.UPDATE...
FOR 18Z TAFS

&&

.DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 1054 AM CST FRI DEC 25 2015/
INVERTED TROF/STALLED CDFNT EXTENDING FROM NRN MS THRU MID TN AND
INTO KY ALONG WITH STRONG SRLY 8H WINDS HAS CREATED A VERY HEAVY RAIN
EVENT ACROSS THE TN VALLEY. AT 1045 AM THE NWS IN HUN HAS RECEIVED
MANY REPORTS OF WIDESPREAD FLOODING. THIS ALSO INCLUDES SEVERAL
WATER RESCUES...A WASHED OUT BRIDGE AND NUMEROUS FLOODING SITUATIONS.
EXPECT THIS HEAVY RAIN TO CONTINUE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTN. THE
HVY RAIN SHOULD BEGIN TO TAPER OFF TONIGHT. OTHERWISE LOWERED TEMPS
INTO THE MID/UPPER 60S AND RAISED POPS TO 100%.

007

.AVIATION...
/ISSUED 533 AM CST FRI DEC 25 2015/
FOR 12Z TAFS...A STALLED BOUNDARY OVER NW MS AND GOOD 8H FLOW OUT OF
THE GULF OF MEXICO WILL SET THE STAGE FOR A HVY RAIN EVENT OVER THE
TN VALLEY TODAY AND TONIGHT. THERE WILL ALSO BE ENOUGH LOW LEVEL
SHEAR/CAPES FOR SCT TSRA. RADARS ARE SHOWING SHRA/TSRA ARE
INCREASING IN AREAL COVERAGE ATTM AND EXPECT THIS TREND TO CONTINUE
FOR THE REST OF THE MRNG AND AFTN. THE SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY SHOULD
BEGIN TO DIMINISH AFTER 06Z. EXPECT MAINLY MVFR AND IFR CONDITIONS
THRU THE FCST PERIOD FOR BOTH KMSL AND KHSV.

007

.PREV DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 310 AM CST FRI DEC 25 2015/
ANOTHER TRICKY FORECAST THIS CHRISTMAS MORNING! AS OF 09Z A
SHORTWAVE IS MOVING OUT OF THE GULF AS WELL AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
NOSING NORTH. THESE WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
NORTH THROUGH THE AREA. PW VALUES UPWARDS OF 1.5 INCHES STREAMING IN
FROM THE SOUTH COUPLED WITH SOME WEAK INSTABILITY WILL SUSTAIN THESE
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS AT LEAST IN THE VERY NEAR TERM. AFTER 10-12Z
THIS MORNING...THE LLJ REALLY RAMPS UP FROM THE SOUTH AND SHEAR
INCREASES QUICKLY TO 30-40KT AT 0-1KM. WITH DEW POINTS ALREADY
INCHING UP AND REACHING INTO THE UPPER 60S THIS MORNING...INSTABILITY
WILL QUICKLY INCREASE AS RESULT OF THAT AND HEATING WITH SUNRISE.
ONCE THE ATMOSPHERE COMPLETELY SATURATES EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...INSTABILITY BECOMES MORE ELEVATED IN NATURE BUT WILL
STILL BE SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT THUNDERSTORMS. ALL OF THESE FACTORS
WILL HELP SUSTAIN THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED SHOWERS AND HELP TO
INITIATE NEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CWA AND TO THE
SOUTH AND MOVE SLOWLY NORTH-NORTHEAST.

AT THE SAME TIME...THE FRONT THAT WENT THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY
MORNING MOVED BACK NORTH THURSDAY NIGHT. AS OF 09Z THIS FRONT LOOKS
TO BE LOCATED ALONG THE MS/AR BORDER WITH A SOMEWHAT DISORGANIZED
LINE OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS STRETCHING THROUGH EASTERN TN, DOWN
THROUGH NW MS AND SE AR. TO NOTE...THE LINE IS PROGRESSING A BIT
QUICKER THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT AND SEVERE STORMS ARE MOVING THROUGH
CENTRAL MS AS OF 09Z. THIS TIMING WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED AS IT
APPROACHES THE CWA. THE LOCAL AREA WILL CONTINUE TO BE ENTRENCHED IN
A WARM AND MOIST WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF THIS FRONT. AS THE FRONT
APPROACHES...THE QUESTION WHAT HAPPENS IF THESE TWO SYSTEMS MEET AND
TIMING WILL BE CRUCIAL. LEANING OFF OF SPC'S DAY ONE GUIDANCE AND
LOOKING AT THE NEWER HI RES RUNS (HRRR,RAP,NMM,ARW ALL
SIMILAR)...THEY ARE ALL SUPPORTING A MORE ORGANIZED LINE OF
THUNDERSTORMS BY 15-18Z. THIS IS LIKELY INDICATING A
STRENGTHENING/INCREASING COVERAGE OF THE LINE THAT IS ALREADY IN
CENTRAL MS. THERE WILL BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY/SHEAR TO SUSTAIN A
SQUALL LINE AND EVEN SUPPORT A FEW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF
IT. MY CONCERN WOULD BE HOW SATURATED THE ENVIRONMENT IS AND IF THAT
WILL LIMIT SOME OF THE INSTABILITY AND HOW STRONG THE THUNDERSTORMS
GET. BUT IF THAT DOES NOT OCCUR...WE COULD SEE SOME EMBEDDED SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE LINE. DUE TO THE STRONG LOW LEVEL SHEAR...CANNOT
RULE OUT A TORNADO BUT THE THREAT FOR THAT SEEMS LOW OVERALL.

REGARDLESS...ALL THUNDERSTORMS TODAY WILL BE EFFICIENT RAIN PRODUCERS
WITH PW UPWARDS OF 1.5-2 INCHES POSSIBLE. AS WELL...THE STRONG SW
FLOW ALOFT IS PARALLEL BOTH TO THE NORTHWARD MOVING SHORTWAVE THIS
MORNING AND THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WILL LEAD TO
TRAINING OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO DEVELOP. THIS CONTINUES
TO SUPPORT THE FLOOD WATCH THAT IS IN EFFECT LEADING TO RIVER
FLOODING ISSUES AND MOST LIKELY A FEW INSTANCES OF FLASH FLOODING.

THE ISSUE THEN BECOMES WHAT HAPPENS AFTER ABOUT 21-00Z. THE FRONT
WILL WASH OUT/STALL AT SOME POINT WITH HIRES GUIDANCE WANTING TO
PUSH THE FRONT AND THE LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MUCH OF OUR
AREA BEFORE STALLING. ON THE OTHER HAND THE GLOBAL MODELS/NAM WANT
TO KEEP THE BULK OF THE PRECIP IN OUR NW COUNTIES BEFORE WASHING
OUT. EVENTUALLY OVERNIGHT THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AS IT CONTINUES TO
BUILD WILL PUSH THE FRONT BACK NORTH AGAIN WITH CONTINUED SHOWERS
ALONG IT AND MAYBE A FEW THUNDERSTORMS SINCE INSTABILITY AND SHEAR
WILL BE WEAKER AT THIS TIME.

QPF FOR TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY IS TRICKY BECAUSE OF WHERE THE
BOUNDARIES ULTIMATELY SET UP AND WHAT HAPPENS WITH THE FRONT. OUTSIDE
OF THE HIRES MODELS...HIGHEST AMOUNTS STILL LOOK TO BE IN THE
NORTHWESTERN HALF OF THE CWA BUT IF THE FRONT SINKS FARTHER
SOUTH...THE WHOLE AREA WILL SEE MORE QPF. RIGHT NOW GENERAL AVERAGE
AMOUNTS FOR TOTAL RAINFALL IS ABOUT 1 - 2.5 INCHES (AFTER 12Z FRIDAY) BUT
THAT IS AN AVERAGE...LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS WILL OCCUR.

WITH CONTINUED MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW AND ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE OVER THE
AREA SATURDAY AND INTO SUNDAY...IT IS HARD TO MAKE A CASE FOR
LOWERING POPS ANYTHING BELOW CHANCE. SUNDAY LOOKS A LITTLE DRIER AS
THE NEXT SYSTEM STARTS TO WRAP UP AND MOVE EAST...SO DID LOWER TO
SLIGHT CHANCE ON THIS FORECAST UPDATE. BUT THE WEEKEND LOOKS TO
CONSIST OF SCATTERED LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN SHOWERS.

RECORD BREAKING WARMTH WILL CONTINUE THIS WEEKEND WITH HIGHS TODAY
IN THE LOWER 70S... SATURDAY INTO THE MIDDLE 70S AND SUNDAY MAYBE A
DEG OR TWO COOLER. LOWS EACH NIGHT WILL BE IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER
60S WHICH IS WELL ABOVE THE NORMAL HIGHS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR
(LOWER 50S).

LN

LONG TERM (SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT)...
MODELS ARE BECOMING MORE CONSISTENT IN THEIR PLACEMENT OF THE SYSTEM
FOR THE UPCOMING WEEK. THE UPPER LOW CUTS OFF OVER EASTERN TEXAS
WITH THE ECMWF DEEPER BY AROUND 10MB AT 12Z MONDAY. THE WARM FRONT
WILL LIKELY DEVELOP TO THE NORTH OF THE AREA BUT WITH ISENTROPIC
LIFT AND A LLJ FROM THE SOUTH...SHOWERS WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE SUNDAY
NIGHT AHEAD OF THE MAIN SYSTEM. LOOKS LIKE THE BULK OF THE RAINFALL
WILL BE BETWEEN 12-18Z MONDAY WITH GFS DRY AFTER 00Z AND THE ECMWF
DRY AFTER 06Z TUES...SO STILL SOME TIMING DIFFERENCES. THUNDERSTORMS
WILL BE LIKELY ALONG THIS LINE BUT THE QUESTION WILL BE HOW
STRONG/SEVERE THEY GET. ONCE AGAIN...THE BULK OF THE UPPER SUPPORT
STAYS WELL TO OUR NORTH (GFS KEEPS IT FARTHER SOUTH/CLOSER TO THE
AREA). BUT WITH SUFFICIENT SHEAR...AT LEAST MODERATE CAPE FOR THIS
TIME OF YEAR AND A STRONG SURFACE BOUNDARY...STRONG TO POTENTIALLY
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE. IT WILL ULTIMATELY DEPEND ON THE
LIFT AND IF IT CAN COINCIDE WITH THE WARM SECTOR AND LLJ.
WIND...OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS...WILL BE AN ISSUE AS WELL. GUSTS
AROUND 25 MPH ARE FORECAST NOT BUT WILL NOT BE SURPRISED IF THAT
INCREASES AS WE GET CLOSER.

SHOULD BE DRY TUE AND MOST OF WED UNTIL ANOTHER BOUNDARY SETS UP
OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT IMPACT THE
REGION...DUE TO VARIOUS DIFFERENCES IN GUIDANCE. DRY CONDITIONS ONCE
AGAIN EXPECTED THU EVENING INTO SATURDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL FINALLY
BEGIN TO FALL ON TUESDAY BEHIND THE COLD FRONT AND HIGHS WILL ONLY
GET INTO THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 50S AND CONTINUE TO FALL THROUGH THE
WEEK WITH HIGHS FRIDAY IN THE UPPER 40S. LOWS WILL FOLLOW A SIMILAR
PATTERN AND FALL INTO THE UPPER 40S MONDAY NIGHT AND DOWN TO THE
LOWER 30S THURSDAY NIGHT.

LN

&&

.AVIATION...
FOR 18Z TAFS...HEAVY RAIN ALONG WITH SCT TSRA WILL CONTINUE FOR THE
REST OF THE AFTN AND INTO THE EVENING. THE STALLED CDFNT TO THE WEST
OF THE TAF SITES WILL BEGIN TO MOVE NORTH TONIGHT AS A WARM FRONT.
THIS WILL ALLOW THE RAIN/TSRA TO TAPER OFF ARND MIDNIGHT. THERE MAY
BE VFR CONDITIONS BRIEFLY OVER THE TAF SITES THIS AFTN...BUT OVERALL
EXPECT MVFR WITH OCCASIONAL IFR FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FCST
PERIOD.
