The radar

The Jackson/Brandon,MS radar (KDGX), 172 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 16:38 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Jackson, MS (KJAN), launched 12:00Z, 4.6 hours before the alert went out and 162 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

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 Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 14, 10:40 AM CDT, 56 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 14, 10:40 AM CDT, 56 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1040 AM CDT MON APR 14 2014

.DISCUSSION...CONVECTIVE COMPLEX CONTINUES TO BECOME LESS ORGANIZED
AS IT PUSHES TOWARD THE SOUTHERN BORDER OF THE CWA. THIS ACTIVITY
HAS BEEN MUCH LESS POTENT SINCE PUSHING SOUTH OF I-20 EARLIER THIS
MORNING...BUT IT HAS SPREAD A COLD POOL WELL SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA
NEVERTHELESS. THERE HAS BEEN NEWER DEVELOPMENT THROUGHOUT THE
MORNING ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS DELTA...WITH MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY
HEAVY RAIN TRAINING ACROSS THAT AREA. LOOKING BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST
A WARMER AND MORE UNSTABLE AIRMASS EXISTS ACROSS SW MISSISSIPPI
WESTWARD INTO CENTRAL LOUISIANA...WHERE DEWPOINTS ARE AROUND 70F AND
VISIBLE IMAGERY SHOWS SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER. RIGHT NOW THIS
KEEPS THE MAIN THREAT FOR SEVERE LIMITED TO SOUTHERN/WESTERN
PORTIONS OF THE CWA BUT SOUTHWESTERLY 850 MB FLOW...ALBEIT WEAKER
THAN OVERNIGHT...IS WORKING ON THIS COLD POOL AND WILL LIKELY ALLOW
THE WARM SECTOR TO EXPAND BACK INTO PORTIONS OF THE DELTA AND
WESTERN MS HEADING INTO THE AFTERNOON.

THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN THE WARM SECTOR AND THE COLD POOL WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE TO SERVE AS A FOCUS FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT THROUGHOUT THE DAY
TODAY. AN INCREASE IN CONVECTION IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AS THE
NEXT SHORTWAVE PIVOTS ACROSS THE LOWER MS RIVER VALLEY. THIS WILL BE
THE TIME FRAME WITH THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE CONVECTION.

WITH RESPECT TO THE FLOODING SITUATION...ABOUT 1 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN
FELL ALONG AND NORTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR OVERNIGHT...WITH SOME
REPORTS OF OVER 4 INCHES OVER WEST CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI. THIS HAS LED
TO FLASH FLOODING ACROSS PORTIONS OF WARREN...MADISON...HINDS...AND
RANKIN COUNTIES. OUR BEST AVAILABLE GUIDANCE SUGGESTS ANOTHER 1-2
INCHES OF RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS. THIS COULD OBVIOUSLY FURTHER AGITATE THE CURRENT
FLOODING SITUATION...AND WE WILL MAINTAIN THE CURRENT FLASH FLOOD
WATCH CONFIGURATION.

UPDATED PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN SENT OUT. /DL/

&&

.AVIATION...CIGS AND VSBY WILL VARY SIGNIFICANTLY THROUGH 06Z AS
STORMS PASS ACROSS THE TAF SITES. WILL NEED TO AMEND FREQUENTLY TO
HANDLE MESOSCALE WIND SHIFTS AND STORMS. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
THROUGH THE SITES STARTING LATE THIS AFTERNOON AT KGLH AND CLEARING
KHBG AROUND 06Z. WINDS WILL SHIFT NORTHWEST AND GUST TO 25-35 KT
AFTER THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. /SW/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED AT 445 AM CDT MON APR 14 2014/
SHORT TERM...THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...
THE MUCH-DISCUSSED COLD FRONT WILL COME BLASTING SOUTHEAST THROUGH
THE REGION FROM LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING...WITH
TEMPERATURES FALLING OFF SHARPLY BEHIND THE BOUNDARY AND WINDS
KICKING UP A GOOD DEAL FROM THE NORTHWEST. IT IS POSSIBLE A WIND
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED LATER BUT WITH ALL THE ACTIVITY THIS MORNING
WILL DEFER TO LATER SHIFTS TO ISSUE THIS IF NEEDED. TEMPERATURES BY
7 TO 8 AM TUESDAY WILL RANGE FROM THE CHILLY UPPER 30S NORTHWEST TO
MID 40S SOUTHEAST WITH PLENTY OF WIND TO CREATE A WIND CHILL.
FORTUNATELY NO FROST IS ANTICIPATED TONIGHT DUE TO STRONG WINDS.

FOR TOMORROW MOST OF THE CLOUDS AND ANY LINGERING LIGHT RAIN WILL
QUICKLY EXIT EAST INTO THE ALABAMA AFTER SUNRISE BUT EXPECT SOME
PATCHY COLD AIR STRATOCUMULUS CLOUDS IN THE AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL BE
GUSTY THROUGHOUT THE DAY WITH HIGHS PROBABLY NOT HITTING 60 DEGREES
IN ANY AREAS...WHICH IS SOME 15 TO 20 DEGREES BELOW AVERAGE. WINDS
WILL DIE OFF TOMORROW NIGHT UNDER CLEAR SKIES WHICH SHOULD ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO GENERALLY BOTTOM-OUT IN A RANGE FROM THE UPPER 20S
TO LOWER 30S BY DAWN WEDNESDAY. OF COURSE THIS WILL MEAN AN
UNSEASONABLY LATE FREEZE AND THIS WILL BE MENTIONED IN THE HWO AND
GRAPHICS. /BB/

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...FIRST PART OF THE PERIOD WILL
BE A TRANSITION TIME AS ZONAL FLOW BECOMES INCREASINGLY SOUTHWEST.
JET ENERGY DIVING INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST WILL ALLOW A MID LEVEL
TROF TO DIG OVER THE ROCKIES AND INTO THE PLAINS BY THURSDAY.
WARM/MOIST  ADVECTION LOOKS TO MOISTEN THE REGION ENOUGH FOR SHOWERS
TO BEGIN BREAKING OUT BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON AS A COLD FRONT PULLS
INTO THE MID MS VALLEY.

GFS/ECMWF DIVERGE IN THEIR SOLUTIONS FROM HERE. ECMWF RESOLVES A
POTENT SRN STREAM MID LEVEL WAVE THAT GENERATES A LARGE CONVECTIVE
MASS OVER THE NORTHERN GULF AND PUSHES EAST INTO FL BY SATURDAY.
THIS WOULD EFFECTIVELY CUT OFF THE GULF FOR ANY APPRECIABLE
DEVELOPMENT FURTHER NORTH. AM SOMEWHAT LEARY OF THIS SOLUTION.

WHILE THE GFS ALSO RESOLVES A SOUTHERN STREAM PIECE OF ENERGY THAT
IGNITES CONVECTION ALONG THE GULF COAST FRIDAY...IT KEEPS THE MID MS
VALLEY WAVE DOMINANT AND STRONG ENOUGH TO PUSH A COLD FRONT THROUGH
FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY.

SOUTHERN STREAM ENERGY...IMMEDIATELY ON THE HEELS OF EXITING
SYSTEM...LOOKS TO MAKE A PASS SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT...BUT MOISTURE
LOOKS SOMEWHAT LIMITED AS LOWER LEVELS WILL NOT HAVE HAD ENOUGH TIME
TO RECOVER FROM THE SCOURING OF THE PREVIOUS SYSTEM./26/
