Area forecast discussion, Jul 14, 3:54 PM CDT, 1 hour 58 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
354 PM CDT MON JUL 14 2014
.DISCUSSION...
A VERY ACTIVE AND UNUSUAL WEATHER PATTERN FOR THE MIDDLE OF JULY IS
FORECAST THIS WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. FORTUNATELY...THE MODELS ARE IN
GOOD AGREEMENT AND THE FORECAST SEEMS STRAIGHT FORWARD.
A STRONG CLOSED UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE INTO THE GREAT LAKES
TONIGHT WITH A LARGE UNSEASONABLY DEEP TROUGH EXTENDING INTO THE
MIDSOUTH. AS ASSOCIATED STRONG COLD FRONT WAS MOVING INTO SOUTHEAST
MO THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL MOVE THROUGH THE MIDSOUTH TONIGHT AND
TUESDAY MORNING. THUNDERSTORMS WERE FIRING ALONG A PRE-FRONTAL
TROUGH ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL AR WHILE OTHER THUNDERSTORMS WERE ALONG
A CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IN NORTHWEST TN. HOT...VERY MOIST AND
UNSTABLE AIR WAS PUSHING INTO THE MIDSOUTH SOUTH OF THESE
THUNDERSTORMS. MIXED LAYER CAPES WERE ABOVE 4000 J/KG IN PORTIONS OF
NORTHEAST AR AND ARE FORECAST TO REACH 5000 J/KG ACROSS PORTIONS OF
THE MIDSOUTH. LIFTED INDICES ARE FORECAST TO DECREASE TO BETWEEN
MINUS 8 AND MINUS 10. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO TRAIN ACROSS
PORTIONS OF THE MIDSOUTH WITH HEAVY RAINFALL. PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUES ARE FORECAST TO CLIMB CLOSE TO 2.5 INCHES IN SOME LOCATIONS.
SURFACE DEW POINTS ARE IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 70S. ISSUED A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH FOR MOST OF THE MIDSOUTH THROUGH TONIGHT WITH TIMING
VARYING NORTH TO SOUTH BASED ON THE EXPECTED MOVEMENT OF THE COLD
FRONT. AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES HAVE CLIMBED INTO THE LOWER AND MIDDLE
90S ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 40. HEAT INDEX READINGS HAVE
PEAKED AROUND 105 DEGREES IN A FEW LOCATIONS...THINK THIS WILL BE
SHORT LIVED SO WILL NOT ISSUE A HEAT ADVISORY ATTM BUT WILL ISSUE A
SHORT TERM FORECAST.
THE COLD FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTHEASTWARD OUT OF NORTH MS TUESDAY
MORNING TAKING THE RAIN WILL IT. MODELS CONTINUE TO BE A LITTLE
FASTER IN MOVING THE RAIN OUT OF THE AREA...SO ADJUSTED THE POPS
ACCORDINGLY. SOME INCREDIBLY NICE WEATHER WILL FOLLOW THE FRONT INTO
AT LEAST WEDNESDAY. MUCH DRIER AND COOLER AIR WILL FOLLOW THE FRONT.
HIGHS TUESDAY WILL RANGE FROM THE MIDDLE 70S TO MIDDLE 80S AND ON
WEDNESDAY WILL BE IN THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER 80S...WELL BELOW NORMAL
FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR...WITH LOW HUMIDITY. LOW TEMPERATURES
WEDNESDAY MORNING WILL DROP INTO THE 50S ACROSS A LARGE SWATH OF THE
AREA.
BY LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY...AN UNUSUAL OVERRUNNING
WEATHER PATTERN WILL SET UP ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH RESULTING IN MORE
RAIN. AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL DIG TO OUT WEST...THE MOVE INTO THE
MIDSOUTH. THE FRONT THAT PUSHED THROUGH HERE AS A COLD FRONT WILL
TRY TO EDGE BACK AS A WARM FRONT WITH A SURFACE LOW RIDING ALONG THE
FRONT. SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE
INTO FRIDAY. THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL GRADUALLY MOVE TO OUR EAST
BY SATURDAY WITH DECREASING POPS OVER THE WEEKEND. BUT THE
ATMOSPHERE WILL REMAIN MOIST AND UNSTABLE ENOUGH FOR A CONTINUED
SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY. THE REGION WILL
BECOME BETTER ENTRENCHED IN A NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT BY MONDAY WITH A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
