AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
406 PM CDT SUN OCT 12 2014
...SEVERE STORMS EXPECTED MONDAY AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY EVENING...
.DISCUSSION...AS EXPECTED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED
THIS AFTERNOON IN A MOISTER ENVIRONMENT IN ASSOCIATION WITH A WEAK
DISTURBANCE MOVING TO THE NORTHEAST ACROSS THE REGION. THESE STORMS
HAVE REMAINED SUB-SEVERE BUT A STRONG STORM IS NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION. THESE STORMS SHOULD LINGER INTO THE EVENING HOURS BUT
EVENTUALLY DIMINISH AS THE DISTURBANCE MOVES OUT OF THE REGION. THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT HAS BEEN TAKING UP RESIDENCE ACROSS OUR AREA
THE LAST FEW DAYS HAS MOVED TO THE NORTH OF US AS A WARM
FRONT...LEAVING THE REGION IN THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF OUR NEXT BIG
WEATHER SYSTEM.
THE MAIN WEATHER STORY WILL BE THE STRONG COLD FRONT SET TO MOVE
THROUGH OUR AREA WITH SEVERE WEATHER PRECEDING IT MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT. MODELS CONTINUE TO BE IN GOOD AGREEMENT REGARDING TIMING AND
RISKS WITH THIS EVENT. 12Z MONDAY MORNING A 996MB SFC LOW AND 557DM
MID LEVEL LOW WILL BE LOCATED IN CENTRAL OKLAHOMA. MOISTURE
TRANSPORT WILL BE RATHER HIGH LATER TONIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY MORNING
AS A 40-50KT SOUTHERLY LLJ KICKS IN OVER THE REGION. THE REGION
SHOULD REMAIN MOSTLY DRY THROUGH THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON AS
CAPPING SHOULD LIMIT CONVECTION UNTIL THE BETTER FORCING ARRIVES IN
THE AFTERNOON...BUT CLOUDS SHOULD BE ON THE INCREASE. MODELS LOOK
LIKE THEY HAVE SHIFTED JUST A TAD FURTHER TO THE SOUTH ON THE 12Z
RUNS AND JUST A TAD SLOWER WITH THE SFC LOW MOVING THROUGH NORTHERN
ARKANSAS AND SOUTHERN MISSOURI BY 18Z. GLOBAL AND HI-RES MODELS
AGREE THAT AT THIS POINT...THE SQUALL LINE SHOULD BE KNOCKING ON OUR
DOOR. THIS SQUALL LINE WILL PROGRESS EAST THROUGH THE
AREA...ARRIVING NEAR I-55 CORRIDOR AROUND 00Z AND EXITING THE EAST
BY 06Z(AND LIKELY BEFORE). IN ADDITION TO THE SQUALL LINE...THERE IS
INCREASING CONCERN FOR MORE WARM ADVECTION SHOWERS AND DISCRETE
CELLS AHEAD OF THE LINE. THIS HAS BEEN DEPICTED WELL AND MORE
BULLISH BY HI-RES MODEL DATA.
IN TERMS OF HAZARDS...THE MAIN CONCERN REMAINS DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.
TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE GIVEN SUFFICIENT
HELICITIES...ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTH AND EAST...AS WELL AS 30-40KTS
OF 0-1KM SHEAR AND 40-50KTS OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR. STILL THINKING THAT
NORTH OF I-20 MAY HAVE THE BETTER SHOT FOR TORNADOES GIVEN THAT WILL
BE IN THE NORTHERN GRADIENT OF SPC'S SIG TOR PARAMETER. THERE ALSO
COULD BE MESOVORTEX TORNADOES BUT THIS IS A LITTLE MORE UNCERTAIN
GIVEN THE NORTHEAST COMPONENT OF THE 0-3KM SHEAR VECTOR. IF ANY
BOWING SEGMENT IN THE LINE CAN BECOME MORE ORIENTED TOWARD THE
NORTHEAST...THERE WILL BE POTENTIAL FOR EMBEDDED MESOVORTEX
TORNADOES. OF COURSE...WITH GREATER POTENTIAL FOR DISCRETE CELLS
AHEAD OF THE LINE...THERE WILL BE A CHANCE FOR ANY STORM THAT CAN
TAP INTO THE HIGHER SHEAR AND GREATER THAN 200 M2/S2 HELICITY TO
BRING A TORNADO THREAT. WE HAVE CONTINUED WITH THE ELEVATED LEVEL ON
OUR HWO AND GRAPHICS. THERE MAY BE A NEED TO GO TO THE HIGH CATEGORY
FOR SOME AREA AS THE EVENT DRAWS CLOSER BUT CONFIDENCE IN STRONG
TORNADOES AND SIGNIFICANT WIND GUSTS GREATER THAN 75MPH IS NOT HIGH
ENOUGH TO WARRANT AN UPGRADE AT THIS TIME. SMALL HAIL ALSO POSSIBLE
AND RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1-1.5 INCHES ALSO POSSIBLE BUT FLOODING IS
NOT A BIG CONCERN GIVEN THE PROGRESSIVE NATURE OF THE SQUALL LINE.
ANOTHER IMPACT ON MONDAY WILL BE FROM GRADIENT WIND AHEAD OF THE SFC
LOW. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL BE TIGHTENED AND THIS WILL LEAD TO
SUSTAINED WINDS OF 25MPH WITH GUSTS TO NEAR 40MPH...PARTICULARLY IN
THE DELTA REGION. BECAUSE OF THIS...A WIND ADVISORY HAS BEEN HOISTED
FOR THIS REGION. GUSTY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE AREAWIDE AS WELL.
THE FRONT WILL BE THROUGH THE REGION EARLY TUESDAY AND
COOLER...DRIER AIR WILL MOVE IN. HIGHS WILL BE IN THE UPPER
60S/AROUND 70 TUESDAY AND LOWS IN THE 40S TUESDAY NIGHT. CLOUDS
SHOULD LINGER AS THE UPPER LOW SPINS OVER INDIANA AND BRINGS
STRATOCUMULUS AND SOME LIGHT RAIN TO THE REGION(OR AT LEAST THE
NORTHEAST HALF) TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. THE UPPER TROUGH WILL
MOVE EAST OF THE MID-SOUTH REGION WEDNESDAY AND RIDGING WILL MOVE
IN. DRIER WEATHER SHOULD PREVAIL THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST
PERIOD WITH TEMPERATURES GRADUALLY MODERATING THROUGH THIS TIME. /28/
&&
.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS WILL EXIST OUTSIDE OF ANY AFTERNOON
CONVECTION. SCT SHRA/TSRA IS MOVING INTO THE AREA MOSTLY ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE. MAIN TAF SITES AFFECTED ARE
KJAN/KHKS/KGTR THROUGH 23Z. THE SCT SHRA/TSRA WILL BRING SOME CHANCE
OF A BRIEF PERIOD OF RESTRICTED CONDITIONS INTO THE EARLY EVE. AS WE
HEAD INTO THE EVE/OVERNIGHT...EXPECT MVFR CEILINGS TO DEVELOP BY
07-09Z. SFC WINDS AND WINDS ALOFT LOOK TO BE STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP
CEILINGS ONLY IN THE MVFR CATEGORY. /CME/
