Area forecast discussion, Jun 15, 6:03 PM CDT, 51 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
603 PM CDT WED JUN 15 2011

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 226 PM CDT WED JUN 15 2011/

CURRENTLY A GOOD PORTION OF THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CWA IS UNDER
A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UNTIL 7PM. HOWEVER CONVECTION HAS BEEN
STRUGGLING TO DEVELOP...DUE TO A COMBINATION OF WEAK LOW LEVEL
FORCING ALONG THE COLD FRONT...A STRENGTHENING CAP AT 850MB AND
EXITING SUPPORT FROM A SHORTWAVE ACROSS THE OHIO AND TENNESSEE
RIVER VALLEYS. CURRENT CAPE VALUES IN THE WATCH AREA ARE HOWEVER
3500-4500 J/KG AS DEWPOINTS HAVE REMAINED IN THE LOW TO MID 70S.
INTERESTING TO SEE THE LATEST MODEL DATA FROM THE RUC AND SREF
BLOWING UP STORMS EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER BETWEEN 19-21Z.
THE NAM AND GFS ALSO SHOW DEVELOPMENT LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...BUT THE 12Z RUNS SHOWN WIDESPREAD CONVECTION OVER THE
MIDSOUTH THIS MORNING WHICH DID NOT PAN OUT. IF STORMS CAN BECOME
ORGANIZED THEY MAY TRAIN THROUGHOUT THE EVENING ACROSS NORTHEAST
MISSISSIPPI...WITH A LOCALIZED THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING. WILL MAKE
MENTION OF THAT IN THE HWO. OTHERWISE LATER THIS EVENING DRIER AIR
WILL MOVE INTO THE NORTHWEST CWA COUNTIES BEHIND THE FRONT WITH
LIGHT NORTHERLY BREEZES. THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL AGAIN BECOME
SLIGHTLY MORE NORTHWEST.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...THE COLD FRONT WILL LIFT BACK NORTH AS A
WARM FRONT THROUGH THE MIDSOUTH THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS A
SHORTWAVE DIVES SOUTHEAST OVER THE AREA. MODELS SHOW AN MCS
DEVELOPING ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI DROPPING SOUTH INTO THE REGION
BY MIDNIGHT. THUS HAVE ADDED POPS DURING THIS TIME FRAME. LEFT
POPS IN ACROSS NORTHWEST TENNESSEE ON FRIDAY AS THE FRONT LIFTS
THROUGH THIS REGION. HIGHS BOTH DAYS STILL APPEAR TO BE IN THE LOW
AND MID 90S...WITH HEAT INDICES APPROACHING 105 ON FRIDAY SOUTH OF
THE FRONT ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA.

SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...THE RIDGE WILL SHIFT OVERHEAD DURING
THIS PERIOD MAKING FOR A VERY HOT WEEKEND AND LITTLE TO NONE IN
ANY RAIN CHANCES. HAVE GONE A FEW DEGREES ABOVE MOS GUIDANCE WITH
HIGH TEMPS AS THE TREND FROM GUIDANCE HAS BEEN ON THE LOW SIDE.
TEMPERATURES WILL MAINLY BE IN THE 95-100 RANGE WITH HEAT INDICES
103-108F RANGE. A HEAT ADVISORY DURING THIS PERIOD SEEMS VERY
LIKELY. LOWS WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S AREA WIDE.

EXTENDED FORECAST INTO MIDDLE NEXT WEEK...SCENARIOS HAVE THE RIDGE
AXIS SHIFTING EAST INTO THE CAROLINAS AS A CUTOFF LOW EMERGES FROM
THE ROCKIES INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. THIS WOULD PLACE THE MIDSOUTH
IN AN UPPER LEVEL SOUTHWEST FLOW AND RETURN CHANCE FOR CONVECTION
AND THE PASSING OF A MIDWEST COLD FRONT. HAVE LEFT ONLY SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS IN FOR NOW AS THE RIDGE MAY BE HARDER TO BUDGE KEEPING
THE AREA DRY.

.AVIATION...

00Z TAF SET

ISOL TSRAS CONTINUE TO FORM ALONG LEFTOVER BOUNDARIES IN THE CWA.
ONE SUCH BOUNDARY CURRENTLY SITS NOT TOO FAR FROM KMEM THUS WILL
CONTINUE MENTION OF CB THROUGH 01Z. REST OF TAF SITES SHOULD
REMAIN CLEAR OF TSRAS. GUSTY WINDS WILL ALSO DIE DOWN SHORTLY
AFTER 1Z AND WILL REMAIN LIGHT AND VARIABLE THROUGH AT LEAST
15-18Z. THEREAFTER...EXPECT SSW WINDS OF 8-10 KTS TO OCCUR ACROSS
THE AREA. MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT A MCS WILL DEVELOP OVER SW MO
TOMORROW AND WILL PUSH INTO NE AR AFTER 21Z. HAVE MENTIONED VCTS AT
KJBR AS A RESULT. OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH
THE PERIOD.
