The radar

The Jackson/Brandon,MS radar (KDGX), 93 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 22:26 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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

Jackson, MS (KJAN), launched 12:00Z, 10.4 hours before the alert went out and 90 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.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jul 16, 3:45 PM CDT, 1 hour 39 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 16, 3:45 PM CDT, 1 hour 39 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
345 PM CDT FRI JUL 16 2010

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ONGOING ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN
MISSISSIPPI. A FEW STORMS HAVE BECOME STRONG TO SEVERE GIVEN COOLER
TEMPS ALOFT COMPARED TO PREVIOUS DAYS ALONG WITH DCAPE VALUES
GREATER THAN 1000 J/KG. THIS IS BEING SPAWNED AS THE UPPER RIDGE
THAT HAS BEEN GRIPPING OUR REGION FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS HAS MOVED
OFF TO THE WEST ALLOWING A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO SAG SOUTH ALONG
WITH AN INVERTED TROUGH MOVING WEST ACROSS THE SOUTH/NORTHERN GULF...AND
UPPER TROUGH MOVING EAST FURTHER NORTH. WITH PW VALUES IN EXCESS OF
2.1 INCHES BASED ON BLENDED TPW SATELLITE IMAGERY...ASCENT FROM
THESE FEATURES AND THE COOLER TEMPS ALOFT...HAVE BEEN ENOUGH TO
PRODUCE THESE STORMS. TEMPERATURES HAVE REMAINED WARM TODAY WITH A
CONTINUED INCREASE IN MOISTURE...ALLOWING HEAT INDICES TO REACH 100
TO 105 OUTSIDE OF THE ADVISORY AREA...AND UP TO 109 IN THE ADVISORY
AREA. HOWEVER...THE HEAT OUTSIDE OF THE DELTA SHOULD BE SUBSIDING
WITH CONVECTION AND INCREASED CLOUD COVER. WHILE OVERNIGHT LOWS
TONIGHT WILL LIKELY REMAIN ELEVATED...HEAT STRESS WILL BE ALLEVIATED
INTO THE WEEKEND AND THUS THE HEAT ADVISORY WILL BE ALLOWED TO
EXPIRE AT 7PM. HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL NOT BE AS MUCH OF AN ISSUE
TOMORROW WITH HIGHER CONVECTIVE CHANCES.

EXPECT THAT MOST OF THE CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH TONIGHT WITH THE
LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. HOWEVER...WITH THE PROXIMITY OF THE WEAK
BOUNDARY/TROUGH THERE COULD BE JUST ENOUGH LIFT TO CONTRIBUTE TO A
FEW SHOWERS/STORMS OVERNIGHT MAINLY IN THE NORTH/NORTHEAST. THIS IS
ALSO CONFIRMED BY 12Z LOCAL WRF GUIDANCE. HAVE LEFT IN CHANCE/SLIGHT
CHANCE IN FOR THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

TOMORROW AND SUNDAY SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO THIS AFTERNOON WITH A GOOD
COVERAGE OF STORMS ACROSS THE AREA GIVEN WE SHOULD BE ON THE EASTERN
SIDE OF THE TROPICAL WAVE/A LINGERING SFC BOUNDARY/SHEAR AXIS AND
PLENTY OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE IN PLACE WITH MODEL PW VALUES OF 2 TO
2.5 INCHES. THE BEST COVERAGE OF STORMS WILL BE ALONG AND SOUTHEAST
OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE BUT AREAS IN THE DELTA SHOULD SEE MORE STORMS
THAN TODAY WITH THE RIDGE PUSHED FURTHER TO THE WEST. MOST OF THE
ACTIVITY SHOULD DIMINISH AFTER SUNSET BUT MAY LINGER UNTIL MIDNIGHT.
STRONG TO SVR STORM POTENTIAL WILL BE MONITORED DAILY GIVEN HOW MUCH
CONVECTION LINGERS OVERNIGHT...HOW MUCH INSOLATION/WARMING WE CAN
GET DURING THE MORNING/AFTERNOON. MODEL LAPSE RATES NOT TOO
IMPRESSIVE AND ENOUGH DEEP LAYER MOISTURE SHOULD PRECLUDE DRIER AIR
ALOFT AND HIGH DCAPE VALUES. ON THE OTHER HAND...GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF
MOISTURE AND LIGHT FLOW...STORM MOTIONS MAY BE SLOW ENOUGH TO BRING
LOCALIZED FLOODING/FLASH FLOODING THREAT FOR AT LEAST SATURDAY.

MOS NUMBERS GENERALLY ACCEPTED. THE GFS LOOKS TO BE SUFFERING ONCE
AGAIN WITH GRIDSCALE FEEDBACK ISSUES BUT FEEL THAT HIGH ADVERTISED
POPS STILL SEEM PLAUSIBLE. HIGH TEMPS WILL MODERATE THROUGH THE
PERIOD WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 90S AND OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE MID 70S
WITH MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES. /28/

.LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE IS
FORECAST BY ALL MODEL GUIDANCE TO REBUILD OVER THE ARKLAMISS AS WE
GO THROUGH NEXT WEEK...RESULTING IN A DECREASE IN DIURNAL SHOWER/TSTM
ACTIVITY AND AN INCREASE IN HEAT STRESS. AN ABUNDANCE OF DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE (PRECIPITABLE WATER > 2 INCHES) WILL BE IN PLACE FOR MONDAY
RESULTING IN ISOLATED TO SCATTERED DIURNAL SHOWER/TSTM
ACTIVITY...ESPECIALLY SOUTHEAST HALF. THE ATMOSPHERE WILL DRY OUT
TUESDAY BUT ANOTHER TROPICAL WAVE MOVING WWD ACROSS THE GULF SHOULD
TEMPORARILY REPLENISH THE MOISTURE AT LEAST OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF
THE FORECAST AREA. THE GFS IS MORE AGGRESSIVE THAN OTHER GLOBAL
MODELS WITH THE LOWERING OF MID LEVEL HEIGHTS IN RESPONSE TO THIS
WAVE...AND HAVE OPTED TO CUT BACK A LITTLE ON THE HIGHER GFS MOS POPS
FOR WED/WED NIGHT. ONCE THIS WAVE PUSHES WEST OF THE AREA...THE RIDGE
WILL INTENSIFY MORE QUICKLY AND WE EXPECT A RETURN TO VERY HOT
CONDITIONS FOR LATE NEXT WEEK WITH LITTLE IN THE WAY OF CONVECTIVE
PRECIPITATION EXPECTED. HAVE RAISED GFS MOS TEMPERATURES FOR THURSDAY
AND CUT POPS A BIT TO BETTER REFLECT THE EXPECTED PATTERN. /EC/

&&

.AVIATION...A BOUNDARY SAGGING SOUTH IN THE NORTH AND A WAVE MOVING
ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF WERE ENHANCING CONVECTION THIS AFTN IN THE
EAST. ALL TAF SITES EXCEPT GLH HAVE BEEN AFFECTED THUS FAR...BUT
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY WILL LAST INTO THIS EVENING. MOST OF THE
ACTIVITY WILL HAVE DISSIPATED BY 04Z. OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORM AREAS
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH TONIGHT. MODELS ARE STILL
INDICATING POTENTIAL FOR STRATUS/PATCHY FOG OVER THE EASTERN HALF
AFTER 09Z. CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE BY 15Z BUT COVERAGE OF STORMS
SATURDAY WILL BE GREATER AND MAY INITIATE EARLIER. /22/
