What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Feb 10, 4:22 PM CST, 35 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 10, 4:22 PM CST, 35 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
422 PM CST SUN FEB 10 2013

.DISCUSSION...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...ACTIVE DAY ONGOING WITH A
FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNINGS AND AN UPTICK IN TORNADO WARNINGS.
THE MOST SEVERE ACTIVITY IS MOSTLY SOUTH OF I-20 WHERE THE BETTER
MOISTURE...INSTABILITY AND HELICITY IS LOCATED. THIS IS ALSO SOUTH
OF THE WARM FRONT WHICH IS ROUGHLY CUTTING ACROSS THE I-59 CORRIDOR
UP THROUGH CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI. STORMS ACROSS THE PINE BELT HAVE
DEVELOPED AND CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO AIR CHARACTERIZED BY 600-800
M2/S2 HELICITY VALUES. MODERATE RAIN WITH EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS IS
MOSTLY FOUND NORTH OF I-20. CONDITIONS ARE IMPROVING WEST OF THE MS
RIVER AS THE BULK OF THE RAIN HAS MOVED EAST OF THERE. THE COLD
FRONT IS STILL FURTHER WEST AND JUST TO THE EAST OF SHREVEPORT. THIS
ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO TRACK TO THE EAST THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT IN SHOWING THAT THE
FRONT WILL STALL AROUND SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI LATER TONIGHT. THIS
WILL HELP TO KEEP SOME CHANCE FOR SHOWERS THROUGH THE NIGHT ACROSS
THE FAR SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE PINE BELT REGION. CURRENT FLASH
FLOOD WATCH EXPIRES AT 00Z FOR SOME LOCATIONS. HAVE GONE AHEAD AND
LOCATED WHERE THE HEAVIEST RAIN IS FALLING NOW AND WILL CONTINUE TO
FALL THROUGH THE EVENING AND POTENTIALLY OVERNIGHT. SOME LOCATIONS
MAY GET TRIMMED THIS EVENING AS HEAVIEST RAIN SHIFTS SOUTH.
LOCATIONS SOUTH OF I-20 FROM ABOUT NATCHEZ TO PORTIONS OF THE I-59
CORRIDOR WILL REMAIN UNDER THE WATCH THROUGH 12Z WITH POTENTIAL FOR
1-2 INCHES ADDITIONAL WITH LOCALLY HIGHER.

THINKING REMAINS SIMILAR AS PREVIOUS FORECASTS IN THAT THE FRONT
WILL REMAIN STALLED ACROSS THE SOUTH THROUGH TUESDAY. A FEW
DISTURBANCES WILL MOVE ALONG THE FRONT BOTH MONDAY AND ESPECIALLY
TUESDAY. THE FIRST DISTURBANCE IS A RATHER SUBTLE SHORTWAVE BUT THIS
SHOULD BRING THE FIRST ROUND OF RAINFALL ESPECIALLY MONDAY AFTERNOON
FOR THE SOUTHERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE REGION. THE FAR NORTHERN DELTA
MAY BE THE DRIEST OF THE ENTIRE CWA FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. AN EVEN
STRONGER DISTURBANCE AND ASSOCIATED SFC LOW WILL TRACK ACROSS THE
REGION TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY EVENING...BRINGING THE LAST BOUT OF
RAIN(AND EVEN POTENTIAL FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS) TO THE REGION. WITH
1.2-1.5 INCH PW VALUES STILL PRESENT ACROSS THE MAINLY I-20 AND
SOUTH...THIS SHOULD EFFICIENTLY DELIVER AN ADDITIONAL 2-4 INCHES OF
RAIN THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THE BEST LOCATION TO SEE MOST OF THIS
HEAVIER RAIN WILL BE ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-20 AND AN EXTENSION TO THE
CURRENT FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED IN THESE LOCATIONS.
THE SFC LOW WILL MOVE ALONG SOUTH MS AND TRACK UP THROUGH ALABAMA
EARLY WEDNESDAY AS THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES ACROSS WESTERN TN AND
NORTHERN MS. SOME ADDITIONAL SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS UPPER TROUGH PASSAGE  BUT AMOUNTS SHOULD BE LIGHT ON WEDNESDAY
MORNING. THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY MUCH DRIER AND SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR
WED-THU. A STRONG SHORTWAVE TROUGH IN THE NORTHERN STREAM WILL DIG
SOUTHWARD THU-FRI AND SEND VERY CHILLY AIR INTO THE ARKLAMISS FOR
THE WEEKEND. SOME OF THE COLDEST TEMPERATURES OF THIS WINTER SEASON
ARE EXPECTED. /28/EC/

&&

.AVIATION...MVFR AND IFR CONDITIONS ONGOING TO THIS AFTERNOON AS
LARGE SWATCH OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH
THE REGION. THE MAIN AXIS OF RAIN IS NOW ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF THE
NATCHEZ TRACE AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN THIS REGION THROUGH THE
EVENING AND SLOW SHIFT SOUTH. MAIN TAF SITES AFFECTED THROUGH 12Z
FROM SHRA/TSRA WILL BE KMEI/KHBG/KPIB. KJAN AND KGTR WILL BE AFFECTED
THROUGH 02Z. VIS COULD BE REDUCED TO 1/4SM IN +TSRA AND CEILINGS WILL
GO BELOW 1KFT. CLEARING OF RAIN AT KGLH/KGWO BUT CLOUDS CONTINUE TO PLAGUE THE
REGION THROUGH THE NIGHT. /28/
