Area forecast discussion, Jan 6, 7:17 AM CST, 1 hour 46 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
717 AM CST TUE JAN 6 2009

.UPDATE...BRIEF DENSE FOG ADVISORY ISSUED FOR SECTIONS OF CENTRAL
AND SOUTHWEST MISSISSIPPI AND EAST CENTRAL LOUISIANA. THIS
DEVELOPING IN AREAS NEAR AND JUST SOUTH OF FRONT WHERE PRECIP HAS
BEEN SLOW TO DEVELOP. FOG CLEARING BY MID MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM...HEAVY RAINFALL AND SEVERE STORMS TOP THE WEATHER
CONCERNS TODAY. THE COLD FRONT REMAINS STALLED ACROSS SRN LA AND
SRN/EC MS THIS MORNING. IT IS FORECAST TO LIFT SLIGHTLY NWD WITH
TIME BUT REMAIN EAST OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE. THE FINAL POSITION OF THE
BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON WILL DETERMINE THE DEMARCATION BETWEEN
ISOLATED ELEVATED CONVECTION NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY AND SURFACE
BASED...POTENTIALLY SEVERE...STORMS THAT WILL DEVELOP TO THE SOUTH
OF THE FRONT. A HEALTHY UPPER DISTURBANCE WILL TRACK INTO THE
ARKLAMISS TODAY...ACCOMPANIED BY INCREASING DIVERGENCE ALOFT AND
INTENSIFICATION OF THE LOW LEVEL JET. THE MODELS HAVE BEEN
CONSISTENT IN INCREASING 850 MB FLOW ABOVE 50 KTS THIS AFTERNOON IN
RESPONSE TO INCREASING FLOW ALOFT WITH THE WAVE. SURFACE DEWPOINTS
ARE ALREADY UP TO 66 DEGS AT HBG THIS MORNING AND SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEGUN TO DEVELOP. INSTABILITY WILL BE AT LEAST
MARGINALLY SUFFICIENT AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL RESULT IN THE
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS IN THE WARM SECTOR. PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUES WILL HANG AROUND 1.5 INCHES SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY.
CONSIDERING THAT 1.46 INCHES FROM THE 00Z TUE JAN SOUNDING WAS 250%
OF NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR...HAVE ADDED MENTION OF HEAVY
RAINFALL IN STORMS SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY TODAY. FLOODING POTENTIAL
CONTINUES OVER AREAS NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY...ESPECIALLY FROM THE
LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON PERIODS WHEN THE INCREASING LOW LEVEL JET
RESULTS IN INCREASING ISENTROPIC LIFT ACROSS THE BOUNDARY. RAIN WILL
INCREASE IN COVERAGE BY THE AFTERNOON WHEN THE UPPER DISTURBANCE
LIFTS THROUGH. LOCALIZED FLOODING WAS REPORTED WITH PERIODS OF
HEAVIER RAINFALL LAST NIGHT IN THE NE. THE CHANCE OF THIS OCCURRING
WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE WATCH AREA TODAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE TRICKY TODAY AND MOS NUMBERS...WHICH MATCHED
THE HIGHEST ENSEMBLE MEMBERS...HAVE BEEN LOWERED FOR AREAS NORTH OF
THE FRONT. WITH 38 DEGS REPORTED AT GLH AND 68 REPORTED AT HBG...THE
POSITION OF THE FRONT WILL MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN LOCAL
TEMPERATURES FOR TODAY.

THE BOUNDARY SHIFTS INTO SERN ZONES BY 00Z WED AND THE AIR MASS WILL
STABILIZE IN ITS WAKE TONIGHT. 850 MB FLOW REMAINS SWLY AS THE LONG
WAVE TROUGH APPROACHES THE MS RIVER TONIGHT AND MOS LOOKS ON TRACK
MAINTAINING GOOD RAIN CHANCES FOR THE AREA...ESPECIALLY NRN
ZONES...OVERNIGHT.  THE UPPER TROUGH PIVOTS THROUGH THE FORECAST
AREA EARLY WEDNESDAY...LEAVING DRIER WEATHER AND DECREASING CLOUDS
IN ITS WAKE.

.LONG TERM....WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY...CLEAR AND QUIET
CONDITIONS WILL EXIST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT
THROUGH MOST OF FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY.  THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE
WILL SHIFT EAST OF THE CWA ALLOWING WEAK SOUTHERLY FLOW TO RETURN
AND CLOUDS TO BEGIN INCREASING ACROSS THE REGION AHEAD OF A COLD
FRONT THAT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE NATIONS MID-SECTION DURING THIS
TIME.  AS THE FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA FROM THE WEST FRIDAY
NIGHT...RAIN CHANCES WILL BE ON THE INCREASE FROM THE NORTHWEST TO
SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE DAY SATURDAY.

THE FRONT WILL SLOWLY PUSH SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA
SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY WITH A SLIGHTLY COOLER DRIER AIRMASS FILTERING
SOUTHWARD INTO THE REGION BEHIND THE FRONT SUNDAY.  AFTER THAT...
CONFIDENCE AS TO HOW THINGS WILL PAN OUT THROUGH THE REST OF THE
FIRST PART OF THE WORK WEEK DWINDLES AS BOTH THE GFS AND EUROPEAN
BEGIN TO DIFFER IN THEIR SOLUTIONS.

THE EUROPEAN PROGRESSES THE FRONT COMPLETELY THROUGH THE FORECAST
AREA NEXT MONDAY AND TUESDAY KEEPING THE REGION DRY.  THE GFS ON THE
OTHER HAND WANTS TO STALL THE FRONT OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF OF
MEXICO AND BEGIN LIFTING IT NORTHWARD MONDAY INTO TUESDAY AS AN
UPPER TROUGH SWINGS EAST TOWARD THE REGION.  THIS SOLUTION KEEPS
DECENT RAIN CHANCES OVER THE CWA DURING THIS TIME.

THE GFS ENSEMBLE LOOKS TO MIRROR MORE OF THE EUROPEAN SOLUTION...BUT
GIVEN THAT THIS IS DAY 7 ILL STICK WITH MEX NUMBERS FOR THE TIME
BEING. /19/

&&

.AVIATION...AREAS OF DENSE FOG WILL LOWER VSBYS TO LIFR LEVELS
DURING THE EARLY MORNING. THIS WILL CLEAR BY MID MORNING. IFR/LIFR
CIGS WILL BE WIDESPREAD ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA TODAY. CIGS WILL BE
HIGHER SOUTH OF THE COLD FRONT THAT WILL REMAIN POSITIONED ACROSS
SRN LA/SRN-ECNTRL MS TODAY. RAIN WILL BE WIDESPREAD OVER THE AREA
TODAY WITH SUSTAINED PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL MUCH MORE COMMON
ACROSS AREAS NORTH OF A LINE FROM PORT GIBSON TO JACKSON TO MACON.
SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE SOUTH OF THE FRONT WITH DAMAGING
WINDS BEING THE PRIMARY THREAT BUT LARGE HAIL AND TORNADOES ALSO
POSSIBLE. THE FRONT WILL SHIFT NEAR HBG BY 00Z WED...THE CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS RETREATING WITH IT AS IT DROPS SEWD.
