BYBWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 13, 4:20 PM CDT, 1 hour 22 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 13, 4:20 PM CDT, 1 hour 22 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 420 PM CDT FRI MAY 13 2011 .SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY/RUC ANALYSIS SHOWS THE CLOSED LOW SPINNING OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI WITH PLENTY OF DRY AIR ALOFT NOTED WRAPPING AROUND THE LOW AND INTO THE WESTERN HALF OF OUR CWA. THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW WAS NOTED OVER ILLINOIS WITH THE TRAILING COLD FRONT STRETCHING SOUTH NEAR THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. LITTLE OR NO PCPN WAS NOTED ON LOCAL RADARS WEST OF INTERSTATE 55 SO HAVE CANCELLED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND ITS BACK WATER AREAS. AHEAD OF THE FRONT OVER EASTERN MISSISSIPPI SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WERE OCCURRING. THERE IS STILL THE POTENTIAL FOR A SEVERE STORM OR TWO TO DEVELOP WITH QUARTER SIZE HAIL BEING THE MAIN THREAT. A GUST TO 60 MPH CANNOT BE RULED OUT. THE MOST FAVORABLE AREA FOR DEVELOPMENT IS OVER OUR NORTHEAST ZONES WHERE A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH WAS IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING. THIS ACTIVITY WILL SHIFT EAST DURING THE EVENING. AS THE CLOSE LOW MOVES EAST OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY TONIGHT A LAYER OF STRATOCU IS PROGGED TO DROP SOUTH ACROSS OUR NORTHERN TIER ZONES BUT NO SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED. COOLER AND DRIER WEATHER WILL BE THE RULE FOR THE SHORT TERM FROM TONIGHT ON. THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE SOUTHEAST OF OUR CWA BY MORNING WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 50S ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA. SATURDAY THE CLOSED LOW WILL LIFT NORTHEAST OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WITH NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT REMAINING OVER OUR REGION. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD SOUTH INTO OUR REGION FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS AS WELL. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE NORTHEAST DECENT INSOLATION IS EXPECTED. THIS WILL ALLOW SITES TO CLIMB INTO THE MID TO UPPER 70S WHILE OUR NORTHERN ZONES MAKE IT ONLY INTO THE LOWER 70S. THESE COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL COMBINE WITH A NORTH WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY RESULTING IN A FINE SPRING DAY. SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT THE CLOSED LOW WILL STILL BE SPINNING NEAR THE OHIO VALLEY WHEN A POTENT SHORTWAVE DROPS DOWN THE BACK SIDE INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS SUNDAY AND ACROSS OUR CWA SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL BRING A REINFORCING SHOT OF COOL DRY AIR INTO OUR REGION. AFTERNOON HIGH SUNDAY SHOULD TOP OUT A COUPLE DEGREES COOLER THAN ON SATURDAY. SUNDAY NIGHT TEMPERATURES WILL DIP BACK INTO THE UPPER 40S ACROSS MUCH OF EAST MISSISSIPPI. GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES WERE CLOSE THROUGH THE PERIOD AND MAV WAS GENERALLY ACCEPTED. GUIDANCE POPS WERE CUT FROM THE WEST TONIGHT AND IN THE NORTHEAST SATURDAY. /22/ .LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...BY MONDAY...STRONGER CAA TAKES PLACE WITH H85 TEMPS DROPPING DOWN BETWEEN 2 TO 4 DEGREES UNDER STRONGER NORTH LOW-LVL FLOW AS ANOTHER MID-LEVEL WAVE ROTATES ACROSS THE MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. WITH SOME AREAS RECEIVING LIMITED INSOLATION GIVEN CONTINUED STRATOCUMULUS DECK...SOME LOCATIONS MAY NOT MAKE IT OUT OF THE 70S EXCEPT FOR SOME SOUTHERN LOCATIONS ACROSS THE 84 CORRIDOR. HIGHS MONDAY WILL BE SOME 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMALS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. LOW TEMPERATURES INTO TUESDAY MORNING COULD FALL INTO THE UPPER 40S ACROSS NORTHERN AND EASTERN AREAS AS CLOUDS BEGIN TO EXIT THE REGION. TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...MODEL SOLUTIONS BEGIN TO DIVERGE BUT SHOW ENOUGH AGREEMENT/CONTINUITY THAT SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE APPEARS TO NOSE IN ACROSS THE SOUTH-CENTRAL PLAINS AND THE SOUTHEAST. TEMPERATURES WILL BE QUITE COMFORTABLE WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S AND LOWS IN THE MID 50S AFTER REDUCING MEX GUIDANCE AND USING LOW END MENMOS VALUES GIVEN DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 40S. THE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL LEAD TO A SLOWLY MODIFYING AND WARMING AIRMASS TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK. RETURN FLOW COULD HAPPEN AS EARLY AS THURSDAY WITH DEWPOINTS CLIMBING BACK UP IN TO THE LOW 60S ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN AREAS OF THE CWA. BY THE END OF THE WEEK(FRIDAY)...THE OPS GFS IS MUCH MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN THE ECMWF IN RESOLVING A POTENT SHORTWAVE ACROSS THE DESERT SOUTHWEST INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS THAT ALLOWS FOR SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS AND POTENTIALLY THE NEXT BIG CHANCE OF RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS INTO NEXT WEEKEND. ON THE FLIP SIDE...THE ECMWF IS DEPICTING THE POTENT MID-LVL TROUGHING MUCH FARTHER WEST ACROSS THE GREAT BASIN GIVEN THAT IT HAS RESOLVED THE EASTERN CONUS CUT-OFF LOW FARTHER SOUTH AND SLIGHTLY DEEPER...THUS POSSIBLY CREATING MORE MID- TO UPPER-LVL BLOCKING AND THUS NOT AS PROGRESSIVE AS OPS GFS. HAVE OPTED TO PLAY THE MIDDLE ROAD AT THIS STAGE AND REDUCED MEX POPS FOR FRIDAY GIVEN GFS BIASED NATURE OF BEING TOO PROGRESSIVE./ALLEN/ && .AVIATION...ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.
