AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1043 AM CDT SUN JUN 22 2014

.UPDATE...DENSE CONVECTIVE DEBRIS SHIELD SHOWING UP IN VISIBLE
IMAGERY THIS MORNING OVER THE FORECAST AREA WITH SOME THINNING NOTED
IN LAST COOUPLE OF HOURS. THIS HAS SLOWED THE ONSET OF HEATING AND
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT. KJAN 12Z SOUNDING LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO
YESTERDAY ALTHOUGH WINDS ALOFT ARE SOMEWHAT STRONGER TODAY. THIS
COULD ALLOW CONVECTIVE UPDRAFTS TO BE A LITTLE MORE ROBUST AND
COUPLED WITH RISK CATEGORY IN THE WET MICROBURST CHECKLIST...SOME
INCREASED CHANCE OF A FEW PULSE SEVERE STORMS TODAY. ONLY SMALL
CHANGES ANTICIPATED WITH THE GRIDS.

&&

.AVIATION...EXPECT GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THIS EVENING
ALTHOUGH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
ACROSS THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON. ISOLATED STRONGER STORMS WILL
HAVE POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY WINDS...FREQUENT LIGHTNING AND BRIEF BUT
MAJOR TURBULENCE IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY. SOME BRIEF IFR
CONDITIONS ALSO POSSIBLE IN THE HEAVIEST OF DOWNPOURS. WINDS WILL BE
LIGHT FROM THE WEST TO NORTHWEST IN GENERAL. MOST OF THE
PRECIPITATION WILL DIMINISH QUICKLY THIS EVENING WITH POCKETS OF
MVFR TO LOCALLY IFR SHALLOW FOG POSSIBLE BY DAWN MONDAY IN AREAS
THAT RECEIVE CONSIDERABLE DOWNPOURS TODAY. /BB/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 345 AM CDT SUN JUN 22 2014/

DISCUSSION...TODAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...A BETTER COVERAGE OF
CONVECTION IS FORECAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BOTH TODAY AND
MONDAY AS WEAK TROUGHING SETS UP OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER
VALLEY DURING THE PERIOD.  THIS INCREASE IN CONVECTION AND CLOUD
COVER WILL ALSO HELP KEEP AFTERNOON HIGHS A LITTLE LOWER...UPPER 80S
TO LOWER 90S...COMPARED TO PREVIOUS DAYS.  HOWEVER...THE HUMID
CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST AS DEW POINTS CONTINUE TO RANGE FROM THE
UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S.

CONVECTION WILL OVERALL REMAIN DIURNALLY DRIVEN...IN ADDITION TO
DEVELOPING ALONG LINGERING AND PROPAGATING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES BOTH
TODAY AND MONDAY AFTERNOON.  MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT
OVERALL FLOW...SHEAR...AND LAPSE RATES WILL REMAIN MEAGER AT BEST
THROUGH THE PERIOD. INSTABILITY REMAINS SUFFICIENT EACH AFTERNOON AND
A STORM OR TWO BRIEFLY REACHING SEVERE LIMITS ISN'T OUT OF THE
QUESTION...BUT THIS POTENTIAL CURRENLTY LOOKS QUITE LOW. THUS...I'LL
NOT MENTION IT IN THE HWO.

HOWEVER...IF MORNING SOUNDINGS AND ANALYSIS YIELDS A HIGH POTENTIAL
FOR WET MICROBURSTS...SEVERE WORDING COULD BE INTRODUCED INTO THE
HWO. THAT SAID...GUSTY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH STORMS TODAY AND
MONDAY...AND TO A LESSER EXTENT SMALL HAIL. HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE ALSO
EXPECTED WITH ANY CONVECTION AS PRECIPITABLE H2O VALUES WILL
GENERALLY SIT BETWEEN 1.75-2.00 INCHES. /19/

TUESDAY THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY...DURING THE MIDDLE PORTION OF THE
WEEK...UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL REMAIN RELATIVELY WEAK AND PRIMARILY
ZONAL. A WEAK SURFACE HIGH WILL REMAIN SITUATED OVER THE NORTHERN
GULF...THOUGH THIS FEATURE IS UNLIKELY TO DO MUCH TO DISCOURAGE THE
SUMMERTIME DIURNAL CONVECTIVE CYCLE WHICH IS FIRMLY ENTRENCHED ACROSS
THE AREA. 00Z GFS/ECMWF RUNS DEPICT A SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TOWARD THE MID MS VALLEY WED INTO THURS...WHICH
WOULD LIKELY SERVE TO ENHANCE PRECIP COVERAGE DURING THAT TIME FRAME.
POPS WERE TRENDED TOWARD ECMWF OUTPUT...WHICH SEEMED TO HAVE A
BETTER GRASP OF THESE FEATURES.

FROM THE END OF THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND GUIDANCE...ESPECIALLY THE
ECWMF...INDICATES BUILDING MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGING. THIS WOULD
SUGGEST A DECREASE IN DAILY CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY BACK TO MORE
SEASONABLE LEVELS. ISOLATED PRECIPITATION WOULD STILL BE AROUND...
BUT WITH UPPER FLOW REMAINING WEAK AND MID LEVEL TEMPS WARMING UP
UNDER THE RIDGE...MUCH OF THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY WOULD BE
SUPPRESSED. /DL/
