AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1114 AM CDT TUE JUN 24 2008

.DISCUSSION...IT HAS BEEN A PLEASANT START TO THE MORNING. CLEAR
SKIES HAVE ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO WARM UP QUICKLY WITH MOST OF THE
REGION ALREADY GETTING INTO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 80S. WE ARE HEADED
FOR ANOTHER WARM DAY WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 90S AREAWIDE.
YESTERDAY WAS FAIRLY WARM AND TODAY SHOULD BE JUST AS WARM OR A
LITTLE WARMER. CU HAS STARTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THE COAST AND THIS
SHOULD CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE MORNING INTO THE
AFTERNOON. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY...ALONG WITH TROPOPAUSE HEIGHT AND
TEMP ANALYSIS...INDICATES THE PRESENCE OF A SUBTLE SHORTWAVE
APPROACHING FROM THE NORTH WHICH COULD BECOME AN INSTIGATOR FOR
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE
AREA THIS AFTERNOON. 12Z KJAN RAOB INDICATES A LITTLE MORE MOISTURE
THIS MORNING THAN YESTERDAY AND ANALYSIS OF MICROBURST POTENTIAL
INDICATES POSSIBILITY FOR ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WITH
VERTICAL TOTALS OF 29-30. CAPE AND PWATS APPEAR MARGINAL AT THIS TIME
BUT IF WE DO NOT MIX DOWN MUCH DRY AIR AND CAN WARM UP WHILE HANGING
ONTO 65 OR HIGHER DEWPOINTS...THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR STORMS TO
POP THIS AFTERNOON AND GET TO SEVERE LIMITS. THAT BEING SAID...HAVE
RAISED POTENTIAL FOR SVR HAIL AND WIND IN THE PROB HAZARD GRIDS AND
HAVE LEFT PREVIOUS WORDING IN THE HWO FOR ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE.
IT LOOKS LIKE THE BEST CHANCE FOR THIS TO OCCUR WOULD BE WEST OF I-55
AND MORESO TOWARDS THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
INTO AND ACROSS THE EAST...EXPECT THIS AREA TO REMAIN RATHER DRY AND
KEEP THE ACTIVITY TO THE WEST. LIGHT LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW DOES
NOT INDICATE A HIGH CHANCE FOR A SEA BREEZE TO MAKE IT FAR NORTH...SO
ALL ACTIVITY LOOKS TO OCCUR ACROSS THE WEST AND SOUTHWEST THIS
AFTERNOON.

TWEAKED HOURLY TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS TO ACCOUNT FOR OBSERVED TRENDS.
OTHERWISE...FORECAST LOOKS ON TRACK. NO OTHER CHANGES TO ZONES WERE
NECESSARY. UPDATED PRODUCTS OUT AND POSTED TO THE WEB.

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS LOOK TO PREVAIL FOR TODAY.
NO MAJOR AVIATION CONCERNS PRESENT. SKIES SHOULD REMAIN CLEAR WITH
SOME FEW TO SCT CU DEVELOPING THIS AFTERNOON BUT CEILINGS SHOULD
REMAIN ABOVE 4-5 KFT. ISOLATED RAIN CHANCES REMAIN FOR AREAS WEST OF
I-55 BUT SHOULD NOT CAUSE MUCH OF A PROBLEM TO ANY TAF SITE. WINDS
SHOULD BE SOUTHERLY AND AROUND 5 KT. SKIES WILL CLEAR THIS EVENING
AND INTO TONIGHT WITH NO MAJOR RESTRICTIONS EXPECTED.
