BKWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 9, 8:27 PM CDT, 2 hours 16 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 9, 8:27 PM CDT, 2 hours 16 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 827 PM CDT THU AUG 9 2012 .UPDATE...REDUCED POPS OVER THE EASTERN PART OF THE AREA AND BUMPED UP POPS OVER THE WESTERN THIRD. LOWERED OVERNIGHT MIN TEMPS BY A DEGREE OR TWO IN A FEW LOCATIONS. /DL/ && .DISCUSSION...THE AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX HAS NOW PUSHED SEWD OUT OF THE AREA. NEW STORMS WERE DEVELOPING IN AN AREA OF 2000-3000 J/KG MLCAPE OVER NE LOUISIANA AND SE ARKANSAS WHERE THE AIRMASS WAS NOT CONTAMINATED BY EARLIER CONVECTION. SOME OF THESE STORMS HAVE BEEN RATHER POTENT THUS FAR THIS EVENING...WITH 50 DBZ ECHOES REACHING 50 KFT AT TIMES. DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WILL REMAIN A POTENTIAL THREAT WITH THE STORMS THROUGH THE NEXT FEW HOURS. NWP GUIDANCE HAS GENERALLY BEEN HANDLING PRECIPITATION POORLY TODAY. BASED ON THE FACT THAT THE ATMOSPHERE HAS BEEN QUITE WORKED OVER ACROSS EASTERN AND SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA...HAVE CUT BACK POPS SUBSTANTIALLY IN THESE AREAS. THE ACTIVITY CURRENTLY OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE AREA WILL LIKELY HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME MOVING/DEVELOPING VERY MUCH FARTHER TO THE EAST INTO THE MORE HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT. DID LEAVE IN SLIGHT CHANCE/LOW END CHANCE POPS FOR THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...AS SOME ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT CANNOT BE ENTIRELY RULED OUT WITH AN UPPER DISTURBANCE SWINGING ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. OVER THE WEST...POPS WERE INCREASED A BIT IN AREAS THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING AFFECTED BY CONVECTION. THE EARLIER CONVECTION KNOCKED A FEW SITES BELOW PREVIOUSLY FORECAST LOW TEMPS FOR TONIGHT...MAINLY ALONG THE I-59 CORRIDOR. MIN TEMPS WERE TWEAKED IN THESE AREAS. READINGS SHOULD NOT FALL OFF MUCH MORE IN THESE AREAS BUT RATHER HOLD NEARLY STEADY FOR MOST OF THE NIGHT. IN ADDITION...HOURLY WX ELEMENT GRIDS WERE UPDATED BASED ON CURRENT OBSERVATIONAL TRENDS. UPDATED PRODUCTS ARE BEING SENT. /DL/ && .AVIATION...THUNDERSTORMS HAVE GENERALLY BEEN CONFINED TO LOCATIONS WEST OF THE TAF SITES EARLY THIS EVENING...AND IT APPEARS STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MISS THEM OVERNIGHT AS THE AIRMASS OVER CENTRAL MS HAS BEEN STABILIZED FROM EARLIER STORMS. FOR FRIDAY...THE BETTER MOISTURE CONVERGENCE WILL SET UP OVER THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA FRIDAY AND EXPECT THE GREATER RISK FOR MAINLY AFTERNOON STORMS FROM HKS/JAN TO MEI AND HBG. /EC/ && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED AT 400 PM CDT THU AUG 9 2012/ WITH THE ASSUMPTION THAT THERE WILL PROBABLY NOT BE A WHOLE LOT OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ONGOING IN THE REGION AT DAYBREAK...I AM ANTICIPATING HEATING AND ASSOCIATED DESTABILIZATION THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS TO COMBINE WITH AN INCOMING COLD FRONT TO BREAK OUT LOTS MORE SHOWERS AND STORMS FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. THE CURRENT FORECAST IS PERHAPS NOT WET ENOUGH CONSIDERING LAST MINUTE EURO MODEL DATA...BUT GFS-BASED MAV POPS WERE ALREADY RAISED SOME 15 TO 20 POINTS IN MOST AREAS. THE PROSPECT OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE SIMILAR TO WHAT HAS BEEN THE CASE TODAY...WHERE INSTABILITY WAS NOT ABLE TO ACHIEVE LEVELS QUITE HIGH ENOUGH TO (SO FAR) PRODUCE MANY TRULY SEVERE STORMS DESPITE A DECENT DISTURBANCE IN PLACE. SO FOR TOMORROW CONFIDENCE IS HIGH THERE WILL DEFINITELY BE SOME STRONG STORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS AND A LITTLE SMALL HAIL AROUND WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR AT LEAST A FEW STORMS OF HIGHER CALIBER. OVERALL MODEL CONSENSUS SEEMS TO HANG THE COLD FRONT UP A BIT NEAR THE HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR TOMORROW NIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY...WITH THE FRONT THEN PUSHING DOWN TO THE COAST AND WASHING OUT LATER ON SATURDAY. IF THIS GENERAL EVOLUTION OCCURS THERE COULD STILL BE A FEW CLOUDS AND A STRAY SHOWER OVER SOUTHERN ZONES INTO SATURDAY...BUT OTHERWISE SKIES WOULD BE CLEARING FROM THE NORTH TOMORROW NIGHT WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER (AND DEFINITELY DRIER) AIR STARTING TO FILTER SOUTH. MOST THE WEEKEND SHOULD BE QUITE NICE IN COMPARISON TO RECENT WEATHER...WITH HIGHS SATURDAY NEAR 90 AND MUCH LOWER HUMIDITY. LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT SHOULD GET DOWN INTO THE RELATIVELY PLEASANT 60S. I WILL JUST CROSS MY FINGERS THAT OUTLYING MODEL SOLUTIONS HANGING THE FRONT UP FURTHER NORTH THAN CONSENSUS WILL BEHAVE AS MOST OUTLYING SOLUTIONS...AND NOT COME TO PASS. AFTER THIS WEEKEND THE PREVIOUS FORECAST LOOKS ON TRACK AND THE PREVIOUS FORECAST DISCUSSION CONCERNING THIS PERIOD HAS BEEN POSTED BELOW. /BB/ LONG TERM...UNFORTUNATELY...JUST AS QUICK AS THIS DRIER AIR CAME...THE AIRMASS WILL MODERATE UP THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. THIS BASICALLY EQUATES TO A RETURN TO WHAT'S BEEN THE NORM FOR SUMMER ACROSS THE CWA...HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS EACH AFTERNOON...LINGERING INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. MODELS DO INDICATE A WEAK BOUNDARY TRYING TO SNEAK INTO THE CWA AND MEANDERING ABOUT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH MID-WEEK. IF THIS PANS OUT...IT COULD ENHANCE RAIN CHANCES DURING THE LATTER HALF OF THE FORECAST PERIOD...AND COULD RESULT IN A COMPLEX OR TWO OF SHOWERS AND STORMS TRAVERSING THE REGION UNDER NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. /19/ && .JAN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
