AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
325 PM CDT THU MAY 10 2007

.DISCUSSION...TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON...CONVECTION IS
BREAKING OUT ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA AS
EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON.  AN OLD OUTFLOW BOUNDARY LEFT OVER FROM
YESTERDAYS CONVECTION CONTINUES TO MEANDER ACROSS THE CWA
STRETCHING FROM NEAR NATCHEZ TO JACKSON TO JUST NORTH OF MERIDIAN.
THE AIRMASS NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY IS QUITE MOIST AND UNSTABLE WITH
MID AND UPPER 60S DEW POINTS OBSERVED.  WHILE SOUTH OF THIS
BOUNDARY...A DRIER AIRMASS EXISTS WHICH IS AIDING IN HAMPERING
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.

THE MOISTURE RICH AIRMASS NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY...COUPLED WITH
6.5-7C MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...AND ML CAPE VALUES GENERALLY BETWEEN
1300-2000 J/KG...WILL ALLOW STORMS TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER THESE
AREAS THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING HOURS.  SOME STORMS THAT DEVELOP IN
AREAS MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF A NATCHEZ...TO JACKSON...DE KALB
LINE COULD BECOME STRONG...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE HIGHWAY 82 CORRIDOR
WHERE THE BEST INSTABILITY EXITS...WITH HAIL AND WIND GUSTS AROUND
45 MPH BEING THE PRIMARY CONCERNS.  AS A RESULT...ILL CONTINUE TO
HIGHLIGHT THIS AREA IN THE HWO.  IN ADDITION...GIVEN THE LACK OF LOW
LEVEL FLOW...STORM MOTION WITH THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE NEARLY
NON-EXISTENT AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE IN AREAS
WHERE STORMS DEVELOP.

GIVEN THE DIURNAL NATURE OF THIS CONVECTION...MUCH OF THIS ACTIVITY
WILL BEGIN TO DISSIPATE AFTER SUNSET LATER THIS EVENING AND DRY
CONDITIONS WILL ENSUE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

THIS SUMMER-LIKE PATTERN WILL REMAIN INTACT ONCE AGAIN ON FRIDAY
BRINGING HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS TO THE AREA.  THE UPPER LEVEL
LOW...CURRENTLY SEEN ON WATER VAPOR OVER CENTRAL TEXAS...WILL
CONTINUE TO SINK SOUTHEAST INTO THE NORTHWESTERN GULF OF MEXICO.
COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS MAV POPS...GUIDANCE POPS CAME WAY DOWN FOR
FRIDAY TO ALMOST NO POPS AT ALL IN ALL LOCATIONS BUT THE SOUTHWEST.
GIVEN THAT NOT A WHOLE LOT WILL CHANGE IN TERMS OF THE AIRMASS OVER
US TOMORROW...COUPLED WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES
FROM THIS AFTERNOONS ACTIVITY HANGING AROUND TOMORROW...I WASNT SO
KEEN ON THE DRIER 12Z MAV NUMBERS.  AS A RESULT...I BUMPED POPS UP
IN MOST AREAS TOMORROW TO AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON. /19/

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT THURSDAY...MODELS PERSIST IN KEEPING LOWER
UPPER HEIGHT FIELDS STRETCHED E-W ACROSS THE GULF FOR THE WEEKEND AS
TX LOW MOVES THROUGH ERN GULF SATURDAY. THIS ALLOWS WEAK MID LEVEL
RIDGING ACROSS THE GULF STATES TO DISCOURAGE CONVECTION ALONG A
BACKDOOR FRONTAL ZONE DROPPING SWD FROM TN VALLEY LATE SATURDAY.
HOPEFULLY...ENOUGH DIURNAL INSTABILITY WILL BE MAINTAINED IN DECENT
PWAT AIRMASS(1.6) FOR SCATTERED TSRA. THEN A BUILDING UPPER RIDGE
FROM THE NRN CONUS TO UPPER MS VALLEY SUNDAY TENDS TO DRY US OUT
FROM N TO S HEADING INTO THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK.
FINALLY...EVOLVING MOSTLY ZONAL FLOW SETS UP ACROSS THE CONUS FOR
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WHEN ANOTHER FRONTAL ZONE COULD ARRIVE
TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY HELPING TO ENHANCE CONVECTIVE RAIN CHANCES.

OTHERWISE...PER PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...EXPECT SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL
AFTERNOON HIGHS OF 85-89F AND OVERNIGHT LOWS OF 63-67F. LATEST GFS
ALSO HOLDING THE STALLED SURFACE FRONT ALONG THE COAST AND THAT
MAKES FOR AT LEAST 4 MODEL CYCLES PUSHING FOR THAT POSITION ALONG
WITH THE ENSEMBLE MEANS. AIRMASS DRIES TO UNDER 1 INCH PWATS ALONG
AND N OF I-20 FOR MONDAY BUT EXPECT THE FRONT COULD BEGIN RETURNING
NORTH LATE MONDAY NIGHT WHICH COULD SET UP SOME NEEDED LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINS OF 1 OR 2 INCHES BY TUESDAY NIGHT WHEN AIRMASS JUICES BACK UP
TO 1.5 INCH PWATS. SOME DISAGREEMENT IN MODEL SUITES ON WHEN THE MID
WEEK PACIFIC FRONT ARRIVES WITH ECMWF SLOWEST BY HOLDING SYSTEM BACK
UNTIL LATE WEDNESDAY. SINCE GFS HAS BEEN TRENDING FASTER...LOOK FOR
GREATEST CHANCES FOR RAIN TO BE FOCUSED ALONG THE BOUNDARY EARLY
NEXT WEDNESDAY FOLLOWED BY SOMEWHAT COOLER DRIER TREND THURSDAY AND
BEYOND WITH 564DM 1000-500MB THICKNESSES DIPPING INTO THE CWFA. /40/

&&

.AVIATION......VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD CONTINUE AT MOST TAF SITES
THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.  HOWEVER...ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE AT SITES MAINLY ALONG
AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 20...KGLH...KGWO...KGTR...KJAN...AND
KMEI...THROUGH AROUND 02Z TONIGHT.  CONVECTION SHOULD DECREASE
DURING THE EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.  VFR CONDITIONS
WILL THEN CONTINUE AT MOST LOCATIONS...BUT FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE
THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS FRIDAY...ESPECIALLY AT LOCATIONS
THAT RECEIVED RAINFALL THURSDAY AFTERNOON...AND LOCALLY MVFR
VISIBILITIES WILL BE POSSIBLE DURING THIS TIME. /19/
