What 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 Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 11, 3:20 PM CDT, 35 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 11, 3:20 PM CDT, 35 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
320 PM CDT MON JUN 11 2012

.DISCUSSION...

A SEVERE FORWARD PROPAGATING MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM (MCS)
CURRENTLY ACROSS NORTHWEST TENNESSEE INTO EASTERN ARKANSAS WILL
CONTINUE TO RACE SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THIS LINE HAS HAD A HISTORY OF WIND
DAMAGE AND THE PRE-CONVECTIVE ENVIRONMENT REMAIN FAVORABLE FOR
CONTINUED WIND DAMAGE WITH MLCAPES IN EXCESS OF 4000 J/KG. THIS
MCS CONTINUES TO MOVE ALONG THE NORTHEAST PERIPHERY OF STRONGER
CAPPING/EML OVER THE ARKLATEX REGION. THIS LINE OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD MOVE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST
AREA THROUGH THE EVENING.

LATER TONIGHT...THE FORECAST BECOMES MORE UNCERTAIN AS THE
ATMOSPHERE WILL INITIALLY BE WORKED OVER FROM THIS AFTERNOONS MCS.
THE CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY SLOWS QUITE A BIT ACROSS NORTH-
CENTRAL ARKANSAS AND THIS AREA MAY BE PRIMED FOR REDEVELOPMENT
LATER THIS EVENING...WITH THE ATMOSPHERE POTENTIALLY RELOADING
ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA. LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE
HINTS AT THIS OCCURENCE...BUT TIMING CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM AS
LATEST HRRR IS FASTER WITH MOST CONVECTION PRIOR TO 06Z AND ALL
OTHER MODEL GUIDANCE NOW SLOWER AND LINGERING CONVECTION THROUGH
THE NIGHT OVER THESE LOCATIONS. PLAN TO CARRY LIKELY POPS OVER THE
SOUTH AND WEST AFTER 06Z AND WILL MAINTAIN A SEVERE THREAT FOR
DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.

OVERNIGHT ACTIVITY SHOULD WANE LATE TONIGHT WITH SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORM REDEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE ALONG A SOUTHWARD MOVING COLD
FRONT ALONG THE I-40 CORRIDOR BY MID MORNING. THIS FRONT WILL
CONTINUE TO DROP SOUTH THROUGH EASTERN ARKANSAS AND NORTHERN
MISSISSIPPI BY AFTERNOON WITH THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY BECOMING MORE
NUMEROUS IN COVERAGE. THE ATMOSPHERE WILL AGAIN DESTABILIZE OVER
THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA WITH STRONG TO POTENTIALLY SEVERE
STORMS AGAIN POSSIBLE.

THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE MID SOUTH BY TUESDAY NIGHT
WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE AREA. THE FRONT
SHOULD STALL ACROSS CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI AS UPPER LEVEL HEIGHTS
RISE. DRY AND VERY WARM WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED WEDNESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY MORNING. THE FRONT WILL RETURN BACK TO THE NORTH AS A WARM
FRONT BY FRIDAY ALLOWING FOR A DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE TO ADVANCE
BACK INTO THE MID SOUTH. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
AGAIN BE POSSIBLE DURING PEAK HEATING ON BOTH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
A DRIER AIRMASS WILL WORK INTO THE AREA BY SUNDAY HELPING TO LIMIT
DIURNAL CONVECTION. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN SEASONALLY WARM WITH
INCREASING HUMIDITY LEVELS THROUGH THE END OF THE EXTENDED
FORECAST PERIOD.

.AVIATION...

18Z TAF SET

CONVECTIVE COMPLEX IS SET TO SWEEP THROUGH THE MIDSOUTH THIS
AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. THIS IS CORROBORATED WELL BY THE
LATEST HRRR RUN. HAVE TIMED TEMPO GROUPS AT ALL SITES. EXPECT A
FEW QUIET HOURS AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE FIRST ROUND OF TSRAS.
EXPECT REDEVELOPMENT TO OCCUR OVERNIGHT AS THE FRONT MOVES INTO
THE REGION. KEPT A VCTS GOING FOR NOW SINCE IT IS DIFFICULT TO
TIME THIS MESOSCALE ACTIVITY BEYOND A FEW HOURS. EXPECT SSW WINDS
AT 8-10 KTS THIS AFTERNOON. AS THE COMPLEX MOVES THROUGH WINDS
SHOULD SHARPLY SHIFT TO THE NORTH AND GUST. ADDED A WIND GROUP TO
KJBR IN ANTICIPATION OF THIS. NOT CONFIDENT ENOUGH AT THE OTHER
3 SITES TO ADD THIS YET. EXPECT WINDS TO BACK AFTER THE COMPLEX
MOVES THROUGH AND THEN EVENTUALLY RETURN TO LIGHT SOUTHERLY
OVERNIGHT. THE FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH EARLY TUESDAY AND WINDS
WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTH AT 8-10 KTS.
