AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
313 PM CDT SAT JUN 7 2014

.DISCUSSION...

CURRENT SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN PLACE FOR THE NORTHERN THIRD
OF THE MIDSOUTH...WITH A FEW STORMS CAPABLE OF STRONG ROTATION AND
POSSIBLE TORNADOES. THIS THREAT WILL CONTINUE IN THE MID EVENING
HOURS. THE REMAINDER OF THE MIDSOUTH MAY SEE PULSE TYPE SEVERE
WEATHER EARLY AND POTENTIALLY A STRONGER ORGANIZED LINE OVERNIGHT
AS A WEAK COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE REGION. A FLASH FLOOD
WATCH IS STILL IN EFFECT THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING OVER THE NORTHERN
TWO THIRDS OF THE MIDSOUTH.

SUNDAY...AFOREMENTIONED FRONT WILL SAG INTO NORTH MISSISSIPPI
TOMORROW...WHERE THE BRUNT OF PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO INCLUDE
A FEW ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS. TO THE NORTH A SLIGHTLY COOLER/MORE
STABLE AIRMASS WILL BRIEFLY FILTER IN...SO HAVE LOWERED POPS IN
THIS AREA. THE FRONT WILL WAVE BACK AS A WARM FRONT SUNDAY NIGHT
WITH PRECIPITATION BREAKING OUT FIRST OVER ARKANSAS BY
MIDNIGHT...AND THEN SPREADING EAST BY SUNRISE MONDAY MORNING.

MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...NEXT POTENT SHORTWAVE IS EXPECTED TO
GET PINCHED OFF OVER THE PLAINS AND BECOME CLOSED ON MONDAY. THIS
FEATURE WILL SLOWLY DRIFT OVER THE OZARKS ON TUESDAY AND THEN MOVE
SLOWLY MOVE UP THE OHIO VALLEY ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. STORMS
WILL BE LIKELY EACH DAY...WITH SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE ON MONDAY
AND TUESDAY. STEEPER LAPSE RATES WITH THE LOW...COUPLED WITH A
STRONGER LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL MEAN A BETTER POTENTIAL FOR LARGE
HAIL AND TORNADOES. FLASH-FLOODING WILL ALSO REMAIN A THREAT. HAVE
LEANED MORE WITH THE NAM AND ECMWF ON KEEPING TEMPERATURES COOLER.

THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...A WEAK UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL BE LEFT
IN THE SHORTWAVE'S WAKE...ALONG WITH PLENTY OF GULF MOISTURE.
TEMPERATURES SHOULD CLIMB BACK INTO THE MID AND UPPER 80S
PROVIDING ENOUGH INSTABILITY FOR ISOLATED SHOWERS AND STORMS
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS. SKIES SHOULD BECOME
MOSTLY CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY DURING THE NIGHT.
