AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
310 PM CDT SUN AUG 10 2014

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...CONVECTION HAS BEEN
SLOWER TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION TODAY...BUT A GRADUAL PEPPERING
IS BEGINNING TO OCCUR OVER THE DELTA REGION. SEE NO REASON WHY
COVERAGE WILL NOT CONTINUE TO INCREASE AS WE HEAD INTO THE LATE
AFTERNOON.

AMPLIFYING MID/UPPER LEVEL PATTERN STILL LOOKS TO ALLOW SPRAWLING
RIDGE...CURRENTLY OVER THE NORTHERN GULF INTO THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS...TO SHIFT WEST AND TROFFINESS TO OCCUR OVER THE EAST. THIS
WILL ALLOW A SURGE OF DRIER AIR TO APPROACH THE AREA MONDAY/MONDAY
NIGHT.

WHILE MAJORITY OF CONVECTION LOOKS TO WANE DURING THE EVENING
TONIGHT...APPROACHING SURFACE BOUNDARY LOOKS TO SPARK A FEW STORMS
OVER THE DELTA BY MONDAY MORNING. CONVERGENCE ALONG THE BOUNDARY
WILL ALLOW FOR AN EARLY START TO CONVECTION MONDAY...BUT IT IS NOT
UNTIL AFTERNOON THAT UPDRAFTS LOOK TO BECOME MORE ROBUST. VERTICAL
TOTALS EARLY IN THE DAY WILL RUN IN THE LOW TO MID 20S...BUT SHOOT
UP INTO THE UPPER 20S OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS BY
AFTERNOON AS MID 70 DEWPOINTS POOL AHEAD OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND
SURFACE TEMPS RISE INTO THE LOW TO MID 90S. GFS ALSO SHOWING SOME
DRYING IN MODEL SOUNDINGS BETWEEN 600 AND 700 MB WHICH SLHOULD
ALLOW FOR HIGHER DCAPE VALUES. COUPLE THIS WITH INVERTED V SOUNDINGS
IN THE LOWER LEVELS AND THE MICROBURST POTENTIAL LOOKS DECENT OVER
THE CENTRAL AND SOUTH MONDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING.

DRY AIR WILL LAG BEHIND BOUNDARY SOMEWHAT TUESDAY...THUS EXPECT
SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO STILL BE POSSIBLE UNTIL EARLY
TUESDAY EVENING./26/

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND...MAIN FOCUS FOR THIS
MED RANGE/LONG TERM WILL BE THE EVOLVING NW FLOW PATTERN AND THE LESS
HOT/HUMID CONDITIONS IN THE WAKE OF A WEAK FRONT FOR WED-THU. WE THEN
SHIFT TO WARMER CONDITIONS AND BETTER RAIN CHANCES FOR NEXT WEEKEND.

LOOK FOR DRIER LOW LEVEL AIR TO FILTER INTO THE CWA WITH A MUCH
DRIER AIRMASS OVERALL (PWS .8 TO 1.5 IN) SETTLING OVER THE AREA FOR
WED INTO THU. DUE TO THIS...COOLER THAN AVG MORNING LOWS ARE EXPECTED
WED INTO FRI MORNINGS. LOOK FOR QUITE A BIT OF MID 60S FOR LOWS
DURING THAT TIME. AS FOR PRECIP POTENTIAL...NOT REALLY EXPECTING MUCH
DURING THIS PERIOD...BUT SOME UNCERTAINTY EXISTS IN JUST HOW FAR
SOUTH THE DRIEST AIR WILL GET. THIS COULD RESULT IN JUST ENOUGH DEEP
MOISTURE TO SUPPORT CONVECTION ACROSS THE HWY 84 CORRIDOR. VARIOUS
MOS GUIDANCE SHOWS THIS AND IT WILL BE BEST TO CARRY SOME LOW END
POPS UNTIL GREATER CONFIDENCE DEVELOPS ON HOW FAR SOUTH THE DEEP DRY
AIR WILL PUSH.

BY LATER ON FRI AND INTO THE WEEKEND...LOOK FOR SOUTHERLY FLOW TO
DEVELOP AND DEEPER MOISTURE TO MAKE A RETURN AND RESULT IN SOME
BETTER PRECIP CHANCES. LOW LEVEL TEMPS WILL ALSO WARM...SUPPORTING
WARMER CONDITIONS. /CME/

&&

.AVIATION...SCT/NUM TSRA HAVE DEVELOPED AS EXPECTED THIS AFTN WITH
GREATEST CONCENTRATION EAST OF I-55 AND ESPECIALLY ALONG THE MS
RIVER. BRIEF MVFR HAVE BEEN OBSERVED WITH TSRA WITH KGLH/KGWO LIKELY
TO BE IMPACTED NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. TSRA IS MORE ISOLATED FOR EAST
SITES WITH LOWER RISK OF DIRECT IMPACT THROUGH AFTN. SURFACE WINDS
CONTINUE TO BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE OUTSIDE OF STORMS BUT SOME HIGHER
GUSTS OF 20-40 KT COULD OCCUR INVOF STORMS. STORMS WILL DIMINISH
THROUGH EARLY TO MID EVENING HOURS. MVFR POSSIBLE/LIKELY OVERNIGHT
WITH PATCHY GROUND FOG AND LOW STRATUS FOR KHBG AND KGLH. /ALLEN/
