ACTIVE WEATHER DAY IN STORE FOR THE MID-SOUTH WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. UPDATED TO MAKE A FEW MINOR CHANGES BUT EARLIER FORECAST STILL ON TRACK. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WAS CENTERED ALONG THE NORTHWESTERN GULF THIS MORNING WITH THE MID-SOUTH ON THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF THIS RIDGE. UPPER LEVEL HEIGHTS WERE SLOWLY INCREASING WHICH WILL MAY HELP TO SUPPRESS CONVECTION A LITTLE OVER PORTIONS OF EAST-CENTRAL AR AND NORTHWEST MS. LOCATIONS SUCH AS CLARKSDALE MS WILL HAVE THE LEAST CHANCE FOR RAIN. OTHERWISE...A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WILL COMBINE WITH SEVERAL FEATURES TO CAUSE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS. SURFACE BASED CAPES ARE FORECAST TO CLIMB TO BETWEEN 4000 AND 5000 J/KG WITH LIFTED INCITES AROUND MINUS 9 ACROSS MUCH OF THE MID-SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON. SATELLITE SHOWS AN MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE VORTEX FROM EARLIER CONVECTION LOCATED OVER EASTERN AR. THIS FEATURE WILL MOVE INTO NORTHEAST AR...THE MO BOOTHEEL...AND WEST TN THIS AFTERNOON. MEANWHILE...A SURFACE BOUNDARY STRETCHED FROM NORTHEAST AR ACROSS SOUTHWEST TN THIS MORNING. THIS BOUNDARY WILL LIFT NORTHEASTWARD AS A WARM FRONT TODAY. MEANWHILE...CONVECTION HAS ALREADY FIRED ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST TN WHICH IS MOVING TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST.

JCL PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 346 AM CDT MON JUN 15 2009/ SHORT RANGE...TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS WERE MOVING ACROSS NORTHERN ARKANSAS EARLY THIS MORNING...MOVING INTO WEST TENNESSEE AND THE MISSOURI BOOTHEEL. A STATIONARY FRONT WAS DRAPED ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN MISSOURI TO SOUTHWESTERN KENTUCKY. SOUTH OF THE FRONT TEMPERATURES RANGED FROM THE UPPER 60S TO MID 70S AND DEWPOINTS FROM THE MID 60S TO LOWER 70S. WINDS WERE GENERALLY LIGHT AND VARIABLE. THUNDERSTORMS OVER WEST-CENTRAL MISSOURI SHOWING SIGNS OF INCREASING OVER THE PAST HOUR. A DEVELOPING MCV OVER CENTRAL OKLAHOMA IS TREKKING EASTWARD. THE STORMS/DISTURBANCE MENTIONED ABOVE WILL RIDE ALONG THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST PERIPHERY OF THE MID LEVEL HIGH CENTERED OVER SOUTH TEXAS. THUS STEERING FLOW WOULD BRING THESE FEATURES INTO OUR AREA BY THIS AFTERNOON. MODELS INDICATE BEST INSTABILITY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT. BOTH THE NAM AND GFS AGREE THAT CAPES IN EXCESS OF 3500 J/KG AND LI/S OF AT LEAST -6 C WILL OCCUR BY EARLY AFTERNOON OVER THE MID SOUTH. THUS SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS DEFINITELY POSSIBLE WITH DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH AND LARGE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS. BY TONIGHT...THE MID LEVEL HIGH BUILDS A LITTLE FARTHER EAST. THIS SHOULD AID IN PUSHING ACTIVITY FARTHER NORTH. THUS HIGHER RAIN CHANCES WILL OCCUR OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH TUESDAY. SOME SEVERE WEATHER IS ALSO NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY OVER THIS AREA.
