AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
419 AM CST MON DEC 10 2012

.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...STRONG COLD FRONT JUST
NOW STARTING TO OOZE IN THE NORTHWEST TO WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE
REGION...AFTER MAKING VERY LITTLE PROGRESS THIS DIRECTION FOR MUCH
OF THE NIGHT. BUT THE BOUNDARY NOW SEEMS TO BE GETTING A PUSH ALOFT
AND WILL GRADUALLY SPEED UP ITS MOVEMENT THROUGH THE REGION THROUGH
THE REST OF THE DAY. EXPECT IT TO BE CLEARING OUT OF THE EASTERN
PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON WITH
TEMPERATURE DROPS ON THE ORDER OF 15 DEGREES EXPECTED SHORTLY AFTER
FRONTAL PASSAGE. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS BEHIND THE FRONT WILL PRODUCE
A WIND CHILL IN THE COOLER AIR AND MAKE THE TEMP DROP-OFF SEEM MORE
DRAMATIC. HOWEVER...MAVMOS HIGHS LOOKED TOO COOL IN MANY PLACES
ACROSS THE HEART OF THE REGION...BUT MAINLY BECAUSE THIS GUIDANCE IS
SEEMS TO BE TOO FAST WITH FRONTAL PROGRESSION. AS FAR AS
PRECIPITATION GOES...ANTICIPATE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND AT LEAST
EMBEDDED STORMS ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA THIS MORNING...TRANSITIONING
TO LIGHT RAIN BEFORE ENDING FROM WEST TO EAST IN THE AFTERNOON. THE
RISK FOR ANY STRONGER STORMS IS BASICALLY NOW CONFINED TO CENTRAL
AND SOUTHEASTERN MS AND THIS RISK SHOULD BECOME INCREASINGLY
CONFINED TO FAR SOUTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPI THROUGH THE LATE MORNING
INTO MIDDAY HOURS. LOW INSTABILITY IS PROVING A HINDRANCE TO GET
MUCH TRULY SEVERE WEATHER AND THIS SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE THE CASE.
HOWEVER...COMBINATION OF WIND SHEAR AND INSTABILITY WILL STILL BE
SUCH IN THE MENTIONED AREAS WHERE AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM CANNOT BE
RULED OUT. MAIN RISKS WITH ANY SEVERE STORMS THAT MANAGES TO FORM
THROUGH MIDDAY TO EARLY AFTERNOON WILL MAINLY BE DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS...ALTHOUGH A TORNADO WILL NOT BE IMPOSSIBLE.

TONIGHT...EXPECTING CLEARING BEGINNING TO PUSH WELL INTO THE REGION
FROM THE WEST THIS AFTERNOON TO SWEEP ACROSS THE REST OF THE AREA
THROUGH MIDNIGHT. IT IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT SOME DRIZZLE
MAY LINGER IN EASTERN MS INTO THIS EVENING...BUT AS OF RIGHT NOW THE
THINKING IS THAT ANY PRECIP SHOULD BE DONE BY 6 PM. NORTH TO
NORTHWEST WINDS STAYING UP THROUGH THE NIGHT IN MOST AREAS WILL
LIMIT RADIATIONAL COOLING ALTHOUGH STRENGTH OF COLD AIR ADVECTION
ALONE WILL DIP TEMPS INTO THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S BY DAWN
TUESDAY.

TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT COLD HIGH PRESSURE WORKING INTO THE
REGION WILL KEEP NORTH WINDS BLOWING AT LEAST A BIT WHILE A TRAILING
UPPER AIR DISTURBANCE COMES BACK AT THE LOWER MS VALLEY FROM THE
WEST. THIS DISTURBANCE WILL INCREASE HIGHER LEVEL CLOUD COVER ACROSS
AT LEAST THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE REGION ON TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY
NIGHT. THESE CLOUDS WILL HELP KEEP HIGH TEMPS COOL ON TUESDAY AND
MAVMOS NOW ONLY ADVERTISING HIGHS IN THE UPPER 40S TO LOWER 50S
(WHICH SEEMS ABOUT RIGHT). STILL HOLDING ON TO SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN
FAR SOUTHEAST ZONES WHERE MOISTURE COULD GET DEEP ENOUGH TO PRODUCE
MORE THAN VIRGA. ALL PRECIP SHOULD BE EAST OF THE REGION BY LATE
TUESDAY NIGHT WHEN TEMPS GET DOWN TO FREEZING. AT THIS POINT IT IS
NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO THINK THERE COULD BE A BIT OF SLEET AROUND
SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF THE AREA LATE TUESDAY AND THIS POTENTIAL WILL
HAVE TO BE MONITORED. BUT...FOR NOW...POTENTIAL FOR ANY WINTRY TYPE
WEATHER (OR REALLY ANY PRECIPITATION AT ALL) IS LOW ENOUGH TO
WITHHOLD MENTION IN THE HWO. /BB/

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND...SFC RIDGING/LOW LEVEL
NLY FLOW WILL BE IN PLACE WEDNESDAY. THE UPPER TROUGH WILL CROSS THE
REGION DURING THE DAY BUT THE EXTENT OF ITS INFLUENCE LOOKS TO BE A
FEW HIGH CLOUDS ACROSS THE AREA AS A DRY AIR MASS WILL BE IN PLACE.
SURFACE RIDGING WILL CONTINUE WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY BUT A
WARMING TREND WILL BEGIN AS WARM ADVECTION DEVELOPS AND FLAT UPPER
RIDGING OCCURS. WARM ADVECTION WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
FRIDAY...INCREASING FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY WHEN LOW LEVEL SLY
FLOW INTENSIFIES AHEAD OF THE NEXT COLD FRONT.

CLOUDS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE FRIDAY AHEAD OF THE FRONTAL SYSTEM
WITH RAIN CHANCES RETURNING FRIDAY NIGHT. THE COLD FRONT MOVES INTO
WRN ZONES SATURDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING...EXITING THE FORECAST AREA BY
12Z SUNDAY. MEX MOS POPS HAVE AGAIN COME IN ON THE RELATIVELY DRY
SIDE FOR SATURDAY WHICH LOOKS UNREASONABLE WITH A COLD FRONT MOVING
INTO AN AIR MASS OF 1.3-1.5 INCHES PRECIPITABLE WATER. ALTHOUGH THE
EURO SHOWS MOISTURE TO BE NOT QUITE AS DEEP AS THE GFS...MODEL
CONSENSUS ON THE FRONTAL PASSAGE AND AN INCREASING MOISTURE COLUMN
WITH 850 MB DEWPOINTS IN THE 10-12 DEG RANGE WARRANT AN INCREASE IN
RAIN CHANCES TO THE 30-50% RANGE FROM THE 20S ADVERTISED BY MEX MOS.

THE FRONT IS FORECAST TO TRACK QUICKLY ACROSS THE AREA ENDING PRECIP
FROM THE NW DURING THE EVENING. THE BOUNDARY MOVES OUT OF THE
FORECAST AREA BUT STALLS JUST TO OUR EAST SUNDAY. MODELS DIFFER ON
HOW THIS STALLED BOUNDARY WILL AFFECT THE ARKLAMISS...THE EURO
SUGGESTING A DEEP LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DEVELOPING ALONG THE REMNANTS
OF THE COLD FRONT FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE LATEST MODEL RUNS
INDICATE A DRY AIR MASS IN PLACE FOR SUNDAY BUT WITH A STALLED
BOUNDARY IN THE VICINITY WILL LEAVE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS CURRENTLY
ADVERTISED BY MEX MOS IN PLACE FOR NOW.

SLIGHT TWEAKS WERE MADE TO INCREASE HIGHS AHEAD OF THE FRONT FRIDAY
AND INCREASE LOWS FOR SERN ZONES FOR SATURDAY NIGHT WHERE 925 MB
TEMPS REMAINED RELATIVELY WARM IN WLY FLOW THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY. ALSO
INCREASED DEWPOINTS SLIGHTLY FOR SATURDAY AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT.
OTHERWISE MEX MOS TEMPS FOLLOWED.

&&

.AVIATION...WIDESPREAD RAIN AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
ANTICIPATED ACROSS THE AERODROME THIS MORNING WITH ASSOCIATED MVFR
(AND EVEN PATCHY IFR) FLIGHT CATS. HEAVIER RAIN AND STORMS WILL
BECOME INCREASINGLY CONFINED TO EASTERN AND SOUTHEASTERN MS THROUGH
EARLY AFTERNOON...BUT EXPECT LOW CEILINGS AND SOME LIGHT RAIN OR
DRIZZLE TO LINGER BEHIND MAIN RAIN SHIELD FOR A FEW HOURS AT MANY
STATIONS. BY TONIGHT LOW CLOUDS AND ANY LIGHT RAIN WILL EXIT EASTERN
MISSISSIPPI WITH CLEARING SWEEPING THROUGH FROM WEST TO EAST.
NORTHWEST WINDS TODAY WILL RANGE FROM 10 TO 15 MPH WITH HIGHER
GUSTS...BUT WILL DIE DOWN A LITTLE TONIGHT. /BB/
