AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
750 PM CDT SAT MAY 1 2010

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AND HEAVY RAIN RISK CONTINUES FOR PORTIONS OF
THE REGION THROUGH SUNDAY...

.UPDATE...TREND OF VIGOROUS SEVERE CONVECTION BEING TIED TO FRONTAL
FORCING CONTINUES. MAIN DRIVER OF WEAKER CONVECTION OVER OUR AREA IS
MASSIVE GULF MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND SUBTLE ISENTROPIC LIFT. THIS
LATTER MECHANISM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR BAND OF SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED
STORMS EXTENDING NORTH OVER (AND GENERALLY TRAINING OVER) THE I-55
CORRIDOR. 00Z JAN SOUNDING SHOWS SHEAR HAS GOTTEN QUALITATIVELY MORE
CONDUCIVE FOR ORGANIZED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...BUT TEMPERATURES AT
ROUGHLY 20KT FEET HAVE WARMED TO -5 C. SO...WHILE ML CAPES OVER MOST
OF THE AREA STILL REMAIN AT LEAST 1000 J/KG THESE RELATIVELY WARM
MID LEVEL TEMPS WILL PROBABLY KEEP SEVERE THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE
ISOLATED ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA THROUGH THE EVENING.

BUT THE STORY IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT TO OUR NORTHWEST (AND ACROSS THE
CWA'S VERY NORTHWEST PERIPHERY). HERE...MID LEVEL TEMPS ARE SOME 4
TO 5 C COLDER AND THE PROXIMITY OF BETTER LOW LEVEL FORCING (DUE TO
A LOW SPINNING UP OVER THE ARKLATEX) HAS RESULTED IN ZONE OF HIGH
SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL. THUS FAR THE STORMS IN THIS ZONE HAVE
REMAINED NORTHWEST OF THE ARKLAMISS AND APPEAR TO CONTINUE REMAINING
OUT OF THE AREA THROUGH AT LEAST THE NEXT 2 TO 3 HOURS. BUT WE ARE
EXPECTING THE STATUS QUO TO CHANGE OVERNIGHT AS THE MENTIONED
DEVELOPING LOW IN THE ARKLATEX SHIFTS NORTH AND BEGINS TO DRAG A
COLD FRONT SLOWLY INTO THE FAR WESTERN CWA BY DAYBREAK. FORCING
FOUND ALONG THE FRONT GIVES CONFIDENCE OF A GREATER COVERAGE OF
THUNDERSTORMS IN WESTERN ZONES LATE TONIGHT. SEVERE WEATHER
POTENTIAL WILL CONTINUE AS WELL...BUT IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE AS HIGH
AS WHAT IS BEING REALIZED RIGHT NOW OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN
ARKANSAS.

I HAVE UPDATED TO FORECAST TO TRY TO CATCH CONVECTIVE TRENDS BETTER
THROUGH THE REST OF THE NIGHT. THE GOING FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR AREAS
ALONG AND NORTH OF A BASTROP...TO YAZOO CITY...TO COLUMBUS LINE
LOOKS ADEQUATE CONSIDERING EXPECTATIONS AND ANTECEDENT RAINFALL. I
WILL ALSO UPDATE HWO...ZONES AND GRIDS TO CONCENTRATE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL LATER TONIGHT IN WESTERN ZONES...ALTHOUGH NOT
DISCOUNTING A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER ELSEWHERE THROUGH THE
NIGHT. /BB/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 445 PM CDT SAT MAY 1 2010/

SHORT TERM...SHORTWAVE LIFTING FROM NE TX INTO AR DURING THE LATE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASING UPPER
DIVERGENCE OVER DELTA AREAS AND INCREASING LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE AS
THE SURFACE LOW LIFTS NEWD ACROSS AR. GFS/EURO SUGGEST A SECOND
SMALL WAVE LIFTING INTO NERN AR/NWRN MS AROUND MIDNIGHT. CAPE VALUES
ARE FORECAST TO DECREASE SOMEWHAT TONIGHT BUT WILL REMAIN
SUFFICIENTLY UNSTABLE UNTIL THE FRONT PASSES TO MAINTAIN THE CHANCE
OF HEALTHY CONVECTION. DEEP LAYER SHEAR PERSISTS AND SURFACE
DEWPOINTS WILL REMAIN IN THE 70S. THESE PARAMETERS WILL MAINTAIN THE
RISK OF SEVERE STORMS TONIGHT...PARTICULARLY OVER WRN/NWRN ZONES.

PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL BE HIGH ACROSS THE AREA AND FLOODING
CONCERNS REMAIN. THE 18Z SOUNDING AT JAN SHOWED PWATS AT 2.02
INCHES...ALTHOUGH IT WAS PROBABLY AFFECTED BY UPPER MOISTURE FROM
CONVECTIVE DEBRIS AT THAT TIME. HOWEVER IT DEMONSTRATES THE
POTENTIAL FOR PWATS AOA 2 INCHES FOR THE REGION. CONSIDERED
EXTENDING THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH A BIT FARTHER S OVER WRN ZONES BUT
SRN EXTENT OF CURRENT WATCH LOOKS OK CONSIDERING THE LACK OF RAIN
FATHER S TODAY AND THE FACT THAT BETTER FORCING AND HIGHER CHANCES
OF STRONG CONVECTION AND HEAVY RAIN WILL EXIST OVER OVER NWRN ZONES.
THE RISK OF FLOODING WILL CONTINUE FOR ANY GIVEN AREA UNTIL THE
BOUNDARY CLEARS IT. AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING
RAINFALL OVER ERN ZONES SUNDAY WHEN MODELS ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT
THAT A MOISTURE PLUME WILL SHIFT EWD TOMORROW. THEY ALSO SHOW
INCREASING VERTICAL MOTION/UPPER DIVERGENCE SUNDAY AS WAVES LIFT
INTO THE AREA AND THE SURFACE BOUNDARY EDGES EWD. FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE REMAINS RELATIVELY HIGH SO WILL NOT EXTEND THE FLASH FLOOD
WATCH INTO THE EAST AT THIS TIME. IF LATER FORECASTS INDICATE
STRONGER UPPER FORCING THEN THE WATCH MAY HAVE TO BE ENLARGED.

WEAK WAVES POSSIBLY SWINGING THROUGH WRN ZONES SUNDAY BEFORE
STRONGER FORCING MOVES IN SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY. THE BOUNDARY
EDGES EWD INTO WRN MS/NWRN LA EARLY SUNDAY. THE PROGRESSION OF THE
BOUNDARY WILL BE DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT AS SURFACE WAVES LIFT NWD
ALONG THE FRONT. GFS/EURO IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THAT BOUNDARY WILL
PIVOT NEAR THE NATCHEZ TRACE CORRIDOR LATE SUNDAY AND EXTEND IN THE
GENERAL AREA FROM SRN MS THROUGH ECNTRL ZONES BY MONDAY MORNING
BEFORE DEVELOPING A WARM FRONT ACROSS SRN MS OR FARTHER S MONDAY
NIGHT.

THE MAIN TROUGH IS NOW FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS NE TX MONDAY NIGHT
INTO THE FORECAST AREA TUESDAY BUT MODELS DISAGREE SIGNIFICANTLY ON
TIMING AND STRENGTH OF THE TROUGH WHEN IT CROSSES THE ARKLAMISS. THE
GFS SWINGS A WEAKER OPEN TROUGH THROUGH MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA BY
18Z TUE WHILE THE EURO MAINTAINS A STRONGER CLOSED LOW RIGHT OVER
THE AREA AT 00Z WED.

AS FAR AS MOS GUIDANCE IS CONCERNED...GENERALLY INCREASED POPS
TONIGHT AND SUNDAY...MATCHING CLOSER TO SLIGHTLY HIGHER CURRENT
FORECAST. FOLLOWED WETTER MAV POPS FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT DUE
TO THE UNCERTAINTY OF THE BOUNDARY POSITION AND OUR POSITION EAST OF
THE UPPER TROUGH. ALSO CUT MOS HIGHS A FEW DEGREES OVER WRN ZONES
FOR MONDAY.

LONG TERM...THE MID LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA
BY TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL START A DRY PERIOD THAT WILL LAST
THROUGH THURSDAY. MODELS BRING ANOTHER COLD FRONT SOUTH INTO THE
REGION ON FRIDAY SO WILL CONTINUE THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS LATE IN THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

EXPECT LOWER TO MIDDLE 80S HIGHS THROUGH THE WEEK. SOME GUIDANCE IS
APPROACHING 90 DEGREES MID WEEK BUT WILL NOT GO THAT HIGH FOR NOW.
THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE IN THE WEEK WILL LOWER HIGHS BACK TO
NEAR 80 FOR NEXT WEEKEND./SCW/

&&

.AVIATION...OCCASIONAL CLUSTERS OF SHRA AND TSRA WILL AFFECT ALL TAF
SITES OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. TEMPORARY CIG AND VSBY REDUCTIONS TO
IFR OR LIFR WILL OCCUR IN BRIEF PERIODS OF +SHRA AND +TSRA. SCT
SEVERE TS ARE ALSO EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE HAIL...AND TORNADOES. OTHERWISE...IFR TO MVFR
CIGS AND MVFR VSBYS ARE EXPECTED OUTSIDE OF CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY.
OUTSIDE OF TS ACTIVITY...SOUTHERLY TO SSELY WINDS WILL GUST TO 20-30
KTS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND AGAIN DURING THE DAY SUNDAY.
