AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1002 PM CST SUN DEC 9 2012

.UPDATE...A SQUALL LINE HAS DEVELOPED AS EXPECTED IN ASSOCIATION WITH AN
APPROACHING STRONG COLD FRONT TO OUR WEST. SHOWERS ALONG WITH STRONG
TO SEVERE STORMS WERE CURRENTLY APPROACHING THE DELTA REGION. THE
ONLY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE FORECAST WAS TO LOWER POPS SOME
ACROSS EASTERN MS SINCE MOST OF THE WEATHER WILL BE ARRIVING LATER
TONIGHT TOWARDS THE EARLY MORNING. ONLY OTHER CHANGE WAS MINOR
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE HOURLY TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS. /27/

&&

.AVIATION...MVFR CATEGORY STRATUS CEILINGS ARE DEVELOPING THIS EVENING AND
EXPECTED TO AFFECT MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA AS WE GO THROUGH THE
NIGHT...BUT EYES ARE MOSTLY ON THE DEVELOPING SQUALL LINE OVER THE
ARKLATEX REGION ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG COLD FRONT. THE TAF
FORECASTS REVOLVE HEAVILY AROUND TIMING OF THE SQUALL LINE AND
FRONTAL PASSAGE --- EXPECTED MAINLY IN THE 06Z TO 18Z MONDAY TIME
FRAME FROM NW TO SE. LOWER IFR CATEGORY STRATUS MAY DEVELOP DURING
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS...ESPECIALLY IN THE HBG TO MEI AREA...SO
WILL BE KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON THAT POTENTIAL.

AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF VFR CONDITIONS WILL RETURN TO THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA MONDAY AFTERNOON...LASTING THROUGH AT FRIDAY BASED ON
THE LATEST GUIDANCE. /EC/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 316 PM CST SUN DEC 9 2012/

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...A DEEP UPPER TROUGH AND
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE DELTA LATE THIS EVENING AND
CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE MODELS HAVE
SPED UP THE FRONT A TOUCH FROM PREVIOUS RUNS AND ALSO CONTINUE TO
INDICATE MARGINAL INSTABILITY WITH AROUND 400-600 J/KG OF MU CAPE
WITH THE INSTABILITY WAINING AS THE FRONT PROGRESSES ACROSS THE AREA.
THE NAM CONTINUES TO BE THE MOST UNSTABLE...BUT IT IS THE OUTLIER
WITH THE GFS/ECMWF BOTH IN AGREEMENT OF LESS CAPE. THE MODELS
CONTINUE TO INDICATE AROUND 25KT OF 0-1KM SHEAR WITH THE STRONGEST
SHEAR THIS EVENING AND BECOMING UNIDIRECTIONAL OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST
TONIGHT...SO CONTINUE EXPECT A SQUALL LINE TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA
WITH STRONG TO SEVERE POSSIBLE. EXPECT STRONG WINDS TO BE THE MAIN
RISK WITH GUSTS OF 40-60 MPH. THE HIGHEST RISK OF SEVERE WILL BE
MAINLY FOR AREAS NORTHWEST OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE ASSOCIATED WITH THE
BEST INSTABILITY.

THE FRONT WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA BY EARLY TO MID AFTERNOON ON
MONDAY WITH SHOWERS ENDING FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST. THE SURFACE
GRADIENT IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WILL BE TIGHT ENOUGH TO SUPPORT
GUSTY WINDS...WITH GUSTS FROM 25-30 MPH POSSIBLE IN THE DELTA DURING
THE LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

COLD HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN OVER THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY WITH LOWS FALLING INTO THE UPPER 20S TO LOW 30S. A COOL DAY
IS ON TAP FOR TUESDAY WITH HIGHS ONLY CLIMBING INTO THE MID 40S TO
AROUND 50. CLOUDS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE LATE ON TUESDAY AS A
BAROCLINIC ZONE SETS UP TO THE SOUTH OF THE AREA OUT AHEAD OF ANOTHER
STRONG UPPER TROUGH THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH ON WEDNESDAY. WITH THE
INCREASE IN CLOUDS THE TEMPERATURES MAY MODERATE A BIT TUESDAY
NIGHT...SO WILL GO WITH GUIDANCE TEMPS FOR LOWS. A FEW LIGHT
SPRINKLES...OR POSSIBLY A FEW FLURRIES MAY ALSO BE POSSIBLE IN THE
SOUTHEAST EARLY ON WEDNESDAY ALSO. STUCK PRETTY CLOSE TO GUIDANCE
TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD...BUT DID RAISE ABOVE POP GUIDANCE
TONIGHT IN SOME AREAS. DID NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE FORECAST BEYOND
TUESDAY NIGHT...SO WILL ATTACH THE APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE
PREVIOUS LONG TERM BELOW./15/

PREVIOUS LONG TERM...LOW LEVEL CHILLY HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED IN
VICINITY WILL SPELL MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES FOR THE REGION LATE TUESDAY
NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...ALTHOUGH LIGHT WINDS WILL TURN AROUND TO THE
SOUTH BY THURSDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL AVERAGE AROUND 5 TO 10 DEGREES
BELOW NORMAL (WHICH IS QUITE A DEPARTURE FROM RECENT TRENDS) TUESDAY
NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT. EXPECT MODERATION TO NEAR NORMAL
THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT WITH SUBTLE INCREASE IN HIGHER CLOUDS AS
ENERGY GATHERS OUT TO OUR WEST.

VIGOROUS INFLUX OF THE PACIFIC UPPER JET INTO THE FOUR CORNERS AND
SOUTHERN PLAINS LATE NEXT WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND WILL PUT THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI IN THE CROSSHAIRS FOR STORMINESS BY NEXT WEEKEND.
MENTIONED ENERGY WILL COME UP AGAINST NORTHERN FRINGE OF SUBTROPICAL
RIDGING IN THE DEEP SOUTH...POTENTIALLY SETTING THE STAGE FOR A
ROUND OR TWO OF NEARBY CYCLOGENESIS OCCURRING ALONG STALLING FRONTS.
INITIAL MODEL PROJECTIONS SHOWS PLENTY OF MOISTURE WILL CONGREGATE
IN THE WESTERN GULF AND PROVIDE FUEL FOR AT LEAST HEAVY RAIN
PRODUCTION AS WE GO INTO THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK. THIS PERIOD
FROM LATE THIS WEEK INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED
CLOSELY FOR IMPACT WEATHER IN THE DAYS TO COME...BUT UNCERTAINTY WAY
TOO HIGH TO START MENTIONING IN THE HWO AT THIS JUNCTURE. FOR NOW I
GENERALLY ACCEPTED MEX MOS POPS (ALTHOUGH DELAYING ONSET OF
SIGNIFICANT POPS A LITTLE) AND WHOLLY ACCEPTED MEX TEMPS TRENDING
ABOVE NORMAL. /BB/
