The radar
The Columbus AFB radar (KGWX), 158 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 17:21 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.
Open the radar archive at this moment
The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Little Rock, AR (KLZK), launched 12:00Z, 5.3 hours before the alert went out and 118 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1130 AM CDT WED MAY 6 2009
...SEVERE WEATHER AND FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE CENTRAL AND SOUTH THIS
AFTERNOON...
.UPDATE...FIRST WAVE ACROSS NORTH THIS MORNING HAS SHIFTED EAST AND
THE SECOND WAS CURRENTLY MOVING INTO THE CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE
CWFA. THE NORTH GENERALLY ALONG THE HIGHWAY 82 WILL STILL SEE
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON BUT THE IMMEDIATE SEVERE
THREAT HAS SHIFTED SOUTH. A FEW ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF
LARGE HAIL REMAIN POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON. THE CURRENT MCS OVER THE
CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE AREA WILL CONTINUE TO SAG EAST SOUTHEAST
THIS AFTERNOON AND MAINTAIN A SEVERE STORM THREAT SOUTH TO THE
HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR. WITH THE HEAVY RAIN THREAT FROM INDIVIDUAL AND
TRAINING STORMS HAVE EXPANDED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH SOUTH TO JUST
NORTH OF HIGHWAY 84. TEMPERATURES FORECAST TOUGH TODAY. HAVE LOWERED
MAXES IN NORTH AND SOUTH. THE RAIN COOLED NORTH WILL BE HARD TO
RECOVER AND SOUTH WILL HAVE A HARD TIME REACHING FORECAST HIGHS
BEFORE CLOUDS AND RAIN MOVES IN. MORE UPDATES LIKELY BUT RECENT
CHANGES HAVE BEEN POSTED. /22/
&&
.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY
NIGHT...THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE FORECAST WILL BE ON TODAY WHERE THE
THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER AND FLASH FLOODING EXISTS ACROSS A GOOD BIT
OF THE FORECAST AREA. THE WARM FRONT CONTINUES TO SLOWLY LIFT
NORTHWARD ACROSS MAINLY NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST ARA THIS
MORNING. THIS HAS ALLOWED MOISTURE TO SURGE NORTHWARD INTO THE
REGION AS SITES SOUTH OF THE FRONT ARE OBSERVING DEW POINTS AROUND
70. MEANWHILE...JUST NORTH OF THE FRONT...STRONG TO SEVERE
CONVECTION STRETCHES EAST TO WEST FROM NORTH ALABAMA... THROUGH
NORTH MISSISSIPPI...AND THROUGH SOUTH CENTRAL ARKANSAS.
THIS COMPLEX OF STORMS...NOW MOVING INTO SOUTH ARKANSAS AND
NORTHWEST MISSISSIPPI...WILL CONTINUE TO STEADILY MOVE EAST
SOUTHEAST OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND IMPACT MY NORTHERN ZONES FIRST
OFF THIS MORNING...AND CONTINUE TO DROP FURTHER EAST SOUTHEAST INTO
THE AFTERNOON. THIS COMPLEX RESIDES IN THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF AN
UPPER LEVEL JET THAT'S NOSING EAST AND SOUTHWARD INTO THE ARKLATEX
REGION. THIS ENHANCEMENT COUPLED WITH THE FORCING ALONG THE
NORTHWARD MOVING BOUNDARY...STEEP LAPSE RATES...AND GOOD INSTABILITY
WILL ALLOW THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONG DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE HAIL...AS
WELL A FEW TORNADOES TO EXIST ACROSS MY NORTH THROUGH THE MORNING
HOURS. SEVERAL BOW ECHOES ARE ALSO BEING OBSERVED WITH THIS
ACTIVITY AS IT BEGINS TO SKIRT THE FAR NORTHERN PARTS OF MY CWA.
IN ADDITION TO THIS...GIVEN THAT THIS CURRENT ACTIVITY IS GENERALLY
MOVING ALONG A WEST NORTHWEST TO EAST SOUTHEAST TRAJECTORY...IT'S
TRAINING ACROSS THE SAME LOCATIONS. AS A RESULT...A FLASH FLOOD
WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL THIS AFTERNOON FOR LOCATIONS GENERALLY
ALONG AND NORTH OF A RAYVILLE LOUISIANA...TO VICKSBURG
MISSISSIPPI...TO YAZOO CITY...TO LEXINGTON...TO MACON LINE. GIVEN
HOW THINGS PLAY OUT THROUGH THE LATE MORNING HOURS...THIS AREA COULD
BE EXPANDED IN AREA AS WELL AS EXTENDED IN TIME AS THIS ACTIVITY
CONTINUES TO DROP FURTHER EAST SOUTHEAST.
ANOTHER COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS IS ALSO BEGINNING TO EVOLVE ACROSS
SOUTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA THIS MORNING AS A PRETTY DECENT UPPER TROUGH
CONTINUES TO SWING THROUGH THAT AREA. I DON'T THINK THE WARM FRONT
IS GOING TO MOVE TOO MUCH FURTHER TO THE NORTH THAN WHAT IT ALREADY
HAS SINCE IT'S BEGINNING TO INTERACT WITH THE ONGOING CONVECTION
ACROSS THE NORTH. MEANWHILE...AS THE TROUGH CONTINUES TO SWING EAST
ACROSS THE AREA...AND WITH A PRETTY DECENT UPPER LEVEL JET
CONTINUING TO DRIVE SOUTHEAST...THE COMPLEX OF STORMS THAT'S
CURRENTLY BEGINNING TO IMPACT MY NORTHERN ZONES...AS WELL AS THE
EVOLVING COMPLEX OVER SOUTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA...WILL EVOLVE INTO A
LINE OF CONVECTION THAT'S DRIVEN SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF
MY CWA DURING THE DAY...BY THE BEFORE MENTIONED UPPER JET.
DURING THIS TIME FRAME...ESSENTIALLY FOR TODAY AND INTO THE EVENING
HOURS...I SEE ALL MODES OF SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE...INCLUDING THE
THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING AS A GOOD BIT OF THIS ACTIVITY WILL TRAIN
ACROSS THE SAME AREAS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS MY NORTH WHICH HAS ALREADY
RECEIVED RAINFALL AMOUNTS OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS ON THE ORDER OF 2
TO 5 INCHES. WITH SUCH A PUSH ALOFT BY THE UPPER JET...SEVERAL
BOWING SEGMENTS WITHIN STORMS CAN BE EXPECTED WHICH WILL PRODUCE
STRONG DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS. THEN WITH VERY STEEP LAPSE
RATES AND AMPLE AMOUNTS OF INSTABILITY EXPECTED...LARGE HAIL IS
LIKELY WITH SIZES RANGING FROM AT LEAST PENNY TO GOLF BALL SIZE.
ALSO A FEW TORNADOES CAN'T BE RULED OUT.
FOR TONIGHT...LOOK FOR THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER...AS WELL AS
FLASH FLOODING TO SHIFT MORE TO THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST
AREA...BUT BEGIN TO SLOWLY WANE DOWN.
FOR THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT...THE PICTURE OF WHAT WILL
TRANSPIRE CLOUDS UP QUICKLY...AND WILL LIKELY HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE
WHAT EVOLVES AND FORECAST FROM THERE TO GAIN ANY CONFIDENCE IN
EXACTLY WHAT PLAYS OUT. SOME MODELS WANT TO BLOW THROUGH ANOTHER
COMPLEX OF SHOWERS AND STORMS EITHER THROUGH OR NEAR THE CWA...WHILE
OTHERS FOR THE MOST PART KEEP US DRY. GUIDANCE POPS CAME IN
DRASTICALLY LOWER THAN PREVIOUS ADVERTISED NUMBERS. THE AIRMASS
OVER THE CWA WILL CERTAINLY TAKE A GOOD HIT BY TODAY'S
CONVECTION...BUT IN THE SOUTH THERE COULD BE SOME UNUSED/UNTAPPED
JUICE WHICH COULD ALLOW SOME ACTIVITY TO DEVELOP DURING THE HEAT OF
THE DAY THURSDAY. AS A RESULT I DID UP POPS HERE JUST ENOUGH TO GET
A SLIGHT CHANCE OF CONVECTION MENTIONED IN THE ZONES. THEN FOR
THURSDAY NIGHT...SEVERAL MODELS WERE SHOWING ANOTHER MCS RACING
EASTWARD ACROSS THE MID SOUTH AND TENNESSEE VALLEY REGIONS. AS A
RESULT...I INCREASED POPS IN THE NORTH TO REFLECT THIS. /19/
LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY...THE OVERALL PATTERN AND
WHAT THE LATEST FORECAST GUID SUGGESTS IS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT THAN
THE PREV FEW RUNS. MODELS DON'T REALLY INDICATE MUCH OF A
DISTURBANCE MOVING ACROSS THE AREA...BUT I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED TO
SEE SOME CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY SET UP ACROSS THE NORTH AND SUPPORT
STORMS. THERE APPEARS TO BE A BETTER WAVE FOR SAT AND THAT WOULD
HELP WITH THE STORM CHANCES AND HELP PUSH A WEAK FRONT INTO THE CWA.
AS HAS BEEN THE CASE...TIMING THESE FEATURES REMAINS VERY DIFFICULT
AND MESO-SCALE FEATURES WILL CARRY A LOT OF WEIGHT ON HOW THINGS
EVOLVE. THE MODELS HAVE BEEN WANTING TO STAY WELL N OF THE AREA
DURING THIS TIME...BUT OBSERVED TRENDS OF LATE HAVE PROVEN THE
MODELS WRONG AND ACTIVITY HAS OCCURRED MUCH FURTHER SOUTH.
BY EARLY SUN...MODELS HAVE A SFC COOL FRONT DISSECTING THE CWA AND
THIS BOUNDARY LINGERS INTO MON. MOISTURE WILL REMAIN HIGH ALONG AND
S OF THIS FEATURE AND EVEN AS UPPER RIDING DEVELOPS...THERE MAY BE A
WINDOW FOR CONVECTION UNTIL HEIGHTS GET TOO HIGH AND CAPPING TAKES
OVER. THIS RIDGING LOOKS TO DEVELOP BY TUE INTO WED AND THAT SHOULD
PUT AN END TO PRECIP CHANCES AN ALLOW FOR SOME WARM READINGS IN THE
TEMP DEPARTMENT.
AS FOR THE FORECAST ELEMENTS FRI-MON...GUID TEMPS SEEM REASONABLE
AND HAVE FOLLOWED. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE ON FRI AS THE LATEST GUID
HAS REALLY WARMED AND I'M NOT READY TO HIT ON THE 90-92 VALUES JUST
YET. I LOWERED NEARLY ALL AREAS AROUND 2 DEGREES. AS FOR POPS...GUID
SEEMED A TAD TOO LOW FRI-FRI NIGHT AND HAVE STAYED WITH OUR PREV
FORECAST. AS FOR SAT-WED...GUID SEEMED TO COVER THINGS WELL WITH THE
SFC FRONT LINGERING...THEN DRY THINGS OUT BY TUE-WED. OVERALL...POPS
WILL RANGE FROM 20-40% WITH THE N HALF HAVING THE MAIN SHOT AT
PRECIP FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE EXTENDED. /CME/
&&
.AVIATION...A CLUSTER OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAS BEEN MOVING
THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA THIS MORNING...AND MORE COMPLEXES ARE
EXPECTED TO PASS THROUGH THE AREA THROUGH THE DAY. AS A RESULT...THE
AREA IS SEEING MVFR FLIGHT CATEGORIES MAINLY DUE TO LOW CEILINGS
AROUND THE AREA. LOCATIONS THAT SEE THUNDERSTORMS PASS OVER THEM
WILL SEE PERIODS OF IFR TO POSSIBLY LIFR FLIGHT CATEGORIES DUE TO
LOWER CEILINGS AND HEAVY RAIN AS THE THUNDERSTORMS PASS BY. AS
MENTIONED BEFORE...THIS WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE CASE THROUGH MUCH OF
THE DAY AS A COUPLE OF STORM COMPLEXES MAKE THEIR WAY ACROSS THE
REGION TODAY. MOST OF THE ACTIVITY SHOULD BE EAST AND OUT OF THE
AREA BY 06Z TONIGHT. FOG AND LOW STRATUS DEVELOPMENT WILL BE
POSSIBLE ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA BY EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...WHICH
COULD AGAIN RESULT IN MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS. /14/
