AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
310 PM CDT SAT AUG 18 2012

...WET WEEKEND TO BOOST RAIN TOTALS WELL ABOVE NORMAL FOR MONTH...

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...
THE PRIMARY CONCERNS WILL BE THE LIMITED CHANCE OF A FEW STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL.
THE FACT THAT THE STRONG STORM POTENTIAL IS BEING LIMITED SOME BY
HIGH CLOUD DEBRIS...WHICH HAS HINDERED HIGH TEMPS AND LIMITING
INSTABILITY...FROM EARLIER STORMS NORTHWEST OF THE REGION. ALSO THE
POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS FOR
SUNDAY AND SUNDAY EVENING ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20 AS THE
FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION...FOLLOWED BY DRYING FROM THE
NORTHWEST FROM MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT.

LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWED A BROAD UPPER TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN
CONUS. A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES WERE MOVING TOWARD THE REGION IN
NORTHWEST FLOW. ONE OF THEM HAD TRIGGERED A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX
ACROSS THE REGION. HAVE ISSUED A FEW WARNINGS SO FAR THIS AFTERNOON.
WE HAVE NOT REACH POTENTIAL INSTABILITY WITH THESE STORMS. A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WAS NOTED ACROSS THE NORTH HALF OF THE REGION.

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...THE LOCAL AND
NATIONAL WRF MODELS SHOWS THE COMPLEX OF STORMS CROSSING THE
REMAINDER OF THE REGION FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EARLY EVENING.
NONE OF THE MODELS SHOWS ANYTHING OF SIGNIFICANCE OVERNIGHT...AS
THIS COMPLEX WILL STABILIZE THE AIRMASS IN ITS WAKE. SO HAVE LOWERED
TO CHANCE POPS AFTER 02Z ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT. WITH THE
BOUNDARY SLOWLY SAGGING SOUTH AND HIGH PWATS. THERE IS STILL SOME
LIMITED POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WITH LOCALLY
HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL OF 1-2 INCHES PER HOUR FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON. IT WILL BE A MILD MUGGY NIGHT WITH LOWS FROM AROUND 70 TO 72.
ADJUSTED EVENING POPS BASED ON AFTERNOON TRENDS.

FOR SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO CROSS THE
REGION. THE BEST CHANCE FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL BE
ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 20. THE FLOW WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE
MID LEVELS AS THE UPPER TROUGH SHARPENS UP ACROSS THE REGION. THIS
ALONG WITH INSTABILITY WILL AID IN THE SEVERE POTENTIAL AND ALSO
INCREASE STORM MOTION AS WE GO INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
PWATS WILL STILL BE HIGH THUS HAVING LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL.
WENT CLOSE TO MAV LIKELY POPS FOR SUNDAY AND CHANCE TO LIKELY POPS
FOR SUNDAY NIGHT. THE FRONTAL ZONE SHOULD MOVE ABOUT A NATCHEZ TRACE
AXIS BY MIDNIGHT SUNDAY NIGHT. WENT CLOSE TO MAV GUIDANCE ON TEMPS.
HIGHS WILL BE FROM THE 84-91 AND LOWS 65-72.

FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT... THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL MOVE
THROUGH SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI ON MONDAY MORNING. THERE WILL BE ONLY
ISOLATED CHANCES OF CONVECTION ACROSS THE REGION DURING THE DAY...AS
THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS MOVES ACROSS THE REGION. DRYING WILL BE COMING
FROM THE NORTHWEST...WHICH SHOULD TAKE THE RAINS OUT OF THE REGION
BY MONDAY EVENING. WENT CLOSE TO MAV GUIDANCE ON HIGHS AND LOWS.
HIGHS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 80S. LOWS WILL BE A
LITTLE COOLER WITH READINGS FROM THE LOWER TO UPPER 60S./17/

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...THE GFS/ECMWF ARE IN PRETTY
GOOD AGREEMENT OF THE LONGWAVE TROUGH AXIS PUSHING EAST OF THE REGION
EARLY IN THE PERIOD. ALONG WITH THIS WILL BE COOLER/DRIER AIR AS
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING BUILDS IN FROM A HIGH CENTERED OVER THE EASTER
PLAINS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RUN ANYWHERE FROM ABOUT 5-10 DEGREES
BELOW NORMAL ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA ON TUESDAY ALONG WITH MORNING
LOWS IN THE LOW/MID 60S. THE SURFACE HIGH WILL SHIFT INTO THE OHIO
VALLEY ON TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY...WITH THE DRIER/COOLER CONDITIONS
CONTINUING ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS.

WEAK UPPER RIDGING WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA ON THURSDAY ALONG WITH
MORE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES...BUT EXPECT THE AREA TO REMAIN DRY
WITH PWATS REMAINING BELOW AN INCH OVER MOST OF THE AREA. MOISTURE
WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE ACROSS THE AREA ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ALONG
WITH INCREASED CHANCES FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. STUCK
PRETTY CLOSE TO GUIDANCE TEMPS/POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD./15/

&&
.AVIATION...

SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA
WITH THE APPROACH OF AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE. EXPECT HAZARDOUS/
TURBULENT AVIATION CONDITIONS AT MOST TAF SITES...MAINLY AT
JAN/HKS/GTR/MEI/HBG FOR THE NEXT FEW HOUR...STORMS COULD INTENSIFY
QUICKLY AT ANY TAF SITE DURING THIS PERIOD AND BECOME SEVERE. MVFR
TO AREAS OF IFR CONDITIONS SHOULD BE MORE WIDESPREAD LATER TONIGHT
THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT DUE TO LOW CEILINGS AND PERHAPS AREAS OF FOG.
OTHERWISE...ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS ARE EXPECTED FOR SUNDAY...MAINLY
AFFECTING JAN/HKS/MEI/HBG. /40/EC/

226 PM CDT SAT AUG 18 2012

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI...
NORTHEAST LOUISIANA...AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT AND SUNDAY

A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL
BE POSSIBLE AS WE GO THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON. A THUNDERSTORM
COMPLEX MOVING EAST ACROSS CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI IS BRINGING SCATTERED
TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS. THE STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING 50 TO 60 MPH WIND GUSTS AND PENNY SIZE HAIL. ALSO...A QUICK
ONE TO TWO INCHES OF RAINFALL MAY OCCUR AND RESULT IN MINOR FLOODING
OF LOW-LYING AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. STORMS WILL MOVE OUT AND
DIMINISH AS WE GO INTO THE EARLY EVENING.

MORE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY EVENING AS THE
SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT SETTLES INTO THE AREA ALONG AND SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE TWENTY. A SEVERE STORM OR TWO IS NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION...ESPECIALLY LATE SUNDAY. THE MOST INTENSE STORMS COULD
CONTAIN WIND GUSTS FROM 50 TO 60 MPH AS WELL AS HAIL UP TO THE SIZE
OF QUARTERS. MANY STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING FREQUENT
LIGHTNING STRIKES AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS.

IN ADDITION...TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS LASTING UP TO AN HOUR WILL BE
CAPABLE OF BRINGING A QUICK ONE TO TWO INCHES OF RAIN...ESPECIALLY
LATER SUNDAY. IF STORMS MOVE OVER THE SAME GROUND REPEATEDLY THEN
FLASH FLOODING COULD BECOME MORE LIKELY. OTHERWISE...LOW SPOTS AND
POOR DRAINAGE AREAS SHOULD BE THE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE TO HIGH WATER
ISSUES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY

THE PROBABILITY FOR WIDESPREAD HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS LOW.

.SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
THE ACTIVATION OF STORM SPOTTERS...HAM RADIO OPERATORS...AND EMERGENCY
MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL IN SUPPORT OF SEVERE WEATHER OPERATIONS COULD BE
