AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1035 AM CDT THU AUG 9 2012

.UPDATE...RECIPE FOR LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL IN PLACE THIS MORNING
UP ALONG AND HIGHWAY 82 CORRIDOR IN CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI AS A RATHER
STRONG SUMMER TROUGH DIVES SOUTHEAST INTO THE REGION. WARM AIR AND
MOISTURE ADVECTION EARLIER THIS MORNING KICKED OFF A SLOW MOVING
CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD THAT HAS SINCE SHOWN A
STRONG TENDENCY TO BACK-BUILD AND TRAIN ACTIVITY OVER SIMILAR AREAS.
THIS TENDENCY IS EXPLAINED WELL BY LATEST RUC ANALYSIS REVEALING 850
MB CORFIDI VECTOR RIDGING JUXTAPOSING ITSELF IN THE SAME GENERAL
REGION. MIX OF MODELS AND ANALYSIS ALSO REVEAL SUBTLE RIGHT ENTRANCE
REGION JET STREAM DYNAMICS COULD ALSO BE IMPARTING ADDITIONAL
ATMOSPHERIC LIFT TO THE SITUATION. BY EARLY AFTERNOON (AND HOPEFULLY
BEFORE) THE ATMOSPHERIC SITUATION PRODUCING THE TRAINING CONVECTION
SHOULD EVOLVE TO THE POINT WHERE ACTIVITY WILL PROGRESS SOUTHEAST
(AND THUS NOT TRAIN AND BE SUCH A FLASH FLOOD WORRY).

OTHERWISE...SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THE FORECAST AREA SO FAR THIS
MORNING HAVE MAINLY BEEN CONFINED TO THE AFOREMENTIONED HIGHWAY 82
CORRIDOR. HOWEVER...THIS SHOULD CHANGE IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS SINCE
THE INCOMING UPPER TROUGH IS IMPARTING MORE AND MORE LIFT ACROSS THE
WHOLE OF THE REGION AND FAVORABLE MOISTURE ADVECTION VECTORS ARE
EVOLVING. BEST CHANCES FOR STORMS WILL OF COURSE BE RIGHT NOW IN
NORTH-CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN ZONES (WHERE IT IS RAINING LIKE
HECK)...BUT IN 2 TO 3 HOURS THE BEST CHANCES WILL SHIFT TO AREAS
ROUGHLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE CORRIDOR THROUGH MID TO
LATE AFTERNOON. FORTUNATELY...WE DO NOT EXPECT A REPEAT OF BIG
FLOODING WORRIES FURTHER SOUTH IN THE REGION TODAY...ALTHOUGH
COMBINATION OF MODEST SHEAR/MODEST INSTABILITY AND AMPLE LIFT WILL
UNDOUBTEDLY BE ENOUGH TO GENERATE SOME STRONG TO OCCASIONAL SEVERE
STORMS. MAIN RISK WITH THE MOST INTENSE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING
WINDS AND HAIL UP TO QUARTER SIZE OR SO.

BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON WE ANTICIPATE MOST STORMS ASSOCIATED WITH
FIRST SHORT WAVE SHOULD BE EXITING TO THE EAST OR SOUTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA WHILE ANOTHER VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE (ASSOCIATED WITH AN
ACTUAL COLD FRONT) COMES PLOWING TOWARDS THE AREA FROM THE NORTH.
THIS WILL LIKELY BRING ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TO AT LEAST
NORTHERN ZONES BY EARLY THIS EVENING (IF NOT A LITTLE
EARLIER)...WITH AGAIN A POTENTIAL FOR SOME SEVERE ACTIVITY TO BE
THROWN IN THE MIX.

EXPECT MORE TO COME WITH THE MAIN AFTERNOON FORECAST PACKAGE...BUT
FOR NOW I HAVE MAINLY ADJUSTED FORECAST SOME TO ACCOUNT FOR LOCALLY
HEAVY RAIN IN NORTHEASTERN ZONES. TO HWO IS ALSO BEING TWEAKED IN
RESPONSE TO THIS RISK. /BB/

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 319 AM CDT THU AUG 9 2012/

SHORT TERM...COMPLEX CONVECTIVE FORECAST FOR THIS SHORT TERM AS THE
EVOLVING MEAN LONG WAVE TROUGH WILL CONTAIN MULTIPLE S/WV'S WHICH
WILL DRIVE THE SENSIBLE WEATHER FOR EACH PERIOD. OVERALL...THE
MODELS ARE TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF IT ALL AND I FEEL GOOD ABOUT WHAT
I HAVE TO WORK WITH GIVEN THE COMPLEXITY OF THE SITUATION.

TO START...THE INITIAL S/WV IS OVER THE W/NW PART OF THE CWA AND IS
CURRENTLY BEGINNING TO GEN UP SOME SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY ACROSS THAT
AREA. LOOK FOR THIS TO EXPAND IN COVERAGE THROUGH EARLY/MID MORNING
ACROSS THE NW HALF OF THE CWA. AS LIFT FROM THIS FEATURE SHIFTS
E/SE...THE LOW LEVEL RESPONSE AND MOISTURE CONVERGENCE WILL FOLLOW
SUIT. I SEE THE CENTRAL AND SE HALF OF THE AREA GETTING SOMEWHAT OF
AN EARLY START TO THE CONVECTION. BEST PRECIP CHANCES FOR THIS AREA
LOOK TO BE LATE MORNING THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON. AS THIS
OCCURS...THE NW HALF WILL SEE A BREAK AND HAVE SOME TIME TO WARM UP
AND DESTABILIZE AHEAD OF THE NEXT S/WV (MORE ON THAT IN A BIT). FOR
THE SE HALF AND EASTERN PORTIONS...CONCERNING STRONG/SVR STORM
POTENTIAL. I'M NOT REAL HIGH ON THIS...MAINLY DUE TO THE EARLY START
OF ACTIVITY. HOWEVER...THERE WILL EXIST SOME ENHANCED MID LEVEL FLOW
ASSOCIATED WITH OUR S/WV ALONG WITH SOME MID LEVEL COOLING.
ADDITIONALLY...BETTER THAN AVG FORCING WILL EXIST AS WELL AND I CAN
SEE SOME STRONG STORMS WITH A COUPLE SVR CELLS MIXED IN.
AGAIN...THIS IS FOR THE SE HALF AND EASTERN PORTIONS FROM 11AM
THROUGH 4PM. MAIN RISK LOOKS TO BE FROM 40-60 MPH WINDS AND
LIGHTNING AS STORMS MOVE GENERALLY WEST TO EAST.

SHIFTING TO THE SECOND S/WV AND FOCUSING BACK TOWARD THE NW HALF OF
THE CWA FOR LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING. THIS PORTION OF THE CWA WILL
HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WARM INTO MID 90S. ADDITIONALLY...TEMPS
ALOFT WILL REMAIN COOLER THAN AVG AND PROMOTE FAIRLY STEEP LAPSE
RATES WITH VERTICAL TOTALS AROUND 28C. THIS 2ND S/WV WILL CONTAIN A
STRONGER MID LEVEL SPEED MAX ALONG WITH AN ASSOCIATED MID LEVEL DRY
PUNCH DIVING SE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. IT IS THIS PART OF THE
CWA WHERE I'M MORE CONCERNED WITH SVR STORMS BETWEEN 5 PM AND
MIDNIGHT. ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY LOOKS TO LINGER PAST MIDNIGHT AS
WELL...JUST LIKELY NOT STRONG. HAZARDS FROM THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE 60
MPH WINDS...QUARTER HAIL AND POTENTIALLY MORE INTENSE LIGHTNING. I
WILL CONSTRUCT GRAPHICS TO ILLUSTRATE EACH RISK ALONG WITH
SEGMENTING THE HWO TO FIT THE SITUATION. LASTLY...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN
WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY STORM.

ON TO FRI...THIS PERIOD IS A CHALLENGE AS WELL...BUT I'M FEELING
MORE CONFIDENT WITH THE MAJORITY OF THE ACTIVITY OCCURRING ACROSS
THE SOUTH HALF. THE MAIN ISSUE WITH THIS PERIOD IS TIMING. ALL
INDICATIONS ARE...ACTIVITY MAY BE AT THE START OF THE FRI
PERIOD...OR GET A QUICK START. FOR NOW...WILL NOT GO WITH SPECIFIC
TIMING ON POPS DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY. THE BEST DEEP MOISTURE LOOKS
TO BE ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-20 AS THE DRIER MID LEVEL AIR ASSOCIATED
WITH THE S/WV WILL LIKELY BE OVER THE NORTHERN CWA. ALSO...A MORE
PRONOUNCED NW FLOW WILL EXIST AND ANY STORMS SHOULD MOVE OFF TO THE
SE. AS FOR STRONG STORMS FRI...NOT REALLY EXPECTING MUCH AS THE ONLY
THING GOING FOR IT WOULD BE STRONGER OVERALL WINDS ALOFT. LAPSE
RATES WILL BE RATHER TAME AND INSTABILITY WILL BE LIMITED. AT THIS
POINT...I WOULD BE BEST TO NOT MENTION ANY RISK ON FRI AND SEE HOW
THINGS ARE SETUP AFTER WE DEAL WITH THESE FIRST TWO PERIODS. /CME/

LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH NEXT THURSDAY...BEHIND THE PASSAGE OF
FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT'S COLD FRONT...A DRIER AIRMASS WILL FILTER SOUTH
INTO THE REGION FOR THE WEEKEND.  WHILE THIS WILL RESULT IN SLIGHTLY
COOLER AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES...THE BIGGER STORY WILL
BE THE NOTICEABLY...AND MUCH APPRECIATED...LESS HUMID CONDITIONS
FELT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA AS DEW POINTS DROP FROM THE MID 70S
WE'VE SEEN THROUGH MUCH OF THE SUMMER...DOWN INTO THE LOW AND MIDDLE
60S.

AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES ARE CONCERNED FOR THE WEEKEND...AS STATED
ABOVE THEY'LL BE SLIGHTLY COOLER.  I ADJUSTED HIGHS UP A BIT ON
SATURDAY RESULTING IN THEIR RANGING FROM THE MID 80S TO LOWER 90S...
WHICH IS WARMER THAN MOS YET COOLER THAN THE MET GUIDANCE.  AFTER
TAKING A LOOK AT LOW LEVEL TEMPS FORECASTED OVER THE AREA DURING
THIS TIME AND COMPARING THEM WITH LOCAL CLIMATOLOGY...THIS UPWARDS
ADJUSTMENT MADE SENSE.  HIGHS WILL BE A TAD WARMER ON SUNDAY...BUT
STILL SLIGHTLY COOLER THAN THOSE FROM RECENT DAYS.  LOOK FOR LOWS
SATURDAY NIGHT TO FALL INTO THE LOW AND MIDDLE 60S...AND LOWS SUNDAY
NIGHT TO SLIP INTO THE MID 60S AND LOWER 70S.

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/

&&

.AVIATION...GREATEST AVIATION CONCERN IS THE ONGOING MVFR AND IFR
CONDS ACRS KGWO TO KGTR DUE TO TSRA/LOW CIGS. XPCT CONDS TO IMPROVE
BRIEFLY AT KGTR BY 1530Z WITH ADDITIONAL SCT TSRA THROUGH LATE MRNG
THRU AFTN. FOR CNTRL AND SRN TAF SITES...IT WILL BE MORE TRICKY AS
FAR AS TIMING. SCT TSRA XPCTED TO DVLP ACROSS REGION LATE MRNG AND
PERSIST THROUGH EVENING AS MID LVL DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH. CNTRL
AND SRN SITES SHOULD HAVE VFR PREVAIL BUT INTERMITTENT MVFR/IFR
CONDS PSBL THIS AFTN. LOW CIGS/BR OVRNGT SHOULD RESULT IN MIX OF
MVFR/VFR. SLY SFC WINDS WILL BE 6-12 KT WITH SOME HIGHER GUSTS THIS
AFTN. SOME GUSTS TO 20-30 KT PSBL INVOF STRONGER TSRA. STORM TOPS TO
FL450.
