AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
330 PM CST WED NOV 21 2007

.DISCUSSION...FROM NOW UNTIL ABOUT MIDNIGHT...THE FOCUS WILL BE ON
THE APPROACH OF THE SFC FRONT AND SVR WX POTENTIAL IN ADVANCE OF IT.
BETWEEN 2-5 PM...THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ENHANCED RISK ACROSS THE SE
CWA. HERE IS WHERE A BETTER MARINE LAYER IS PUSHING N OUT OF SE LA
HELPING TO INCREASE THE INSTABILITY ALONG WITH KEEPING LCL LEVELS
LOW AS HEATING OCCUR. ADDITIONALLY...THIS AREA IS CLOSER TO THE
HIGHER DEEP LAYER SHEAR AS THE SHORT WAVE CONTINUES TO LIFT OUT OF
SE TX AND SW LA. THIS AREA IS ALREADY SEEING CONVECTION INCREASE AND
SHOULD CONTINUE TO SEE IT FOR SEVERAL MORE HOURS. SUPERCELL
STRUCTURES ARE LIKELY AND THE RISK FOR ISO TORNADOES WILL BE
POSSIBLE AS WELL AS HAIL/DAMAGING WINDS.

THE REST OF THE CWA WILL SEE THE ACTIVITY INCREASE BETWEEN 3-7 PM
FROM W-E...MAINLY ACROSS AREAS ALONG AND NW OF THE TRACE. THIS IS
WHERE THE BEST 0-2KM THETA E ADV WILL BE ALONG WITH THE STRONG
ASCENT FROM THE SHORT WAVE. AS OF 20Z...THE I-55 CORRIDOR IS IN A
THETA E MINIMUM...BUT THE MOISTURE ADV WILL TAKE THAT AREA OVER
AFTER 5-6 PM IN ADVANCE OF THE SFC FRONT.

BASED ON RECENT TRENDS...DISCRETE CELLS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE
IN ADVANCE OF THE SFC FRONT...KEEPING THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES
STILL VIABLE ALONG WITH HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. BEST CHANCE FOR
HAIL WOULD LIKELY BE ACROSS OUR W/SW 2/3...GENERALLY WHERE THE
HIGHEST INSTABILITY WILL EXIST. THAT SHOULD DECREASE AS WE GO INTO
THE EVENING AND LOSE HEATING/INSTABILITY SOME. SVR WX RISK SHOULD
DIMINISH AROUND MIDNIGHT.

SHIFTING TO THE PROGRESSION OF THE SFC FRONT...LOOKS LIKE IT WILL
ENTER THE FAR NW CWA BETWEEN 6-7PM...BE ALIGNED NEAR THE YAZOO RIVER
BY 9 PM...ALONG THE TRACE AROUND 11PM TO MIDNIGHT AND THEN EXITING
THE SE CWA BETWEEN 5-7AM. NOTHING MUCH HAS CHANGED WITH THE THINKING
BEHIND THE FRONT...TEMPS WILL DROP QUICKLY INTO THE 50S WITH A GOOD
PORTION OF THE CWA FALLING TO THE MID/UPPER 40S BETWEEN 12-14. THE
SE CWA WILL ONLY BOTTOM OUT IN THE LOWER 50S. WITH STRONG CAA IN
PLACE ON THANKSGIVING...TEMPS WILL NOT REBOUND MUCH. IM ONLY
THINKING THEY MAY RISE 2-4 DEGREES AT BEST. THIS WILL KEEP HIGHS IN
THE UPPER 40S ACROSS THE NW/N-CENTRAL AND 50-54 ACROSS THE I-20
CORRIDOR AND POINTS SOUTH. THERE WILL BE A GOOD BIT OF CLOUDS...BUT
SOME AREAS WILL SEE SOME BREAKS...BUT IT WILL NOT GET TOTALLY CLEAR.
THU NIGHT...TEMPS WILL GET COLD...BUT THE COMBINATION OF WINDS AND
INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS SHOULD KEEP TEMPS FROM GETTING TO LOW.
FOLLOWED GUID WITH JUST A FEW TWEAKS DOWNWARD ACROSS THE N.  /CME/

LONG TERM....FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES WERE A CONCERN
IN THE 36-72 HR RANGE AND POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE REMAINS UNCERTAIN FOR
SUNDAY/MONDAY. IN THE NEAR TERM...WENT WITH A BLEND ON TEMPS. LIKED
THE COOLER NAM VALUES AND THE NAM SOLUTION FOR THE MOST PART.
HOWEVER IT WAS A BIT DRIER AND COOLER...SO BLENDED THE NAM/GFS FOR
FRI-SAT NIGHT. WARM AIR/MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL KICK IN SATURDAY
THROUGH SUNDAY...SO TEMPS SHOULD WARM SLIGHTLY. TEMPS WERE GOOD FOR
THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. HAD A FEW TROUBLES WITH THE PRECIP AND
CLOUD COVER FOR FRIDAY. TRIED TO USE A BLEND...GFS CONTINUES TO SHOW
LARGE AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE QUICKLY MOVING INTO THE WESTERN AREAS ON
FRIDAY AND MAYBE SOME RAIN. GUIDANCE CAME IN WITH CHANCE POPS...BUT
BACKED OFF TO SLIGHT CHANCE. AGAIN THE DRIER NAM SOLUTION SHOWED
LESS MOISTURE MOVING INTO THE AREA AND HELD OFF ON THE RAIN UNTIL
MUCH LATER. GFS SUGGESTS A TROUGH AXIS AROUND 850MB MAY LINGER OVER
THE AREA FRIDAY...KEEPING MOISTURE AND CLOUDS IN PLACE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. LOOKING AT CROSS SECTIONS THERE MAY BE ENOUGH LIFT TO
PRODUCE SOME LIGHT RAIN THROUGH THE MORNING. NOT COMPLETELY
CONVINCED EITHER WAY...SO LEFT LOW POPS IN FOR AREAS WEST OF I-55.
HIGH POPS FOR SATURDAY WERE GOOD...HOWEVER THE MODEL SEEMED A LITTLE
BIT SLOWER THIS RUN...SO THE BEST MOISTURE AND ADVECTION AND WINDOW
FOR RAIN MAY BE SHIFTED INTO THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
MAINTAINED CURRENT FORECAST...SINCE CATEGORICAL VALUES WERE ALREADY
IN THE FORECAST.

FOR SUNDAY...COULD NOT IMPROVE ON THE FORECAST AT THIS POINT. STILL
LOOKING FOR DEEP MOISTURE TO MOVE INTO THE AREA...ESPECIALLY WITH
SOUTHWEST FLOW FROM 850MB UP. THE GFS/00Z EUROPEAN WERE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT AGAIN TODAY. BOTH SHOW THE UPPER TROUGH DEEPENING AND
DIGGING PRETTY FAR SOUTH AS IT PIVOTS THROUGH CENTRAL TEXAS SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. THE SURFACE LOW DEVELOPS ALONG THE SOUTHEAST TEXAS COAST
AND TRACKS NORTHEAST THROUGH THE CWA...ALMOST UP I-55. THE 12Z
EUROPEAN WAS A LITTLE FURTHER WEST...BUT THE TIMING WAS SIMILAR TO
THE GFS. IN ADDITION TO THE POSITION OF THE LOW BEING A LITTLE
FARTHER WEST...THE SYSTEM WAS SLOWER ON THE DGEX. THE UKMET WAS ALSO
TRENDING SLOWER...WITH THE SURFACE FEATURE JUST COMING ON SHORE BY
MONDAY MORNING.

THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST THAT THE BEST SHEAR AND INSTABILITY
WILL BE ACROSS THE SOUTH AND EAST. HOWEVER...THE QUESTIONS STILL
REMAINS WHETHER IT WILL BE MOSTLY HEAVY RAIN OR STRONG/SEVERE
STORMS. HOPEFULLY THE NEXT FEW MODEL RUNS WILL BE A LITTLE MORE
CONSISTENT WITH THE TRACK. WILL KEEP A GENERAL DESCRIPTION IN THE
HWO AT THIS POINT. OVERALL NO MAJOR CHANGES TO THE FORECAST...JUST A
FEW TWEAKS TO THE TEMPS AND THE SKY COVER FOR NOW.  /07/

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI...
NORTHEAST LOUISIANA...AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT AND THURSDAY

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED STRONG AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE FROM LATE AFTERNOON UNTIL AROUND MIDNIGHT. THROUGH ABOUT 6
PM...AREAS ACROSS SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI WILL BE UNDER THE RISK AS A
FEW SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS MOVE EAST NORTHEAST. HAIL...DAMAGING
WINDS AND ISOLATED TORNADOES WILL ALL BE POSSIBLE. FOR AREAS ALONG
AND WEST OF I-55...INSTABILITY IS HIGHER AND STRONG LIFT IS MOVING
INTO THE AREA FROM THE WEST. THIS AREA WILL SEE STORMS INCREASE
ALONG WITH THEIR INTENSITIES BETWEEN 4 PM AND MIDNIGHT. A STRONG
COLD FRONT WILL ALSO ENTER AND MOVE THROUGH THE AREA HELPING TO
INCREASE THE LIFT. THE MAIN RISK FOR THIS AREA WILL BE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS...WITH A SMALL RISK OF ISOLATED TORNADOES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY

ANOTHER POTENT STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA OVER THE
WEEKEND. BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON...MOISTURE...WINDS AND INSTABILITY WILL
INCREASE ACROSS THE REGION. THE UNSTABLE CONDITIONS WILL MAKE THE
AREA FAVORABLE FOR STORM DEVELOPMENT AS THE SYSTEM APPROACHES. THERE
WILL ALSO BE THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL. THE TIMING AND TRACK
OF THIS SYSTEM REMAINS UNCERTAIN AND WILL HAVE A MAJOR IMPACT ON HOW
MUCH SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE...IF AT ALL. AS THE WEEKEND
APPROACHES...CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST STATEMENTS AND FORECASTS
FOR UPDATES.

.SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
THE ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS...HAM RADIO OPERATORS...AND
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL IN SUPPORT OF SEVERE WEATHER
OPERATIONS...MAY BE NEEDED THIS EVENING AND AGAIN BETWEEN SUNDAY AND
EARLY MONDAY.
