AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
328 PM CDT SUN AUG 7 2011
.DISCUSSION...
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.
SMALL MCV OVER CENTRAL ARKANSAS HAS BEEN PRODUCING POTENT
THUNDERSTORMS WITH MICROBURSTS BEING REPORTED NEAR LITTLE ROCK
THIS AFTERNOON. THIS FEATURE WILL CONTINUE TO HEAD EAST INTO
NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI EARLY THIS EVENING. SOME SEVERE STORMS ARE
POSSIBLE THROUGH ABOUT 9 OR 10 PM BEFORE INSTABILITY DIMINISHES
SUFFICIENTLY. ADDED AN ENHANCED AREA OF POPS TO COVER THIS FEATURE
OVER THE SOUTHWESTERN AREAS...WITH SCHC ELSEWHERE.
SHOULD SEE ONE MORE DAY OF VERY HOT TEMPERATURES ON MONDAY BEFORE
BIG CHANGES FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK. THERMAL RIDGE REMAINS IN
PLACE BUT INTENSITY BEGINS TO WANE CONSIDERABLY BY MONDAY EVENING
AS THE RIDGE BEGINS RETROGRADING WESTWARD. NAM12 INDICATES HIGHS
IN THE UPPER 90S/LOW 100S AGAIN...WITH THE ECMWF ON THE COOLER
SIDE OF GUIDANCE DUE TO EXCESSIVE CLOUDS/STORMS. MET/MAV NUMBERS
ARE CLOSE WITH TEMPERATURES/POPS SO WENT WITH THOSE. AFTER ADDING
IN DEW POINT GRIDS AND CALCULATING HEAT INDICES...LOOKS LIKE THE
CURRENT HEADLINE CONFIGURATION IS IN GOOD SHAPE.
CLUSTER OF STORMS IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER EASTERN KS/SWRN MO
MONDAY AFTERNOON ON THE READING EDGE OF THE RIDGE. AS THE RIDGE
BUILDING WESTWARD...THIS CLUSTER SHOULD DEVELOP INTO A FORWARD
PROPAGATING MCS AND TRACK EAST SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN CWA
MONDAY NIGHT. DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE...PARTICULARLY
ACROSS NERN AR/MO/NWRN TN. BUMPED UP POPS TO LIKELY MAINLY AFTER
MIDNIGHT OVER THE NORTH WITH CHC ELSEWHERE.
CLOUDS AND LINGERING SHOWERS/STORMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE MCS MAY
STILL BE ONGOING TUESDAY ACROSS THE NORTH AND EAST. THIS SHOULD
KEEP TEMPERATURES CONSIDERABLY COOLER THROUGH THE DAY...WITH HIGHS
ONLY IN THE MID 80S. FARTHER WEST THE RIDGE WILL STILL HAVE SOME
INFLUENCE AND WITH WEST WINDS SHOULD BE ABLE TO RECOVER BACK TO
THE LOW OR MID 90S ACROSS NORTHWEST MS.
BRIEF BREAK EXPECTED TUESDAY NIGHT WITH CLEARING SKIES. LIGHT
NORTHEASTERLY FLOW WILL BRING REFRESHINGLY COOLER AIR NOT SEEN
AROUND HERE IN SOME TIME.
.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
THE RIDGE TRIES TO BUILD BACK A BIT WEDNESDAY...BUT WONT QUITE
MAKE IT THIS FAR EAST. INSTEAD IT WILL TIGHTEN THE THICKNESS
PATTERN AND BRINGING A HIGH PROBABILITY OF ADDITIONAL MCS
DEVELOPMENT OVER SOUTHEAST KS/SRN MO THAT WILL TRACK EAST
SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH LATE WED...ESPECIALLY WED
NITE...AND THEN AGAIN FRIDAY NIGHT. ANY OF THESE MAY BRING
DAMAGING WINDS. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO HOVER NEAR OR
SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE DEPENDING ON TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF EACH
MCS.
FRESH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING SOUTH INTO THE PLAINS WILL BRING A
POSSIBLE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE MIDSOUTH IN THE SATURDAY TIME
FRAME. SOME STORMS CAN BE EXPECTED WITH IT.
FOR LATE NEXT WEEKEND A NORTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE THE FEED OF
COOLER AND LESS HUMID AIR...ALONG WITH SUNNY SKIES.

.AVIATION...
18Z TAFS
THE ATMOSPHERE HAD BECOME VERY UNSTABLE ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH AT
17Z. THUS FAR... TS THREAT HAS BEEN SUPPRESSED BY WARM TEMPERATURES
ALOFT. THE MAIN FEATURE OF CONCERN IS A MIDLEVEL CIRCULATION
EVIDENT ON GOES VISIBLE IMAGERY AND KLZK RADAR MOVING
EAST/SOUTHEAST THROUGH NORTHWEST AR. OF THE FORECAST MODELS... THE
12Z NAM APPEARS TO HAVE THE BEST HANDLE ON THIS FEATURE...BRINGING
IT INTO CENTRAL AR THIS AFTERNOON. EXPECT TSRA TO DEVELOP ALONG
THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST FLANKS OF THE MIDLEVEL CIRCULATION... WITH
BEST TSRA COVERAGE OVER NORTH MS.
HAVE BUMPED UP TO A LATE AFTERNOON VCTS AT MEM...GIVEN THE
PROXIMITY OF EXPECTED SCATTERED CONVECTION OVER NORTHWEST MS.
