILL ALLOW THE FLOOD WATCH TO EXPIRE THIS MORNING AT 7
AM. PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL WILL OCCUR THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING
BUT BANDS HAVE SHOWN A STEADY EASTWARD PROGRESSION AND THE POTENTIAL
FOR TRAINING CELLS WILL BE REDUCED.

STRONG WIND FIELDS CONTINUE JUST OFF THE GROUND THIS MORNING... WIND
PROFILERS SHOWING SLY WIND AT 35 KTS AT 925 MB...BUT GENERAL MIXING
TO THE SURFACE HAS BEEN LIMITED. THE PRESSURE FALL CENTER THAT
TRACKED INTO CENTRAL ZONES THIS MORNING INITIATED GUSTS OF 25-30 KTS
AT JAN BUT THIS EFFECT REMAINED LOCAL. SHOULD SEE MORE WIDESPREAD
MIXING DUE TO DIURNAL HEATING TODAY. SURFACE WIND WILL SHIFT TO THE
W/NW FOLLOWING THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE DURING THE LATE MORNING AND
AFTERNOON BUT WILL MAINTAIN POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY WIND IN THE WAKE OF
A SECONDARY SURFACE TROUGH THAT DROPS INTO THE AREA DURING THE
AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURE FORECAST IS OF SOME DIFFICULTY TODAY. EXPECT
LITTLE IN THE WAY OF WARMING MOST AREAS BECAUSE OF WIDESPREAD
RAIN/CLOUD COVER THIS MORNING AND DEVELOPING COLD AIR ADVECTION
LATER IN THE DAY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT.

WILL SEE BREAKS IN CLOUD COVER DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
BUT MODELS AGREE THAT A SWATH OF MOISTURE WILL PIVOT INTO NRN ZONES
OVERNIGHT. WILL MAINTAIN SLIGHT CHANCE LIGHT PRECIP N/NERN ZONES
TONIGHT DUE TO THE DEEP UPPER TROUGHING THAT REMAINS IN THE
VICINITY. DRY WEATHER ON TAP FOR SATURDAY.

FORECAST AREA SHOULD BE IN FOR A STRETCH OF DRY...MILD AND GENERALLY
PLEASANT WEATHER SUNDAY AND MONDAY...ALTHOUGH RAIN CHANCES TOWARD
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WORK WEEK LOOK TO BE INCREASING A BIT.

LATEST GFS IS MORE INSISTENT THAT A PHASING OF SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN
STREAMS WILL IMPACT THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI AS EARLY AS MONDAY NIGHT
WITH PERTURBED UPPER LEVEL FLOW REMAINING OVER THE REGION FOR
SEVERAL DAYS. MOISTURE RETURN AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM INITIALLY IS VERY
QUESTIONABLE...BUT AT LEAST THE LATEST GFS RUN IS TAPPING A BIT MORE
MOISTURE BY SOUTHERLY FLOW LATE MONDAY...ALTHOUGH BRINGING A
MAJORITY OF IT NORTHWARD WEST OF THE REGION BEFORE LATER TUESDAY.
STILL CANNOT RULE OUT LIFTING AND MOISTENING DUE TO ISENTROPIC
PROCESSES BEFORE AN ACTUAL FRONT NEARS NORTHWEST AREAS LATE TUESDAY
AND FORCES BETTER ATMOSPHERIC ASCENT. GFS EXPECTS THIS BOUNDARY TO
HANG UP IN THE VICINITY OF NORTHERN ZONES FOR A DAY BEFORE
ANOTHER...STRONGER...COLD FRONT PUSHES EVERYTHING THROUGH SOMETIME
THURSDAY.

FEEL THAT THE EXACT DETAILS OF THE LATEST GFS SOLUTION ARE HIGHLY
DUBIOUS...AND THE PROSPECT OF GOOD MOISTURE RETURN AND MORE THAN
MARGINAL INSTABILITY GETTING INTO THE MIX DOES NOT LOOK GOOD. BUT
SAYING ALL THAT...I REALLY DID NOT CUT MORE AGGRESSIVE 00Z MEX POPS
EXCEPT AT THE FRONT AND BACK ENDS OF THE FORECASTED RAINY STRETCH.
REASONING FOR THIS MOVE IS MAINLY AN INFLUENCE OF PERSISTENCE IN THE
MIDST OF A WET OCTOBER...REMAINING MODEL UNCERTAINTIES...AND THE
FACT THAT RATHER INSIGNIFICANT EVENTS CAN STILL WET A GOOD DEAL OF
GROUND.

AS FOR TEMPS...REMAINED CLOSE TO LATEST MEX FOR THE MOST
PART...WHICH ADVERTISED A SPELL OF AVERAGE (OR SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN
AVERAGE) CONDITIONS SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. FORECAST TEMPS COOL
BACK DOWN DURING THE END OF THE PERIOD AS THE MAIN COLD FRONT
EXPECTED TO COME THROUGH BY THURSDAY COULD BE RATHER HEALTHY. MAIN
PERIOD TO WATCH IN THE BEGINNING OF THE LONG TERM WILL BE SATURDAY
NIGHT WHEN HIGH PRESSURE SITUATED OVERHEAD AND MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES
SHOULD DELIVER VERY GOOD RAD COOLING CONDITIONS. ALTHOUGH THE
AIRMASS IN PLACE WILL NOT BE ANOMALOUSLY COLD...THOSE SORTS OF
NIGHTS GENERALLY END UP VERIFYING COLDER THAN MAV/MEX. CUT 1 TO 2
DEGREES IN SPOTS FOR NOW...BUT I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE NEW
NUMBERS COME IN LOWER. /BB/

&&

.AVIATION...WIDESPREAD MVFR CIGS AND VSBY WITH RAINFALL THIS
MORNING. OCCASIONAL IFR IN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. CONDITIONS WILL
IMPROVE DURING THE MORNING AS THE COLD FRONT EASES TO THE EAST WITH
GENERAL VFR CONDITIONS BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. TIMING ON THE FRONT PUTS
IT NEAR THE MS RIVER THIS MORNING...THEN MOVING NEAR THE MS/AL
BORDER BY THE EARLY AFTERNOON. WILL SEE GUSTY SWLY WIND THIS
MORNING...SWITCHING TO THE W/NW BEHIND THE FRONT.
