AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1215 PM CDT SAT MAR 23 2013

...SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

.UPDATE...MORNING JAN SOUNDING SHOWED A STRONG CAP AT 700MB THAT HAS
LIMITED CONVECTION SO FAR THIS MORNING. AN 18Z RAOB WILL BE
CONDUCTED TO FURTHER ASSESS THE CAP AND CONVECTION POTENTIAL THIS
AFTERNOON. OTHER PERHAPS A LITTLE LATER START THAN EARLIER
ANTICIPATED...NOT A WHOLE LOT HAS CHANGED WITH EXPECTATIONS OF THE
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HIRES MODELS
STILL SHOW INCREASING WAA AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING CLOSED LOW OVER
THE PLAINS THAT WILL SUPPORT DEVELOP OF A SURFACE LOW LATER THIS
AFTERNOON THAT WILL TRACK EAST NORTHEAST ACROSS OUR CWA. SURFACE
ANALYSIS ALREADY SHOWS LOWER 60 DEWPOINTS SURGING NORTH INTO CENTRAL
MS LAST HOUR. LOCAL RADARS ARE BECOMING ACTIVE WITH CONVECTION
BREAKING OUT IN THE NORTHWEST ACROSS THE DELTA AND IN THE SOUTH
ALONG THE HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR. INITIALLY STORMS SHOULD REMAIN
ELEVATED AND PRODUCE A HAIL THREAT THEN AS THE AFTERNOON GOES ON AND
CONVECTION DEEPENS MORE SURFACE BASED STORMS ARE EXPECTED. HAIL AND
WIND WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS BUT A TORNADO OR TWO WILL BE POSSIBLE
AS WELL ESPECIALLY SOUTHEAST OF A LINE FROM BROOKHAVEN TO MERIDIAN
LATE AFTER AND EVENING. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL OF TWO TO THREE INCHES
WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. TWO TO THREE
INCHES HAS ALREADY FALLEN SINCE EARLY FRIDAY ACROSS THE HIGHWAY 82
CORRIDOR AND A LITTLE SOUTH OF THERE. HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD
WATCH FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING GENERALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 20. THE MAIN THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER SHOULD END AROUND
MIDNIGHT AS THE INITIAL SURFACE LOW SHIFTS EAST OF THE AREA. THE
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL SWING EAST OVER THE MID MS VALLEY SUNDAY
SUPPORTING A SECOND SURFACE LOW AND STRONG COLD FRONT THAT WILL
BRING VERY WINDY CONDITIONS ACROSS OUR CWA SUNDAY. /22/

&&

.AVIATION...MIDLEVEL CAP HAS LIMITED SHOWER COVERAGE FOR THIS
MORNING. PATCHY FOG IS LIFTING ACROSS THE REGION. SOME SHOWERS WERE
OCCURRING ALONG THE HIGHWAY 82 CORRIDOR. OTHERWISE IFR/MVFR CIGS WAS
NOTED ACROSS THE REGION. EXPECT THESE CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE AS
ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS COMES IN FOR THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS A STRONG STORM SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS THE
REGION. WINDS WILL BE VARIABLE AT 5 TO 10 KNOTS WITH HIGHER GUSTS
NEAR STRONG STORMS FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. SOME LARGE HAIL
WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. WILL PUT IN TAFS WHEN HAIL BECOMES IMMINENT
IN THE SHORT TERM(A FEW HOURS IN ADVANCE).  IT WILL BE WINDY  AND
DRY ESP AROUND THE DELTA REGION FOR SUNDAY FROM THE NORTHWEST AT 15
TO 25 KNOTS./17/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 750 AM CDT SAT MAR 23 2013/

UPDATE...SOME PATCHY DENSE FOG WAS NOTED ACROSS THE REGION ON MDOT
CAMERA SITES. SO HAVE PUT IN PATCHY DENSE FOG FOR THE ARKLAMISS
UNTIL MID-LATE MORNING./17/

/PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...358 AM CDT SAT MAR 23 2013

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...ARM FRONT POSITIONED FROM
CNTRL LA TO NE LA NEWD INTO THE DELTA REGION OF MS. AN ELEVATED WARM
FRONT AND ELEVATED ISENTROPIC LIFT PRODUCING HEALTHY STORMS ACROSS
NCNTRL MS ARE FORECAST TO WEAKEN WITH TIME DURING THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS BEFORE ISENTROPIC FORCING BEGINS TO STRENGTHEN FROM THE SOUTH
BY EARLY AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. ALTHOUGH DISCREPANCIES
CONTINUE...MODELS GENERALLY AGREE ON INCREASING FORCING THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. UPPER FLOW BACKS AHEAD OF A DIGGING UPPER
WAVE...REFLECTED AT LOWER LEVELS BY AN APPROACHING 850 MB TROUGH THAT
PIVOTS INTO THE REGION AND AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW FORECAST TO
PIVOT INTO SWRN ZONES AROUND 23/00Z. THE GFS IS CURRENTLY MORE
INVASIVE IN LIFTING THE SURFACE LOW AS FAR N AS THE I-20 CORRIDOR IN
ERN MS WHILE THE EURO KEEP THE SURFACE LOW IN THE VICINITY OF HIGHWAY
84 ACROSS SERN MS. THE EVENTUAL EVOLUTION OF THE LOW TRACK WILL
DETERMINE THE NWD EXTENT OF THE BETTER SURFACE BASED CAPE AND HIGHER
0-1 KM SHEAR FOR THE BETTER TORNADO RISK. THE WARM FRONT CURRENTLY
POSITIONED ACROSS THE REGION IS FORECAST TO PIVOT SLOWLY SWD EARLY
TODAY...DEWPOINTS GRADUALLY INCREASING TO ITS SOUTH DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING SURFACE LOW.
ALTHOUGH BOTH SURFACE BASED AND ELEVATED CAPE WILL BE MAXIMIZED ALONG
AND S OF THE BOUNDARY AND SURFACE LOW TRACK...ELEVATED CAPE AND 850
MB DEWPOINTS WILL REMAIN SUFFICIENT TO WARRANT A RISK OF SEVERE
STORMS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA...PARTICULARLY WITH INTENSE DEEP LAYER
SHEAR FORECAST AT AROUND 70 KTS FOR A LARGE PORTION OF THE AREA. BOTH
THE GFS AND EURO ALSO DEVELOP A JET MAX OVER THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING THAT IS ACCOMPANIED BY A REGION OF STRONG UPPER
DIV...NOTICEABLY STRONGER AND FARTHER N ON THE GFS. WE WILL CONTINUE
THE RISK OF SEVERE STORMS FOR ALL OF THE FORECAST AREA TODAY AND THIS
EVENING. IN DEFERENCE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF A MORE NWD PUNCH OF
SURFACE MOISTURE AND SHEAR THE BETTER POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE
STORMS...INCLUDING TORNADOES...WILL BE CONTINUED ALONG AND S OF THE
I-20 CORRIDOR WITH THE CONTINUED CHANCE OF PRIMARILY LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS FOR AREAS NORTH OF I-20. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES
FORECAST FROM 1.4-1.7 INCHES TODAY INDICATE THE CONTINUING POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY RAINFALL FOR ALL AREAS TODAY INTO THE EVENING HOURS.

THE RISK OF SEVERE STORMS WILL GENERALLY END BY MIDNIGHT WHEN THE
SURFACE LOW REACHES THE EAST MS BORDER. RAIN WILL DIMINISH
SIGNIFICANTLY BY SUNRISE SUNDAY WITH W/NW SURFACE/850 MB FLOW IN
PLACE BY 24/12Z. A STRONG SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT IS FORECAST TO
THE REAR OF THE SURFACE LOW EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. SUNDAY WILL BE A
WINDY DAY AND A WIND ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED.

WITH A COUPLE OF WAVES NOTED UPSTREAM ON SATELLITE PIX AND UPPER
DIVERGENCE AND ISENTROPIC LIFT FORECAST TO DEVELOP IN DEEPENING
MOISTURE...RAIN CHANCES HAVE BEEN INCREASED OVER MOS POPS FOR TODAY.
TEMPERATURES FOR TODAY WILL BE DIFFICULT...AS THE EVOLUTION OF THE
WARM FRONTAL MOVEMENT TODAY AND THE DEGREE OF WARMING THAT DEVELOPS
S OF THE BOUNDARY IN INCREASING LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL STRONGLY
INFLUENCE READINGS. HAVE LOWERED TEMPS OVER NRN AND CENTRAL ZONES
FROM MOS NUMBERS. HOWEVER TEMPS MAY EASILY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED LATER
THIS MORNING.

LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...THINGS QUIET DOWN IN THE LONG
TERM AS STRONG HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE AREA. MONDAY WILL BE A
COOL DRY DAY AS STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION AND NORTHWESTERLY FLOW
PREVAIL UNDER MAINLY CLEAR SKIES. A COOL NIGHT IS ON TAP MONDAY
NIGHT WITH LOWS FALLING TO AROUND 30 DEGREES ACROSS MOST OF
THE AREA. LITTLE WILL CHANGE ON TUESDAY AS STRONG SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE RIDGING CONTINUES ALONG WITH NORTHWEST FLOW. THE SURFACE
HIGH WILL MOVE OVER THE AREA BY TUESDAY NIGHT AND THIS WILL ALLOW
FOR THE WINDS TO BECOME CALM WITH STRONG RADIATIONAL COOLING
EXPECTED. LOWS WILL ONCE AGAIN FALL TO AROUND 30 DEGREES.

THE SURFACE HIGH WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT TO THE EAST OF THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY AND WITH SLIGHTLY WARMER HIGH TEMPS AROUND 60 UNDER
CONTINUED MAINLY CLEAR SKIES. THE SURFACE HIGH WILL SHIFT EAST BY
THURSDAY AND THIS WILL ALLOW SOUTHERLY FLOW AND WARMER TEMPS TO
PREVAIL ACROSS THE AREA. MOISTURE WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE AREA ON
FRIDAY WITH INCREASING CHANCES FOR SHOWERS FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY
ALONG WITH WARMER TEMPERATURES. STUCK PRETTY CLOSE TO GUIDANCE TEMPS
THROUGH THE PERIOD...BUT DID CUT BELOW GUIDANCE LOWS A BIT IN THE
USUAL COOLER LOCATIONS MONDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT./15/
