What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Apr 2, 2:03 PM CDT, 4 hours 46 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 2, 2:03 PM CDT, 4 hours 46 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN 203 PM CDT SUN APR 2 2006 .DISCUSSION... INITIAL UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE IS MOVING THROUGH THE MIDSOUTH AT THIS TIME. A BATCH OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS (BELOW SEVERE LIMITS) ARE MOVING THROUGH THE REGION. MORNING CLOUD COVER AND ADDITIONAL DEBRIS WITH THE CLUSTER HAVE SEVERELY LIMITED INSTABILITY THIS AFTERNOON. WATER VAPOR SHOWS THAT THE INITIAL SHORTWAVE HAS SCOURED OUT A GOOD DEAL OF THE DEEPER MOISTURE LEAVING ONLY NEAR SURFACE MOISTURE FOR THE FRONT TO WORK WITH AS IT COMES THROUGH TONIGHT. NAM APPEARS TO HAVE THE BEST HANDLE ON THE SITUATION WHICH INDICATE THAT RAIN CHANCES ARE REALLY LOW BECAUSE OF LACK OF DEEP MOISTURE. HOWEVER...IF A STORM OR TWO WERE TO DEVELOP THERE IS PLENTY OF SHEAR IN PLACE. ASSUMING ADDITIONAL HEATING BEHIND THE INITIAL CLUSTER...CAPES OF AROUND 1000- 1500J/KG. SO...AN ISOLATED TORNADO AND LARGE HAIL REMAIN A THREAT IF CONVECTION COULD DEVELOP. HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION AND PROVIDE DRY AND COOLER WEATHER THROUGH MIDWEEK. LOW DEW POINTS WILL FILTER INTO THE REGION. AS A RESULT...THERE IS A CHANCE FOR SOME FREEZING TEMPS IN THE OUTLYING AREAS OF WEST TN AND NORTHEAST MS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY MORNINGS IF WINDS SLACKEN OFF ENOUGH AT NIGHT. GFS CONTINUES TO SHOW AN UPPER DISTURBANCE TRYING TO MOVE OVER THE RIDGE AXIS POSITIONED JUST WEST OF THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY. UPPER LEVEL SUBSIDENCE DUE TO THE RIDGE COMBINED WITH LOW LEVEL DRY AIR SHOULD KEEP THE AREA DRY. RAIN CHANCES RISE ONCE AGAIN TOWARDS THE WEEKEND AS ANOTHER SYSTEM ROLLS INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. SYSTEM LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO CURRENT ONE AND MAY HAVE A SEVERE WEATHER THREAT ASSOCIATED WITH IT. && .MEG WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... AR...NONE. MO...NONE. MS...NONE. TN...NONE. && VALLE
