AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
943 PM CDT WED APR 4 2012

.UPDATE...EVENING ANALYSIS SHOWED PLENTY OF DRY AIR HAD FOLLOWED THE
WEDNESDAY MORNING MCS INTO MUCH OF OUR CWFA. PWATS HAD DROPPED TO
JUST UNDER 1 INCH AT 00Z WITH VIRTUALLY NO LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE
NOTED IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA TO FOCUS ANY ADDITIONAL TSRA. HOWEVER LL
MOISTURE RETURN HAD ALSO DEVELOPED UP THE SABINE RIVER VALLEY TO OUR
W AND MID LEVEL 7-500MB LAPSE RATES REMAIN QUITE IMPRESSIVE AT NEARLY
8C ALONG THE MS RIVER. A FIRST BATCH OF ELEVATED SHRA OVER NRN AND
CENTRAL LA WAS STRUGGLING TO DEVELOP SINCE 22Z AND HAVE BUMPED ALL
POPS DOWNWARD THRU MIDNIGHT.

THE MID LEVEL LOW SPINNING EWD ACROSS CENTRAL OK MOVES INTO NRN AR
OVERNIGHT AND THEN WRN TN THURSDAY MORNING. LATEST RUC13 SHOWS SOME
TSRA EVENTUALLY FORMING/DEVELOPING INTO SWRN/ SRN MS AFTER MIDNIGHT
WITH MORE INTENSE ACTIVITY STAYING S OF I-10. MEANWHILE...HRR/SREF
RUNS SHOW A SEPARATE AND MORE POTENT BAND OF TSRA FORMING ALONG A
KPBF-KMLU-KLFT AXIS ABOUT 09Z-12Z AND EXPANDING QUICKLY EWD INTO THE
WRN HALF OF CWFA THROUGH 15-18Z. THESE STORMS SHOULD REMAIN ELEVATED
BUT PACK A BIT OF PUNCH WITH QUARTER SIZED HAIL AND BRIEF WIND GUSTS
OF 50-60MPH BEING LIMITED BY WEAK LOW LEVEL WIND FIELDS/SHEAR.

HAVE GENERALLY BACKED OFF ON OVERNIGHT POPS FOR OUR ERN PORTIONS AND
THEN BOOSTED THEM IN THE MS PORTIONS THURSDAY MORNING AS A DISTINCT
VORT TROUGH SWINGS THE FINAL ROUND OF STORMS THROUGH THE CWFA. THESE
STORMS COULD INTENSIFY A BIT MORE AS THEY BECOME SURFACE BASED IN ERN
MS AROUND MIDDAY THURSDAY AND LAST INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS./40/

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS PREVAILED ACROSS ALL SITES THROUGH EARLY
EVENING WITH ONLY CIRRUS LEVEL CLOUDS NOTED. EXPECT SOME BROKEN
CLOUD LAYERS 4-6K FEET DEVELOPING FROM W TO E THROUGH 06Z. MVFR
CONDITIONS DEVELOP 06Z-10Z TONIGHT...MAINLY SW OF HWY 49 AND SHOULD
BECOME AREAS OF IFR CONDITIONS IN CONVECTION AND LOW STRATUS THROUGH
16Z THU MORNING. CONDITIONS RETURN TO MOSTLY VFR AGAIN W OF I-55
18Z-20Z WHILE MVFR HOLDS FOR LOCATIONS TO THE E. A FEW STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE EARLY THU ACROSS THE FAR WRN AREAS
GENERALLY ALONG AND WEST OF THE MS RIVER...THEN THE REST OF THE
REGION AFTER DAYBREAK./40/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 344 PM CDT WED APR 4 2012/

DISCUSSION...LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THURSDAY...AS ELUDED TO
EARLIER THE EXPANSIVE AREA OF SHOWERS AND STORMS...NOW WELL OFFSHORE
OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO...THAT MOVED ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT INTO THIS MORNING HELPED TO STABILIZE OUR
AIRMASS FOR TODAY THUS LIMITING CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT.  THE CIRRUS
DEBRIS FROM SAID AREA REMAINS OVER A GOOD PORTION OF THE CWA BUT IS
ERODING FROM WEST TO EAST.  AS THE ATMOSPHERE WARMS AND SLOWLY
DESTABILIZE LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING...ISOLATED SHOWERS
OR STORMS COULD POPPING UP ACROSS THE AREA.

MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THE AIRMASS OVER THE REGION GRADUALLY
RECOVERING LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO TONIGHT AHEAD OF A COLD
FRONT CURRENTLY OVER EAST TEXAS AND A VIGOROUS UPPER LOW SPINNING
INTO WEST CENTRAL OKLAHOMA.  WHILE LITTLE MOVEMENT IS OCCURRING WITH
THIS SYSTEM...AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DROPPING SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
PACIFIC NORTHWEST THIS EVENING WILL CAUSE THIS FRONT AND UPPER LOW
TO SPEED ITS EASTWARD PROGRESSION UP A BIT... BRINGING IT CLOSER TO
THE ARKLAMISS REGION OVERNIGHT...AND EVENTUALLY THROUGH THE REGION
DURING THE COURSE OF THE DAY THURSDAY.

CURRENT THINKING IS THAT IF WE INDEED SEE ANY SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS
THE CWA...IT'LL BE FROM LATE TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY AS LOBES OF
ASCENT ROTATE AROUND THE BASE OF THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LOW AIDING
IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION.  HIGH-RES AND EVEN SOME OF THE
GLOBAL MODELS AGREE WITH THIS.  ONCE AGAIN THE HIGH-RES MODELS HAVE
DONE A GOOD JOB WITH THIS PATTERN/REGIME WE'RE CURRENTLY DEALING
WITH.  BECAUSE OF THIS...I'M FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO STRAY TOO FAR
FROM THEIR ASSESSMENT.

WITH THE ATMOSPHERE AGAIN IN THE PROCESS OF RECOVERING AND BETTER
INSTABILITY IN PLACE...COUPLED WITH BETTER FORCING COMING IN FROM
THE WEST...CONTINUED STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES...AND ADEQUATE WIND
SHEAR...SHOWERS AND STORMS SHOULD BEGIN TO INITIATE ACROSS NORTHERN
AND CENTRAL LOUISIANA THIS EVENING...AND PUSH EAST NORTHEAST INTO
THE FORECAST AREA LATER TONIGHT AND INTO THURSDAY.  SOME MODELS ALSO
SUGGEST THAT ACTIVITY COULD CONGEAL INTO A COMPLEX AND RACE THROUGH
THE CWA OVERNIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING.

WITH ALL OF THAT SAID...WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION THE POTENTIAL FOR A
FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...WITH EVEN A TORNADO OR TWO POSSIBLE...IN THE
HWO TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY.  THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR SUCH CONVECTION
TONIGHT APPEARS TO BE SW OF THE HIGHWAY 49 CORRIDOR...AND THEN
SHIFTING TO THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CWA ON THURSDAY. THE POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY RAINFALL PERHAPS RESULTING IN SOME LOCALIZE FLASH FLOODING
CANNOT BE RULED OUT EITHER...ESPECIALLY ACROSS MY SOUTHERN ZONES
WHERE A GENERAL 1-2 INCHES OF RAIN FELL AS A RESULT OF YESTERDAY AND
THIS MORNING'S ACTIVITY.  WILL HOLD OFF ON ISSUING A FLASH FLOOD
WATCH THOUGH AS A GOOD BIT OF UNCERTAINTY REMAINS WITH HOW THINGS
WILL EXACTLY UNFOLD TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW. /19/

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY...GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN EXCELLENT
AGREEMENT THAT THE MID LEVEL RIDGE WILL REBUILD OVER THE ARKLAMISS
BRINGING A RETURN TO DRY CONDITIONS AND NEAR TO ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES AS WE GO INTO THE WEEKEND. MODELS HAVE BACKED OFF ON
THE INFLUENCE OF A NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH THAT WAS EXPECTED TO BRING
A RETURN TO SHOWER/TSTM CHANCES FROM SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...AND THIS
SEEMS REASONABLE GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE RIDGE IN PLACE. HAVE
FOLLOWED MEX MOS GUIDANCE AND LIMITED SMALL RAIN CHANCES TO
MONDAY/MON NIGHT FOR NOW.

OTHERWISE...IT STILL APPEARS THERE WILL BE A CHANGE IN THE PATTERN
FOR EARLY-MID NEXT WEEK WITH MODELS CONTINUING TO SHOW RETROGRESSION
OF THE MEAN RIDGE POSITION AND DEVELOPMENT OF A STRONG EASTERN CONUS
TROUGH. THIS WOULD INDUCE COOL NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE ARKLAMISS AND
A PERIOD OF COOLER WEATHER AND BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES IF IT
VERIFIES. AT THIS TIME...IT DOES NOT LOOK COOL ENOUGH TO BRING A
LATE SEASON FROST/FREEZE. /EC/

OR TWO CAN NOT BE RULED OUT. THE STORMS SHOULD END BY THURSDAY
