AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
330 PM CDT FRI JUN 3 2011
.POTENTIALLY RECORD BREAKING HEAT CONTINUES...
.DISCUSSION...ALTHOUGH READINGS THIS MORNING STARTED OUT A LITTLE
COOLER THAN YESTERDAY THIS MORNING...THIS AFTERNOON HAS STILL TURNED
OUT TO BE A HUMID SCORCHER. RIGHT NOW HEAT INDEX VALUES ARE RANGING
FROM 100 TO 106 ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS WITH A RECORD HIGHS SET ALREADY
AT HBG AND GWO. THERE IS ALSO A GOOD CHANCE RECORDS WILL AT LEAST BE
TIED IN THE NEXT HOUR TO AN HOUR AND A HALF AT MEI AND TVR. A FEW
ISOLATED STORMS ARE GETTING GOING ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AL AS
I WRITE...AND HIRES WRF MODELS SUGGEST THIS ACTIVITY MAY LOOSELY
ORGANIZE AND SWEEP INTO SOUTHEAST MS NEAR THE I-59 AND HIGHWAY 98
CORRIDORS IN 2 TO 3 HOURS OR SO. HAVE INCLUDE 10 TO 20 POPS THERE
INTO THIS EVENING AND HIGH MICROBURST POTENTIAL IN THE HOT
ENVIRONMENT WILL MEAN WE WILL BE WATCHING THE STORMS VERY CLOSELY ON
RADAR. EXPECT ISOLATED STORMS IN THE SOUTHEAST TO BE GONE BY 9 TO 10
PM WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS TONIGHT ALLOWING FOR LOWS
RANGING FROM 70 TO 75 DEGREES.
OVER THE WEEKEND THE OVERALL WEATHER SITUATION DOES NOT LOOK TO
CHANGE MUCH...UNFORTUNATELY. THE HOT RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT
WILL BE CENTERED GENERALLY TO OUR NORTHWEST...ALTHOUGH IT WILL
MEANDER A LITTLE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. REGARDLESS OF PRECISE
LOCATION...LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL MOSTLY BE "OFFSHORE" AND THEREFORE
VERY HOT. SOME INTERACTION OF MORE-TYPICAL SEABREEZE RELATED
SOUTHERLY FLOW WORKING INTO THE SOUTHERN ZONES IN THE AFTERNOON WILL
SET UP A CONVERGENCE ZONE AND THE LATTER SHOULD BE A TRIGGER FOR
ISOLATED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT MAINLY SOUTH OF I-20
BOTH AND SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS. AS IS THE CASE
TODAY...THERE WILL BE DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL THROUGH MICROBURST
PROCESSES WITH ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP OVER THE WEEKEND.
OTHERWISE...LOOK FOR TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY LEVELS THROUGH THE
WEEKEND TO BE ON PAR WITH YESTERDAY AND TODAY. FOR THOSE THAT MAY
JUST BE GETTING BACK IN TOWN...THAT MEANS OPPRESSIVE HEAT INDEX
VALUES AND ACTUAL HIGH TEMPERATURES NEAR (OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE) RECORD
LEVELS.
IN CONSIDERATION OF THE CONTINUING HEAT WE HAVE EXTENDED THE HEAT
ADVISORY ALL THE WAY THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WE ARE ACTUALLY
FALLING A LITTLE SHORT OF FULLY MEETING CRITERIA FOR THE ADVISORY IN
TERMS OF LOW TEMPERATURES...BUT IT IS CLOSE AND THE
NEAR-UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL OF THE EARLY HEAT IS TIPPING THE SCALES IN
FAVOR OF GOING WITH THE ADVISORY.
MODEL ENSEMBLES DO OFFER SOME HOPE FOR THE RIDGE SLOWLY BREAKING
DOWN A LITTLE OVER THE COURSE OF NEXT WEEK. THIS WOULD EVENTUALLY
RESULT IN BETTER AND MORE WIDESPREAD RAIN CHANCES AND SOMEWHAT
COOLER TEMPERATURES (ALTHOUGH PROBABLY NO RELATED DECREASE IN
HUMIDITY). BUT...EVEN THOUGH THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE FEATURE DOES SHOW
SOME SIGNS OF WEAKENING IN THE MODELS AS EARLY AS MONDAY...IT MAY
TAKE AT LEAST A FEW DAYS TO SEE ANY REAL-WORLD DIFFERENCE IN THE
HEAT ON THE GROUND. /BB/
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 410 AM CDT FRI JUN 3 2011/
LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY) THE LATEST GFS...EURO AND
ENSEMBLES SEEM TO NEGATE THE AFFECTS OF THE UPPER LOW TO THE SOUTH
FOR THE PERIOD. THE MODELS DO TRY TO BRING A WEAK UPPER FEATURE AT
200-300 MB FOR THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...BUT ITS DIFFICULT TO TRACK
THOSE FEATURES FROM DAY TO DAY. PREFER THE SOLUTION OF A SERIES OF
SUBTLE SHORTWAVES ROTATING AROUND THE MEAN RIDGE ON THE EAST AND
SOUTH SIDES SEEMS TO BE A REASONABLE MODEL ROUTE FOR NOW. THESE WEAK
SHORTWAVES COULD PRODUCE SOME ISOLATED SEVERE WEATHER EVENTS...AS
NOTED BY A WEAK SHORTWAVE ROTATING AROUND THE MEAN RIDGE LAST
EVENING. THIS FEATURE PRODUCED SOME ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS THAT
AFFECTED THE SOUTHWEST PORTION OF THE ARKLAMISS REGION WITH SOME
DAMAGING WINDS. AS NOTED ABOVE WITH THESE SUBTLE SHORT WAVES IF THIS
SHOULD COME TO BE...WE WILL HAVE SOME DECENT LAPSE RATES...
DCAPES...K-INDEXES OF AROUND 40...INVERTED V SOUNDINGS FOR MICRO
BURST POTENTIAL..AND PRECIPITABLE WATER OF 1.8 TO AROUND 2.0 INCHES.
IF THESE STORMS MATERIALIZE SOME ADDITIONAL ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS
MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH SOME SEVERE WINDS. THIS PRECIPITABLE WATER
SHOULD INCREASE CLOUD COVER SOME AND HAVE SOME LIMITED EFFECTS ON
AFTERNOON HIGHS. THE GFS DOES SHOW SOME HIGHER QPF ACROSS THE REGION
THAN THE EURO THROUGH THE PERIOD. BUT WITH THE STRONG SUBSIDENCE
FROM THE MEAN RIDGE...COVERAGE WILL BE ISOLATED AT BEST WITH A LACK
OF A LIFTING MECHANISM. SO WILL KEEP THE POPS ON THE TEEN ISOLATED
SIDE WITH THE MEAN RIDGE KEEPING PRECIP COVERAGE TO A MINIMUM. MADE
SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO MEX POPS.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THE EXTENDED
PERIOD. HEAT INDEXES WILL RANGE FROM 98 TO 105. FOR DAYTIME HIGHS
WENT WITH A BLEND OF HIGH ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE...MEX AND MOS GUIDANCE.
GENERALLY FOLLOWED A BLEND OF GMOS...MEX MOS AND ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE
FOR LOWS. /17/
&&
.AVIATION...SCT CU 4-6KFT WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON
AND THEN DISSIPATE THIS EVENING AFTER SUNSET. ISOLATED TSTMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE IN THE SOUTH BY LATE AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING. ANY
STORM THAT DEVELOP WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR WIND GUSTS AROUND 60
MPH. TSTM CHANCES WILL END BY LATE EVENING AND SKIES WILL BE CLEAR
OVERNIGHT. AREAS OF LIGHT FOG WILL LIKELY REDEVELOP BY 09Z AND LAST
UNTIL 13Z RESULTING IN MVFR VISIBILITIES AT MOST SITES AGAIN. HIGH
PRESSURE SURFACE AND ALOFT WILL SHIFT SLIGHTLY EAST OF THE AREA
SATURDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN LIGHT NE TO EAST WINDS. ISOLATED LATE
AFTN AND EARLY EVENING TSTMS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH WIND GUSTS TO 60
MPH. /22/
