AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1034 PM CDT TUE MAR 29 2011

.UPDATE...UPDATED FORECAST TO REFLECT LATEST WATCHES. LATEST TORNADO
WATCHES GENERALLY COVER SCTRL/SERN ZONES THROUGH EARLY WED MORNING
WITH SEVERE WATCHES IN EFFECT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST
AREA. THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR CENTRAL AND SRN MS
ZONES. CURRENT EXPECTATIONS ARE THAT THE WARM FRONT WILL PIVOT INTO
THE AREA FROM THE SE TO MAINTAIN THE TORNADO RISK OVER MUCH OF OUR
SRN AREA. THE SW CORNER OF THE FORECAST AREA HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN
THE SEVERE TSTMS WATCH AS THESE STORMS WILL LIKELY REMAIN ELEVATED
IN THE COLDER SURFACE AIR JUST TO THE REAR OF THE FRONT. SW ZONES
WILL BE MONITORED HOWEVER AS WAVING ALONG THE BOUNDARY MAY ALLOW THE
FRONT TO ADVANCE FARTHER N INTO THESE AREAS.

&&

.DISCUSSION...WIDESPREAD CONVECTION IS ONGOING ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA THIS EVENING AS A SERIES OF SUBTLE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
SHIFT EAST ACROSS THE CWA...AHEAD OF A STRONGER SHORTWAVE ALSO
WORKING ITS WAY EAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND INTO THE
MID-MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY.  THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING
AND INTO TONIGHT...THESE DISTURBANCES...COUPLED WITH A FAIRLY MOIST
AIRMASS...MODEST DEEP WIND SHEAR...ELEVATED INSTABILITY...AND STEEP
LAPSE RATES ALL AIDED IN THE CONTINUATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA.  THE PRIMARY
HAZARD WITH STORMS THAT DEVELOP WILL BE LARGE HAIL...WITH DAMAGING
WINDS BEING A SECONDARY CONCERN.  ALSO...THE POTENTIAL FOR A TORNADO
OR TWO AT THE MOMENT CAN'T BE RULED OUT ACROSS MY SOUTH GIVEN
CONVECTION THERE COULD BECOME ROOTED AT THE SURFACE AS A WARM FRONT
SITS VERY NEAR THAT AREA.

THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY DOWNPOURS LEADING TO FLASH FLOODING IS ALSO
POSSIBLE...AND IS OCCURRING IN SOME LOCATIONS.  1-3 INCHES OF RAIN
IS CURRENTLY FALLING WITH A GOOD BIT OF THIS CONVECTION.  GIVEN HOW
DEEPLY MOIST OUR AIRMASS CURRENTLY IS...THE EXPECTED REDEVELOPMENT
OF CONVECTION THROUGH THE NIGHT UNTIL THE COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH
EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING...AND THAT TRAINING OF STORMS IS
OCCURRING...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 AM
WEDNESDAY AND HAS BEEN EXTENDED FURTHER NORTH.

GRIDS AND ZONES ARE SHIPPING. /19/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 430 PM CDT TUE MAR 29 2011/

..HEAVY RAINS RETURNING TO SOUTH MISSISSIPPI TONIGHT ALONG WITH THE
CHANCE OF A FEW SEVERE STORMS...

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...OVERALL COOLER THAN
NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE SHORT TERM
WITH A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES BRINGING CHANCES OF RAIN...GREATEST RAIN
CHANCES WILL OCCUR TONIGHT ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE
STORMS.

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY/RUC ANALYSIS SHOWS A NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE
OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND A COUPLE SUBTLE SOUTHERN STREAM SHORT
WAVES EMANATING OUT OF THE BAJA REGION ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS.
THESE FEATURES WILL MOVE OVER OUR REGION TONIGHT AND COMBINE WITH A
WARM FRONT TRYING TO LIFT NORTH FROM THE GULF COAST FOR A ROUND OF
POTENTIALLY SEVERE STORMS AND HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS OUR AREA SOUTH
OF INTERSTATE 20...WHILE A FEW ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH QUARTER
SIZE HAIL STILL POSSIBLE NORTH OF INTERSTATE 20. THERE STILL REMAINS
CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY IN THE MODELS AS TO HOW FAR NORTH THE WARM
FRONT WILL GET AS WELL AS PLACEMENT OF PCPN MAXES. THE MORNING JAN
SOUNDING SHOWED A DECENT CAP AND WITH THE EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER THE
WARM UP TODAY HAS BEEN SLOW. SURFACE ANALYSIS STILL HAS THE WARM
FRONT WITH MID 60 DEW POINTS SOUTH OF OUR CWA AT MID AFTERNOON NEAR
THE INTERSTATE 10 CORRIDOR. REGIONAL RADARS WERE STARTING TO SHOW
CONVECTION FIRING ALONG THE WARM FRONT AND THIS ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED
TO SLOWLY MOVE NORTH INTO OUR SOUTHERN ZONES. A TORNADO WATCH HAS
BEEN ISSUED FOR PORTIONS OF OUR AREA SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20 UNTIL 10
PM. AS WE GET INTO THE EVENING THE NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE IS
EXPECTED TO HELP CONVECTION INCREASE ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF
OUR AREA WHILE ACTIVITY INCREASES ACROSS THE SOUTH ESPECIALLY IN
VICINITY OF THE WARM FRONT. A SURFACE LOW IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP
THIS EVENING OVER SOUTHERN LOUISIANA AND MOVE TO THE EAST NORTHEAST
ACROSS OUR CWA EVENTUALLY DRAGGING A COLD FRONT EAST OF OUR CWA BY
NOON MONDAY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS OUR
SOUTH TONIGHT. THE ECMWF HAS CONSISTENTLY POINTED TO AN AREA JUST
SOUTH OF OUR CWA BUT OTHER MODELS SUGGEST THE POTENTIAL FOR TWO TO
FOUR INCHES IN A SHORT TIME FARTHER NORTH ACROSS OUR SOUTHEAST. WE
WL CONTINUE OUR FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR TONIGHT ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST.
BY WEDNESDAY MORNING THE COLD FRONT WILL BE PUSHING EAST OF THE AREA
AND THE RAINFALL WILL BE TAPERING OFF. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD BACK INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTH. COOLER THAN NORMAL
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED. ANOTHER NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE WILL
SWING ACROSS OUR CWA WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND BRING A CHANCE OF LIGHT
RAIN. THE CHANCE FOR RAIN WILL END BY THURSDAY MORNING BUT YET
ANOTHER NORTHERN STREAM DISTURBANCE WILL BRING A CHANCE OF RAIN TO
THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA BY THURSDAY NIGHT. /22/

LONG TERM...THE FORECAST FOR THIS WEEKEND REMAINS QUITE UNCERTAIN
WITH A MULTITUDE OF SOLUTIONS AVAILABLE FROM THE GFS/ECMWF/GEM.
LEAST CONFIDENCE WAS IN THE GEM WHICH SHOWS ANOTHER COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE EARLY SATURDAY...WHILE THE GFS AND ECMWF KEEP DRY CONDITIONS
IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THE DIFFERENCES IN THE GFS AND
ECMWF REALLY ONLY HAVE AN IMPACT ON TEMPERATURES THIS WEEKEND SINCE
BOTH MODELS ADVERTISE PERSISTENT DRY CONDITIONS. THE ECMWF STALLS
THE AFOREMENTIONED COOL FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS
SATURDAY BEFORE WAVING IT BACK TO THE NORTH ON SUNDAY AS A WARM
FRONT...WHILE THE GFS PUSHES THE BOUNDARY FURTHER SOUTH INTO THE
NORTHERN GULF. THE DIFFERENCE IS NOT HUGE HOWEVER THE ECMWF SOLUTION
WOULD TEND TO WARMER TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE SOUTH FOR SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY...ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR LOW END POPS IN VICINITY OF
THE BOUNDARY. FOR NOW WILL OMIT MENTION OF ANY PRECIP CHANCES...BUT
WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES A BIT WARMER OUT OF RESPECT FOR THE BETTER
PERFORMING ECMWF IN THE LONGER RANGE.

DESPITE THE DIFFERENCES IN THE LONG RANGE GUIDANCE SUITE FOR THE
WEEKEND...ALL THE MODELS INDICATE PROGRESSION TO A MEAN TROUGH
BECOMING ESTABLISHED TO OUR WEST BY MONDAY MORNING. SIGNIFICANT
MOISTURE RETURN IS PROGGED TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM...WITH
THE ECMWF INDICATING LOWER 70S DEW POINTS BEING PULLED NORTH ACROSS
THE ARKLAMISS AHEAD OF EVENTUAL COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE MON OR TUE. THIS
WILL DEFINITELY BE OUR NEXT CHANCE AT SEVERE WEATHER/LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL AND WILL INTRODUCE THIS POTENTIAL IN THE HWO/GRAPHICS. /BK/

&&

.AVIATION...
MOSTLY MVFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION
THROUGH THIS EVENING DUE TO LOW CEILINGS. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL INCREASE FROM ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS
AND INTO THE EARLY MORNING...DEGRADING FLIGHT CATS LOCALLY DOWN TO
IFR WHEN THE STORMS ARRIVE. SOME OF THE STORMS COULD BE QUITE STRONG
AND CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HAIL AND EXTREME TURBULENCE. EXPECT MOST OF
THE SIGNIFICANT PRECIP TO BE EXITING THE REGION TO THE EAST BY
DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY...ALTHOUGH LOW CLOUDS AND SOME FOG (MAINLY IFR)
WILL BE SLOW TO CLEAR OFF AFTER THE SUN COMES UP. ANTICIPATED LIGHT
TO MODERATE SURFACE EAST TO SOUTHEAST WINDS THROUGH TONIGHT TO
TRANSITION AROUND THE NORTHWEST BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. /BB/
