Area forecast discussion, May 30, 12:38 PM CDT, 2 hours 55 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
1238 PM CDT WED MAY 30 2012

.UPDATE...
AFTER COORDINATION WITH SPC... SEVERE WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR
EAST CENTRAL AR AND MUCH OF NORTH MS. RADAR SHOWED A STRONG TO
SEVERE LINE LIFTING INTO EAST CENTRAL AR...RIDING ALONG AN OLD
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AND ORGANIZED BY SOUTHERN MO/SOUTHERN IL SHORTWAVE.

OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THAT DROPPED INTO WEST TN EARLIER THIS MORNING
HAS LED A SLIGHTLY MORE STABLE AIRMASS...BUT A FEW STRONG STORMS
WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE MEMPHIS AREA.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1223 PM CDT WED MAY 30 2012/

UPDATE...
UPDATED FOR 18Z AVIATION DISCUSSION

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1025 AM CDT WED MAY 30 2012/

UPDATE...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUED OVER NORTHEAST AR AT MIDMORNING.
OVERALL A DECREASING INTENSITY TREND WAS SHOWN BY RADAR...THOUGH A
FEW STRONGER CELLS WERE NOTED OVER NORTH CENTRAL AR. THE STORMS
HAD FORMED ON THE NOSE OF A LOW LEVEL THETA E RIDGE OVER SOUTHERN
AR... AND WERE AIDED BY A SHORTWAVE TROF EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY...LIFTING EAST THROUGH SOUTHERN MO.

FORECAST WAS RECENTLY UPDATED TO LOWER TEMPS OVER NORTHEAST AR AND
PORTIONS OF WEST TN...WHERE AFTERNOON TEMPS WILL BE AFFECTED BY
THE COLD POOL FROM THIS MORNING/S STORMS. OTHER UPDATES INCLUDED A
BUMP IN POPS INTO NORTHWEST TN... WHERE OUTFLOW SHOULD STALL NEAR
PEAK AFTERNOON SURFACE HEATING.

UPDATE...

UPDATED FOR THE 12Z AVIATION DISCUSSION.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 430 AM CDT WED MAY 30 2012/

DISCUSSION...FORECAST FOCUS ON TEMPS AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES
THROUGH THE PERIOD.

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.

AREAS OF FOG HAVE DEVELOPED EARLY THIS MORNING ACROSS PORTIONS OF
WEST TENNESSEE AND NORTHEAST MISSISSIPPI WHERE TEMPERATURES HAVE
FALLEN INTO THE LOW 60S. FOG SHOULD BURN OFF QUICKLY THIS MORNING
UNDER CLEAR SKIES.

ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO THE DECAYING MCS OVER EASTERN OK...SWRN
MO...WRN AR...AND NERN TX. SYNOPTIC SCALE MODELS HAVE FAILED RATHER
MISERABLY IN THEIR DEPICTION OF THIS MCS IN THE 06Z-12Z TIME FRAME
HAVING IT DISPLACED MUCH TOO FAR NORTH. ADDITIONAL SCATTERED
STORMS HAVE ALSO FIRED RECENTLY ACROSS CENTRAL AR. MESOSCALE
MODELS SUCH AS THE HRRR HAVE PERFORMED MUCH BETTER AND WILL FOLLOW
THOSE FOR CONVECTIVE TRENDS TODAY. THAT BEING SAID...THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS MCS IS EXPECTED TO DIVE SOUTHEAST INTO LOUISIANA THIS
MORNING. ITS RESIDUAL OUTFLOW BOUNDARY WILL SLOWLY PROGRESS
EAST/NORTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE MORNING INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON.
AN UNCAPPED...MODERATELY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WILL SUPPORT THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SOME STORMS ALONG THIS BOUNDARY ACROSS ERN
AR...SWRN TN...NWRN MS THIS AFTERNOON. BUMPED UP POPS INTO THE
30-40 PCT RANGE THERE WITH DIMINISHING POPS TO THE EAST. LARGE
DEW POINT DEPRESSIONS AT THE SURFACE AS TEMPERATURES RISE AGAIN
INTO THE LOW 90S MAY LEAD TO GUSTY WINDS WITH SOME OF THESE
STORMS.

LOW PRESSURE WILL BE FORMING OVER OKLAHOMA TONIGHT AND BEGIN TO
TRACK NORTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI THURSDAY MORNING. ROBUST
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED AGAIN TODAY ACROSS OKLAHOMA
WHICH WILL GROW INTO ANOTHER MCS TONIGHT. IT REMAINS UNCLEAR HOW
FAR EAST THIS MCS WILL TRACK OVERNIGHT...SOME INDICATIONS SUGGEST
IT MAY REACH EASTERN ARKANSAS LATE. THEREFORE...KEPT MODERATE CHC
POPS ACROSS THAT REGION.

WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH THURSDAY
AS MID LEVEL HEIGHT FALLS OVERSPREAD A WARM/MOIST WARM SECTOR.
WHILE WIND SHEAR REMAINS LOW AT LEAST EARLY...MODERATELY UNSTABLE
CONDITIONS WILL SUPPORT STORM CLUSTERS CAPABLE OF WIND DAMAGE. THE
RISK OF SEVERE WILL INCREASE BY LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS
THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN AREAS AS THE MID LEVEL FLOW STRENGTHENS
JUST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. MAY SEE MESSY CLUSTERS OF THUNDERSTORMS
EVENTUALLY FORM A SQUALL LINE EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AFTER
21Z-00Z WITH ATTENDANT WIND DAMAGE THREAT. LOW LEVEL FLOW/VEERING
DOES NOT APPEAR SUPPORTIVE FOR TORNADIC DEVELOPMENT SO WILL REMOVE
THAT THREAT FROM THE HWO.

GFS STILL LAGS BACK WITH THE COLD FRONT...WITH ALL OTHER LARGE
SCALE MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT DRYING THINGS OUT BY 12Z FRIDAY.
COOLER AND DRIER AIR WILL BRING A REFRESHING FRIDAY WITH HIGHS
ONLY IN THE LOW TO MID 70S AND LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT IN THE UPPER
40S/MID 50S.

LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

WAA RETURNS FOR THE WEEKEND AS A BUILDING RIDGE OVER THE PLAINS
BEGINS TO BUILD EASTWARD. HOWEVER...MODELS HAVE SHIFTED THE RIDGE
AXIS A BIT WESTWARD WITH RECENT RUNS AND NOW KEEPS THE MIDSOUTH IN
A NORTHWEST FLOW WITH A PESKY WEAK FRONT REMAINING IN PLACE.
THUS...SMALL CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED FOR
SUNDAY AND BEYOND. TEMPERATURES STILL LOOK WARM...UPPER 80S TO
LOWER 90S.

.AVIATION...

18Z TAF CYCLE

STRENGTHENING LINE OF CONVECTION BETWEEN MEM AND LZK WILL CONTINUE
TO TRACK EAST NORTHEAST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. MAIN THREAT FOR THE
STRONGEST CONVECTION WILL RIDE ALONG I-40 AND POINTS SOUTH. HAVE
PLACED TEMPO FOR THUNDER IN AT MEM AND LATER FOR TUP AS CONVECTION
WILL LIKELY TRACK ACROSS ALL OF NORTH MISSISSIPPI THROUGH THE EARLY
EVENING HOURS. HEAVIEST THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL DROP CONDITIONS
DOWN TO MVFR...OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE THE RULE. JBR
INITIALLY WILL SEE VCTS AND TEMPO SHOWERS...WHILE MORE STABLE AIR
WILL LIKELY KEEP MKL OUT OF THE THREAT. NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS
IN THE 10-20 KT RANGE WILL CONTINUE AT MEM...MKL...AND JBR AND
EVENTUALLY TUP WILL SEE A NORTH WIND SHIFT AHEAD OF THE LINE OF
STORMS.

STORMS WILL DIMINISH AND SKIES WILL CLEAR FROM WEST TO EAST BEHIND
THE LINE...WITH LIGHT WINDS BY EARLY EVENING. HOWEVER CENTRAL
PLAINS CONVECTION AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT IS LIKELY TO MOVE IN AT
THE END OF THE PERIOD WITH THE NEXT THREAT FOR STORMS.
