Area forecast discussion, Jun 16, 2:59 PM CDT, 6 hours 3 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
259 PM CDT THU JUN 16 2011

.DISCUSSION...

SKIES ARE PARTLY CLOUDY TO MOSTLY SUNNY ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
THIS AFTERNOON WITH TEMPERATURES MAINLY IN THE 90S. SOME ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS
AFTERNOON. THE FIRST OF THE TWO MCS IS NOW MOVING EAST ACROSS
NORTH CENTRAL ARKANSAS WHILE SECOND MCS IS EXITING SOUTHEAST
KANSAS AND MOVING INTO NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY
EXTENDS ACROSS SOUTHERN TENNESSEE THROUGH CENTRAL ARKANSAS AND
INTO NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. ALL OF THESE FACTORS SHOULD HELP PRODUCE
SOME ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT SO
WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS FOR TONIGHT. SOME ISOLATED SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE TONIGHT WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND PERHAPS
SOME LARGE HAIL AS THE MAIN THREATS.

BY FRIDAY...THE STATIONARY FRONT WILL MOVE NORTH AS A WARM FRONT
WITH SOME ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE MAINLY OVER SECTIONS OF
WEST TENNESSEE AND EXTREME NORTHEAST MISSISSIPPI. UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE BEGIN TO BUILD BACK INTO THE REGION BRINGING A RETURN OF
HOT TEMPERATURES AND LITTLE IF ANY RAIN. THE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE
TO BUILD OVER THE WEEKEND BRINGING AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES INTO THE
MID AND UPPER 90S. HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL BEGIN TO APPROACH 105
DEGREES ACROSS SOME AREAS ALONG THE MISSISSIPPI ON SATURDAY AND
OVER A LARGE PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA ON SUNDAY. A HEAT
ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED FOR THE LATER PART OF THE WEEKEND. THE HOT
AND HUMIND WEATHER SHOULD CONTINUE INTO MONDAY AS WELL.

A NEW COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS
ON TUESDAY WHICH MAY TRIGGER SOME SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
FORECAST AREA TUESDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT WILL SLOWLY APPROACH THE
FORECAST AREA ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. THIS WILL MEAN A
CONTINUED CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS BOTH DAYS. IN ADDITION...
TEMPERATURES WILL BE A LITTLE COOLER STARTING TUESDAY WITH
READINGS APPROACHING NEAR NORMAL LEVELS BY THURSDAY.
