AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
400 PM CDT FRI AUG 15 2008

.SHORT TERM...IT IS NOW LOOKING LIKE A DECENT CHANCE AT WIDESPREAD
RAINFALL FOR THE REGION BETWEEN TONIGHT AND TOMORROW AS A POTENT
AUGUST DISTURBANCE CROSSES THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. FOR MANY
DAYS PREVIOUS MODELS HAVE SUGGESTED THERE WOULD NOT BE ENOUGH
MOISTURE IN THE VICINITY TO PRODUCE GOOD OPPORTUNITIES FOR RAIN WHEN
THIS DISTURBANCE PASSED THROUGH. NOW IT APPEARS THAT MODERATE
MOISTURE LEVELS (1.75 TO 2 INCH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES) WILL BE
ENOUGH IN THE PRESENCE OF A WEST TO EAST ORIENTED BAROCLINIC ZONE TO
GENERATE A GOOD COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS
DURING THIS PERIOD. BEST CHANCES OF RAIN TONIGHT WILL BE ALONG AND
WEST OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE CORRIDOR WHERE MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AND
MOISTURE TRANSPORT VECTORS WILL BE BEST. THE HIGHEST POTENTIAL FOR
WETNESS SHOULD BE LOCATED ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE TWENTY
CORRIDOR TOMORROW WITH RAIN CHANCES TAPERING OFF FROM NORTH TO SOUTH
LATE IN THE DAY AS ENERGETIC FORCING ALOFT SHIFTS TO OUR EAST.

THIS WOULD BE A SET UP FOR LOTS OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR THE AREA THIS
TIME OF YEAR IF INSTABILITY WERE HIGHER...BUT EXPECTATIONS OF RATHER
TAME ATMOPHERIC LAPSE RATES THROUGH TOMORROW IN MOST AREAS SHOULD
KEEP THE THREAT FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE STORMS LOW...ALTHOUGH ISOLATED
SEVERE STORMS WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE. THE MAIN THREATS SHOULD BE
HIGH WINDS...ESPECIALLY IF ANY ORGANIZED CLUSTERS OF STORMS CAN
DEVELOP. ALSO OF POTENTIAL CONCERN IS THE RISK OF HEAVY RAINFALL.
THIS RISK APPEARS HIGHEST TONIGHT IN NORTHWEST ZONES WHERE THE
COMBINATION OF INSTABILITY...MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND ATMSOPHERIC LIFT
WILL BE MAXIMIZED. OTHERWISE THE THREAT OF EXCESSIVE RAIN (AMOUNTS
OVER 2 TO 3 INCHES) APPEARS TO BE VERY LOCALIZED AND NOT WORTHY OF A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH. SEE THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR MORE
DETAILS.

BY SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY THERE SHOULD BE A TEMPORARY LULL IN
RAINFALL AS DISTURBANCES SHIFT TO THE EAST OF THE REGION AND THE
MAIN MOISTURE AXIS IS SHOVED SOUTH TOWARD THE GULF COAST. /BB/

.LONG TERM...

LATE SUN THROUGH TUE...QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY HERE BUT THESE
DAYS DO APPEAR TO BE THE DECENT CHANCES FOR SOME ADDITIONAL RAIN.
MOISTURE WILL BE ON THE INCREASE WITH PWS INCREASING FROM JUST ABV
1.25 TO NEAR 2. THE CLOSED UPPER LOW ON THE LEE SIDE OF THE
ROCKIES SUN WILL SLOWLY WORK EAST INTO THE CNTRL PLAINS BY TUE AND
THIS FEATURE WILL TRY TO SEND A FEW IMPULSES OUR WAY. THIS SHOULD
HELP GET ISLTD TO SCT CONVECTION ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE CWA. LOOK
FOR THE BEST CHANCE FOR RAIN ON SUN TO BE ACROSS THE SW. THIS AREA
WILL BE THE FIRST TO SEE THE INCREASE IN MOISTURE AND WILL BE
CLOSEST TO THE FIRST OF MULTIPLE WAVES TO ROTATE AROUND THE LOW.
WITH THE UPPER LOW PUSHING EAST ON MON THE RAIN CHANCES SHOULD GET A
LITTLE BETTER AND EXPAND TO THE EAST SOME. MOISTURE SHOULD NOT BE
TOO MUCH OF A PROBLEM AND AS ANY ONE OF THESE NEXT DISTURBANCES
MOVES TWRDS THE REGION SHRA AND TSRA SHOULD DEVELOP DURING THE DAY.
TUE MAY BE QUITE SIMILAR TO MON WITH THE BEST CHANCE OF RAIN ACROSS
THE WRN HALF OF THE CWA(CLOSER TO THE INFLUENCE OF THE UPPER LOW).
IF THE UPPER LOW IS A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH AND EAST THEN POPS WILL
LIKELY NEED TO BE RAISED ACROSS THE AREA FOR MON AND TUE. AS FOR
TEMPERATURES LOOK FOR THE AREA TO BE NEAR NORMAL. H925 TEMPS WILL BE
RIGHT AROUND 24-25C AND THIS SHOULD ALLOW EVERYONE TO APPROACH 90
WITH AREAS OUTSIDE OF THE RAIN GETTING INTO THE LOWER 90S AND THE
AREAS THAT SEE RAIN POSSIBLY STAYING IN THE UPPER 80S.

HEADING INTO THE REST OF THE WEEK...THE MDLS SEEM TO WANT TO QUICKLY
BUILD IN A RIDGE OVER THE SERN/ERN CONUS WITH THE RIDGE AXIS
EXTENDING THROUGH CNTRL MS INTO SRN LA(NE TO SW). THE RIDGE SHOWN BY
THE MDLS NOW IS QUITE STRONG AND WOULD LIKELY KEEP THE AREA MOSTLY
DRY. THIS DOES APPEAR TO BE SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT FROM PREVIOUS MDLS
RUNS AND FCST AND WITH THAT I WILL JUST STICK WITH THE DRIER AND
WARMER GUI VALUES. OTHER THAN THAT WE WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THE
TROPICS AND ON THAT DISTURBANCE MOVING TWRDS PUERTO RICO. /CAB/

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AT MOST TAF SITES INTO
TONIGHT.  ISOLATED CONVECTION IS ONGOING MAINLY THE DELTA REGION
THIS AFTERNOON...KGLH AND KGWO...AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE TO
THE WEST IS INTERACTING WITH A STALLED BOUNDARY OVER THE AREA.  THIS
TREND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH A GOOD BIT OF TONIGHT...WITH ACTIVITY
EXPECTING TO BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD SATURDAY MORNING...AND INTO
SATURDAY AFTERNOON AS A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES ARE POISED TO MOVE
ACROSS THE AREA.  MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES WILL BRIEFLY BE
POSSIBLE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AT SITES WHERE CONVECTION IS
OBSERVED.  THEN THROUGH THE NIGHT...MVFR...TO OCCASIONAL
IFR...CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL AS DEEP MOISTURE INCREASES AND
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD THROUGH THE DAY
SATURDAY. /19/

312 PM CDT FRI AUG 15 2008

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT AND SATURDAY

ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
OUTLOOK AREA THIS EVENING AND INTO TONIGHT. STRONG DAMAGING WINDS AND
HAIL WILL BE THE PRIMARY CONCERNS ASSOCIATED WITH ANY STORMS THAT
BECOME SEVERE. THE AREA WITH THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR SEEING ANY
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL BE AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF A NATCHEZ TO
YAZOO CITY TO EUPORA LINE. THESE LATTER AREAS WILL ALSO HAVE HIGHER
POSSIBILITIES OF EXPERIENCING LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS FROM THUNDERSTORM
DOWNPOURS. AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CONTINUE TO APPROACH THE
OUTLOOK AREA FROM THE WEST AND INTERACT WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN
AN INCREASINGLY MOISTURE AIRMASS. AS THIS OCCURS...THUNDERSTORMS
WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT...WITH SOME
POTENTIALLY BECOMING AT LEAST BRIEFLY INTENSE.

ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE ACROSS
PORTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA THROUGH THE DAY SATURDAY. STRONG
DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN WITH ANY SEVERE
STORMS...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HAIL ALSO PRESENT. THE AREA WITH
THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR SEEING ANY STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL
BE AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20. ONCE AGAIN WITH A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY STALLED ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA...SEVERAL UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES ARE FORECAST TO TRAVERSE THE BOUNDARY AND COMBINE WITH
AN INCREASINGLY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS PRESENT OVER THE
AREA...THUS ALLOWING SHOWERS AND POTENTIALLY VIGOROUS THUNDERSTORMS
TO DEVELOP OVER THE AREA.

IN ADDITION...HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE AREA
SATURDAY...ESPECIALLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE 20
CORRIDOR. WITH DEEP MOISTURE INCREASING THROUGH AT LEAST THE FIRST
HALF OF THE DAY AND DISTURBANCES CONTINUING TO MOVE EAST ALONG THE
STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY...ITS POSSIBLE THAT SOME SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS COULD MOVE OVER THE SAME LOCATIONS WITHIN A SHORT
AMOUNT OF TIME. THIS COULD LEAD TO THE PONDING OF WATER ON ROADS, AS
WELL AS IN POOR DRAINAGE AREAS AND IN LOW LYING AREA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY

THE PROBABILITY FOR WIDESPREAD HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS LOW.

.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 TONIGHT AND TOMORROW.  OTHERWISE...
ACTIVATION IS NOT EXPECTED THURSDAY AUGUST 21ST.
