AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
416 PM CDT SUN AUG 3 2008

.DISCUSSION...WHAT A CHANGE FROM JUST 24 HOURS AGO WE HAVE SEEN SOME
AMAZING WEATHER CHANGES BEFORE AND THIS ONE RANKS RIGHT UP THERE. THE
EXCESSIVE HEAT POTENTIAL IS QUICKLY GOING BY THE BOARDS AS THE
COMBINATION OF AN UPPER LEVEL SHEAR AXIS ACROSS THE HEART OF THE CWFA
LEFT IN THE WAKE OF LAST NIGHT/S MCS AND SURGING TROPICAL MOISTURE
FROM THE SE HAS PRODUCED PLENTY OF CLOUDS/SHRA. SURFACE DEWPOINTS/TEMPS
HAVE BEEN CLOSER TO TYPICAL SUMMER TIME VALUES EXCEPT FOR PORTIONS OF
THE DELTA AND HAVE CANCELLED MOST OF THE EXCESSIVE HEAT PORTIONS OF
THE FORECAST FOR NOW.

SO IN THE SHORT TERM(TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)...WW801 WILL BE
TRIMMED BACK FROM E TO W THIS EVENING AS BEST HEATING/INSTABILITY
REMAINS ALONG THE MS RIVER AND POINTS W. IMPRESSIVE EXPLOSION OF TSRA
GOING ON IN THE DELTA WITH VERY HIGH CG RATES. TRENDS SEEM TO BE IN
MOTION FOR THE GULF DEPRESSION TO CONTINUE DEVELOPING AND MOVING
WEST. EXPECT LOW/MID LEVEL FLOW TO TURN ESELY ACROSS AT LEAST SRN 2/3
OF THE CWFA TONIGHT AND THE ENTIRE AREA ON MONDAY. THIS TRANSITION
WILL ALLOW MORE CLOUDS/SHRA TO INVADE FROM THE GULF. A STEADY WWD
MOTION OF THE GULF SYSTEM SHOULD KEEP OUR REGION IN THE MARINE
ENVIRONMENT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT AND PROBABLY INTO TUESDAY.

HAVE BACKED OFF ON TEMPS CLOSER TO LATEST FWCMOS BUT GUIDANCE POPS
STILL DO NOT HAVE A CLUE AND WERE RAISED TO SCATTERED CATEGORY FOR
ABOUT THE SRN HALF OF CWFA(THESE MAY NEED UPWARD ADJUSTMENTS). REST
OF FORECAST LEFT AS IS WITH THE PREVIOUS LONG TERM DISCUSSION TO
FOLLOW. /40/

LONGER TERM...MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT THIS MORNING WITH THE
RECENT HEAT WAVE LASTING INTO WEDNESDAY BEFORE A PATTERN CHANGE
BRINGS LESS OPPRESSIVE HIGH TEMPERATURES AND BETTER RAIN CHANCES BY
THE END OF THE WEEK. A LARGE DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE CENTERED
OVER THE OZARKS MONDAY WITH SURFACE RIDGING ALONG THE GULF COAST
STATES FROM THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. THE EXCEPTION IS A CENTER OF LOW
PRESSURE IN THE NORTHERN GULF SOUTH OF LOUISIANA MONDAY THAT IS
PROGGED TO BE MOVING WEST. THE NAM IS DEEPER BUT FARTHER SOUTH WITH
THE LOW THAN THE ECMWF/GFS/UKMET. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO BE CLOSE
ENOUGH TO THE GULF COAST TO RESULT IN INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND
SLIGHT CHANCES FOR RAIN IN OUR SOUTHERN ZONES MONDAY AFTERNOON. HIGH
PRESSURE SHOULD SUPPRESS CONVECTION IN OUR NORTH. THE INCREASED CLOUD
COVER AND SLIGHT CHANCES FOR RAIN IN THE SOUTH MONDAY SHOULD HELP
KEEP THE SOUTH OUT OF A HEAT ADVISORY...BUT WITH 850MB TEMPS
CONTINUING 22-20C...HIGH TEMPERATURES MONDAY WILL BE AROUND THE
CENTURY MARK OVER THE DELTA WITH UPPER 90S EXPECTED ELSEWHERE OVER
THE NORTHWEST HALF OF THE CWFA. THIS HEAT COMBINED WITH SURFACE DEW
POINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 70S WILL RESULT IN CRITICALLY HIGH HEAT
INDICES. EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNINGS AND HEAT ADVISORIES WILL BE IN
EFFECT FOR THE NORTHERN TWO THIRDS OF THE AREA MONDAY AND TUESDAY. BY
TUESDAY THE LOW IN THE GULF IS EXPECTED TO BE WELL WEST OF OUR AREA
BUT MODELS SHOW AFTERNOON AND EVENING CONVECTION DEVELOPING IN THE
SOUTH AGAIN. THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY FOR
OUR NORTHWEST ZONES AS THE LARGE DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY WEAKENS
OVER OUR REGION. THIS WILL OCCUR AS THE UPPER LEVELS AMPLIFY WITH
RIDGING OVER THE ROCKIES AND TROUGHING OVER THE EASTERN CONUS. THE
RESULTING NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT OVER OUR REGION WILL BRING US SEVERAL
DISTURBANCES AND A COUPLE OF FRONTAL BOUNDARIES THAT WILL HELP
INCREASE CLOUDS AND RAIN CHANCES IN OUR NORTHERN ZONES. BY THURSDAY
THE FIRST FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE STALLED OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY
WHILE A DISTURBANCE COMBINES WITH THE BOUNDARY TO RESULT IN
CONVECTION THAT WILL AFFECT OUR NORTHEAST MOST COUNTIES. A SECOND
MORE POTENT DISTURBANCE IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW WILL HELP DEEPEN THE
UPPER TROUGH OVER THE NORTHEAST CONUS FRIDAY AND HELP SEND THE
STALLED FRONT FARTHER SOUTH TOWARD OUR CWFA. THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF
THE FRONT COMBINED WITH THE DAYTIME HEATING SHOULD RESULT IN
SCATTERED COVERAGE OF STORMS OVER OUR NORTHERN ZONES FRIDAY. THE
QUASI-STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO MEANDER OVER THE
CENTRAL PORTIONS OF OUR CWFA THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND HELP INITIATE
MAINLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION EACH DAY. LOWER HEIGHTS AND
THICKNESSES DUE TO THE INFLUENCE OF THE UPPER TROUGH TO OUR NORTHEAST
AND THE INCREASED RAIN CHANCES THROUGH THE WEEKEND SHOULD SPELL SOME
RELIEF FROM THE RECENT HEAT...WITH TEMPERATURES CLOSER TO SEASONAL
NORMS. /22/

&&

.AVIATION...THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AROUND THE REGION.
MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WAS AWAY FROM THE TAF SITES...BUT STORMS WERE
APPROACHING GWO. JAN AND HBG COULD SEE MORE IMPACTS THROUGH 2Z.
SKIES WERE GENERALLY CLEAR AROUND GLH. NOT ANTICIPATING ANY MUCH
DEVELOPMENT AROUND GLH...BUT WILL MAINTAIN VCTS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING. THERE WAS ACTIVITY DEVELOPING TO THE NORTH AND MAY
MOVE INTO GLH AROUND 00Z. GTR MAY ALSO SEE STORMS DEVELOP BY LATE
EARLY EVENING...BUT VCTS SEEMS OK FOR NOW. EXPECTING THE STORM
ACTIVITY TO END BY 4Z. AFTER 06Z...PATCHY MAY DEVELOP IN THE USUAL
LOCATIONS...SO LEFT FOG IN FOR HBG/MEI AND JAN. THE FOG SHOULD BY
LIFT BY 14 AND WINDS ACROSS THE AREA WILL INCREASE. THE DISTURBANCE
OVER THE NORTHERN GULF WAS EXPECTED TO MOVE WEST...INCREASING
SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW...LEFT MOST SITES NEAR 10KTS...BUT COULD SEE SOME
GUSTS AROUND HBG. LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE RAIN MOVING INTO HBG...
MAYBE MEI/JAN BY THE AFTERNOON. VCTS/SH WILL PROBABLY BE OK./07/

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT AND MONDAY

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS
THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE GREATEST RISK OF SEVERE
STORMS WILL BE ALONG NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM BUDE TO CRYSTAL SPRINGS
TO FOREST. OLD BOUNDARIES...PLENTY OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY WILL
LEAD TO SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THIS EVENING. THE
PRIMARY RISKS WILL BE WIND GUSTS UP TO 70 MPH AND LARGE HAIL.
FREQUENT DANGEROUS LIGHTNING AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS CAUSING WATER TO
COLLECT IN POOR DRAINAGE AREAS IS LIKELY. MINOR FLOODING WILL BE
POSSIBLE WHERE STORMS REDEVELOP OVER THE SAME AREAS.

THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING CONTINUES FOR THE NORTHWEST PORTIONS OF
THE ARKLAMS THROUGH TONIGHT...MAINLY FOR AREAS ALONG AND NORTHWEST OF
A LINE FROM WINNSBORO LOUISIANA...TO GREENWOOD MISSISSIPPI. BREAKS
IN THE CLOUDS AND WARM SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO
CLIMB TO NEAR 100 AGAIN TODAY. HEAT INDEX VALUES ACROSS THE
NORTHWEST WILL BE NEAR 110 DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON. OVERNIGHT LOWS
WILL REMAIN IN THE MID 70S. PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO PROTECT
THOSE SUSCEPTIBLE TO HEAT THROUGH TONIGHT.

FOR MONDAY...TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR 100 AND HEAT INDEX VALUES
WILL APPROACH 105 DEGREES AGAIN ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER DELTA
REGION.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY

HOT TEMPERATURES WILL REDEVELOP ACROSS THE NORTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE
AREA AGAIN TUESDAY. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL REMAIN IN THE MID 70S AND
HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE AROUND 100. HEAT INDEX VALUES RANGE FROM
105 TO 108 DEGREES. A HEAT ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED FOR MONDAY AND
TUESDAY FOR THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER DELTA REGION. REVIEW YOUR HEAT
STRESS SAFETY RULES AND MAKE PLANS NOW TO AVOID PROLONGED EXPOSURE
TO THE HOT CONDITIONS.

.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 AFTERNOON AND EVENING. OTHERWISE
ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY.
