AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
412 PM CST WED JAN 20 2010

...SEVERE STORMS AND FLASH FLOOD RISKS STARTING TO MATERIALIZE FOR
FOR THE OVERNIGHT...

.DISCUSSION...REFER TO LATEST SPC WW. A VERY DISTINCT AND NEGATIVELY
TILTED MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE ROTATING EWD INTO CENTRAL TX AND HELPING
TO ADD UVV TO THE MIX OF ADEQUATE INSTABILITY(8C 7-500MB LAPSE RATES)
AND SHEAR GETTING ALIGNED ACROSS THE LOWER MS VALLEY. OUR POWERFUL
160KT 200MB JET CORE NOSING THROUGH SRN TX TOWARD THE GULF COAST AND
WILL ONLY SERVE TO INCREASE DIFFLUENCE ALOFT IN THE LEFT EXIT REGION.
AS A RESULT... EXPECT A RAPID INCREASE IN SHRA/TSRA COVERAGE THROUGH
THE EVENING HOURS WITH THE MOST INTENSE CELLS REGENERATING OVER THE
SWRN CWFA AND MOVING NEWD. WHILE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL LIKELY JUST
ABOUT EVERYWHERE...AM KEEPING THE FFA IN PLACE WHERE ANTECEDENT
CONDITIONS MOST RIPE FOR FLASH FLOODING. SOME LOCALIZED FFW EASILY
POSSIBLE OUTSIDE THE BOX HOWEVER. WHILE QPF MAY BE INDICATING A
LITTLE LOWER THAN PREVIOUS FORECASTS...IT STILL LOOKS LIKE AN AREA
ACROSS CENTRAL MS/NERN LA COULD GET UP TO 5 INCHES OF RAINFALL WITH
THIS EVENT... IN LIGHT OF THE 275% NORMAL PWATS AND EFFICIENT
RAINFALL PRODUCTION BEING OBSERVED IN PLACES THIS AFTERNOON.

ALSO IN THE MIX TONIGHT...A DEEPENING SURFACE LOW(999MB) IN NRN TX
THAT IS PROGGED TO CROSS SWRN AR AS 995MB BY 06Z ON LATEST RUC AND
MOVE THROUGH CENTRAL/ERN AR EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. THIS LOW CREATES
A MORE FAVORABLE 0-1KM SHEAR PROFILE OVERNIGHT ACROSS OUR CENTRAL AND
SRN COUNTIES AND SHOULD RESULT IN A FEW NOCTURNAL TORNADOES...NOT THAT
UNCOMMON FOR PAST COOL SEASON SEVERE EPISODES. OUR BEST ESTIMATE
USING THE LOCAL WRF RUNS INDICATES BEST COMBINATION OF SHEAR/INSTABILITY
FOR AN AXIS FROM PORT GIBSON TO RALEIGH TO MERIDIAN SWD ABOUT 00-07Z.

THEN...A DRY MID LEVEL PUNCH(50KTS AT 700MB) ARRIVES FROM THE W LATE
TONIGHT RIGHT ALONG I-20 BRINGING A SHARP END TO THE CONVECTION AS
THE UPPER JET SHIFTS OVERHEAD AND PUSHES BEST DIVERGENT ZONE INTO AL.
A MODERATELY STRONG WLY LOW LEVEL FLOW SHOULD PROVIDE A DECENT DAY
THURSDAY WITH SKIES BECOMING PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY BEFORE MIDDAY.
SOMEWHAT COOLER AIR SETTLES IN FOR THURSDAY NIGHT WITH DIMINISHING
WINDS AND CONTINUED DRYING OUT. HAVE OPTED TO STAY ABOVE MAV MOS FOR
MAX TEMPS AND HAVE TAKEN A BLEND OF MET/MAV FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS
THROUGH FRIDAY./40/

LONGER TERM(FRIDAY THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY)...A WEAK MID-UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE BUILDS EAST ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY FOR
FRIDAY AHEAD OF LARGER AND MORE SUBSTANTIAL LONGWAVE TROUGH MOVING
INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS FOR THE WEEKEND. OUR RAIN CHANCES WILL BEGIN
TO INCREASE SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THIS UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL SEND
SEVERAL DISTURBANCES ROTATING EAST AND ENCOMPASSING MUCH OF THE
MS VALLEY SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY. THIS TROUGH WILL FORCE A SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM TO SHIFT EAST NORTHEAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND
UP TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES REGION...WHILE DRAGGING A COLD FRONT INTO
AND THROUGH OUR CWFA SATURDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL BRING SHOWERS...ALONG
WITH SOME THUNDERSTORMS...BACK INTO THE FORECAST AREA DURING THIS
TIME. MODELS DO CONTINUE TO INDICATE LIMITED INSTABILITY BUT STRONG
DEEP LAYER WIND SHEAR...70-90 KNOTS OF 0-6KM...ALONG AND AHEAD OF
THIS SYSTEM SATURDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. BECAUSE OF THIS
I'LL CONTINUE TO MENTION THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS OVER THE FORECAST AREA IN THE HWO.

RAIN WILL MOVE OUT OF THE FORECAST AREA FROM WEST TO EAST SUNDAY
AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH CLOUDS GRADUALLY FOLLOWING SUITE.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD EAST INTO THE REGION MONDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY.  A MUCH COOLER DRIER AIRMASS WILL FILTER INTO AND SETTLE
OVER THE FORECAST AREA DURING THIS TIME...RESULTING IN A RETURN TO
MORE TYPICAL MID-JANUARY-LIKE CONDITIONS OVER THE ARKLAMISS REGION
THROUGH MID-WEEK. /19/

&&

.AVIATION...SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ACROSS THE HIGHWAY 84
CORRIDOR WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE EVENING AND EXPAND OVERNIGHT.
SEVERAL ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE THROUGH AND AFFECT ALL TAF
SITES. CEILINGS WILL BE REDUCED AND VISIBILITY LIKELY AS WELL IN
HEAVIER DOWNPOURS WITH WIDESPREAD IFR TO LOCAL LIFR CATEGORIES
EXPECTED. MANY OF THE STORMS WILL HAVE GUSTY WINDS...HAIL AND HEAVY
DOWNPOURS WITH THEM TONIGHT. OVERALL...NOT A GOOD NIGHT TIME FOR
FLYING. CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE TO VFR ON THURSDAY AS DRIER AIR
MOVES INTO THE REGION WITH VFR PREVAILING THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING./28/
