449 PM CST SAT DEC 21 2013

.UPDATE...UPDATED TO EXPAND FLASH FLOOD WATCH.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 206 PM CST SAT DEC 21 2013/

CURRENTLY STORMS ARE GETTING THEIR ACT TOGETHER JUST TO THE
SOUTHWEST OF THE CWA..SO NOT MUCH TIME TO DISCUSS. LEADING
EDGE OF THE UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT IS SURGING INTO EAST TEXAS AND A
1000MB SURFACE LOW WAS JUST NOW ARKANSAS. TORNADO WATCH IN PLACE
FOR MOST OF THE MIDSOUTH COUNTIES ALONG AND EAST OF THE MS
RIVER...WITH STRONG BACKED WINDS CURRENTLY IN THE DELTA. SEEMS
VERY PROBABLE FOR A STRONG/SIGNIFICANT TORNADO TO DEVELOP LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING...AS MUCAPES MAY EXCEED 1500
J/KG. A WIND ADVISORY IS ALSO IN EFFECT TILL MIDNIGHT FOR THE AREA.

FURTHER WEST AND NORTH RAIN HAS BEEN HEAVY ON THE COLD SIDE OF THE
STALLED FRONT. LATEST RAIN AMOUNTS SHOW 4 TO 5 INCHES HAS ALREADY
FALLEN...WITH AN ADDITIONAL 2 TO 4 INCHES STILL POSSIBLE THROUGH
MIDNIGHT WHEN THE FLASHFLOOD WATCH EXPIRES. SOME REPORTS OF
FLOODING HAVE ALSO BEEN SENT TO THE OFFICE VIA SOCIAL MEDIA.

STORM IS EXPECTED TO LIFT OUT LATE TONIGHT WITH MID/UPPER LEVEL
DRY PUNCH MOVING INTO THE WESTERN COUNTIES. SOUTH WINDS WILL SHIFT
MORE SOUTHWEST TO WEST AND REMAIN BREEZY AS THE SURFACE LOW TRACKS
INTO THE MIDWEST. WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH BY MORNING HOWEVER. FOR
SUNDAY EXPECT MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS A CHANCE FOR SPRINKLES IN
THE EAST AND SOUTH AND TEMPERATURES REMAINING IN THE 40S AND 50S.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION SUNDAY NIGHT
WITH PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND TEMPERATURES FALLING TO FREEZING FOR
POINTS NORTH OF INTERSTATE FORTY.

HOLIDAY WEEK...LOOKS TO BE BELOW NORMAL AND DRY THROUGH THE
PERIOD...WITH THE COLDEST DAY EXPECTED ON CHRISTMAS EVE...WHERE THE
NORTHERN COUNTIES WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH FREEZING. CONDITIONS
WILL REMAIN COLD CHRISTMAS EVE NIGHT WITH A BRIEF WARM UP ON
CHRISTMAS DAY AND ON THURSDAY. A REINFORCING COLD FRONT IS
ANTICIPATED LATE THURSDAY WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER HIGHS FOR THE LAST
WEEKEND OF 2013.

JAB

AVIATION...

A COLD FRONT HAS STALLED JUST TO THE WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER. TO THE WEST OF THE FRONT TO INCLUDE KJBR...EXPECT NORTHEAST
WINDS TO PERSIST THROUGH THE EVENING WITH MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN
ALONG WITH IFR CIGS AND REDUCED VSBYS. RAIN AND STORMS SHOULD END
AROUND 03Z WITH A RETURN TO MVFR WRAP AROUND CLOUDS AND NORTHWEST
WINDS.

TO THE EAST OF THE FRONT...INCLUDING KMEM...KMKL...EXPECT A
CONTINUATION OF MVFR CIGS AND VICINITY THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL
THROUGH MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL CONVECTION SHOULD FIRE
ACROSS WEST TENNESSEE AND NORTHWEST MISSISSIPPI DURING THE MID TO
LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING WITH TEMPORARY REDUCTIONS IN HEAVY
THUNDERSTORMS ALONG WITH IFR CIGS THROUGH EARLY EVENING. AFTER 01Z
TO 03Z...PREVAILING THUNDERSTORMS CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH 06Z TO
07Z. CIGS SHOULD GO VFR LATER TONIGHT ALONG WITH NORTHWEST WINDS.

STORMS WILL HOLD OFF UNTIL LATER THIS EVENING AT KTUP WITH THE
POTENTIAL FOR A FEW SEVERE STORMS. RAIN AND STORMS WILL CLEAR KTUP
AFTER 09Z.
