AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
425 PM CDT SAT APR 18 2015

.DISCUSSION... PERSISTENT THUNDERSTORMS IN THE WESTERN AND NORTH
CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO HAVE HAD A BIG IMPACT ON THE WEATHER OVER THE
LOWER MS VALLEY TODAY...DELAYING THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AND
SOMEWHAT LIMITING INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR SEVERE WEATHER PRODUCTION.
AS I WRITE WE ARE FINALLY SEEING A BETTER COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND A
FEW STORMS BUILD NORTH INTO THE REGION AS A SURFACE LOW NEAR THE
ARKLATEX GAINS A LITTLE STRENGTH AND PULLS SLOWLY NORTHWARD. THIS
ACTIVITY SHOULD CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS...BUT MLCAPE
VALUES LESS THAN 1000 J/KG AND LOW LEVEL SHEAR COMPROMISED BY
ANOMALOUS GULF CONVECTION WILL ONLY SUPPORT OF LIMITED THREAT OF
SEVERE OF WEATHER (AND MAINLY ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF THE NATCHEZ
TRACE CORRIDOR). IN THESE SAME AREAS LOCALIZED HEAVY RAIN WILL
CONTINUE TO BE A CONCERN...ALTHOUGH NOT A LARGE ENOUGH CONCERN AT
THE MOMENT TO STRONGLY CONSIDER A FLASH FLOOD WATCH.

LATER TONIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY THE TROUGH CURRENTLY IN THE PLAINS
WILL BE APPROACHING AND INCREASING ATMOSPHERIC LAPSE RATES FROM WEST
TO EAST. THIS EVOLUTION WILL CREATE A SITUATION WHERE CAPE/SHEAR
COMBINATIONS WILL TREND TO BEING MORE FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER
PRODUCTION...DESPITE A SYNOPTIC SITUATION NOT FAVORABLE FOR MORE
THAN ISOLATED STORMS. THIS REGIME WILL HAVE TO BE MONITORED CLOSELY
LATER TONIGHT AND THROUGH THE MORNING TOMORROW.
PERSONALLY...CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING THAT A STRAY AND VERY ISOLATED
(YET POTENTIALLY DAMAGING) SUPERCELL MAY AFFECT A FEW LOCATIONS
NORTH OF I-20 IN THE AFTERNOON. THE RISK FOR THIS WILL OF COURSE BE
MONITORED...BUT WE STILL ANTICIPATE THE MAIN WINDOW OF SEVERE
WEATHER RISK FOR TOMORROW TO COME IN THE EVENING HOURS ALONG A PRE-
FRONTAL TROUGH AXIS SLIDING IN FROM THE WEST. DURING THAT TIME A
BROKEN LINE OF SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS AND A TORNADO OR TWO WILL BE MOVING INTO THE ARKLAMISS
DELTA BETWEEN 8 AND 10 PM. THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER IN THESE
ARKLAMISS DELTA ZONES WILL INITIALLY BE SIGNIFICANT...WITH THE RISK
GRADUALLY WANING THROUGH THE LATE EVENING AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS AS ACTIVITY PUSHES SOUTHEAST AND BECOMES MORE ISOLATED AND
PROGRESSIVELY WEAKER. HOWEVER...JUST BECAUSE A GRADUAL WEAKENING
TREND IS EXPECTED AS ACTIVITY PUSHES THROUGH THE CWA DOESN'T MEAN
ANYBODY IN THE ARKLAMISS REGION SHOULD IGNORE THE RISK FOR SEVERE
WEATHER TOMORROW NIGHT. /BB/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 454 AM CDT SAT APR 18 2015/

LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY....MONDAY MORNING THE LARGE
CLOSED LOW IS EXPECTED TO BE CENTERED OVER THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY WITH ASSOCIATED LARGE AMPLITUDE UPPER LEVEL TROUGHING OVER
THE EASTERN TWO THIRDS OF THE CONUS. MODELS AGREE THAT THE
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW WILL BE OVER THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES REGION
MONDAY MORNING BUT THERE ARE TIMING DIFFERENCES WITH THE TRAILING
COLD FRONT THAT IS EXPECTED TO BE OVER SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI.
CONSENSUS PLACES THIS COLD FRONT AND THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION
JUST SOUTHEAST OF OUR CWA AT DAYBREAK BUT WL MAINTAIN LOW CHANCES OF
LIGHT RAIN IN OUR NORTHEAST THROUGH MID MORNING AS A WEAK SHORTWAVE
PASSES OVER OVERHEAD. DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED AREAWIDE BY NOON.
SLIGHTLY COOLER AND MUCH DRIER AIR WILL FILTER INTO OUR CWA MONDAY
KNOCKING DEW POINTS INTO THE 40S DURING THE AFTERNOON. DRY WEATHER
IS EXPECTED TO LAST OVER OUR CWA THROUGH TUESDAY AS A SURFACE HIGH
MOVES EAST ACROSS OUR AREA. THIS SURFACE HIGH WILL SHIFT EAST
WEDNESDAY AND THE RESULTING RETURN FLOW WILL INCREASE MOISTURE TO
SUPPORT RAIN CHANCES AGAIN FROM THE WEST BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND GREATER RAIN CHANCES ARE
EXPECTED FOR THE END OF THE WEEK BUT THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT
DIFFERENCES IN THE MODELS WITH SOME MAIN FEATURES. THE NORTHERN
CLOSED LOW WILL MOVE SLOWLY EAST ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY AND BE OVER THE NEW ENGLAND STATES BY FRIDAY.
THIS LOW WILL TRY TO HELP SUPPORT ANOTHER COLD FRONT DROPPING INTO
OUR CWA THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY BUT INDUCED SHORTWAVE RIDGING
DOWNSTREAM OF A SECOND CLOSED LOW MOVING OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST
THURSDAY LOOKS TO IMPEDE THE COLD FRONT INTO OUR AREA. SHORTWAVES
ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE SOUTHERN CLOSED LOW LOOK TO COMBINE WITH
INCREASING MOISTURE AND DAYTIME HEATING FOR A ROUND OF CONVECTION
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. BOTH GFS AND ECMWF OPEN THE CLOSED LOW AND
BRING THE REMAINING SHORTWAVE TROUGH ACROSS OUR REGION SATURDAY BUT
DIFFER ON THE SURFACE FEATURES WITH THE GFS DEPICTING A MUCH DEEPER
LOW AND STRONGER COLD FRONT ACROSS OUR AREA. FOR NOW...GREATEST POPS
THROUGH THE LONG TERM WILL BE CARRIED FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT. /22/

&&

.AVIATION...MOST SITES ARE MVFR THIS AFTERNOON AND EXPECT THESE
CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS. SHRA/TSRA ARE
DEVELOPING AND WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING
BRINGING WITH IT OCCASIONAL IFR CONDITIONS. SHRA WILL CONTINUE TO BE
POSSIBLE THROUGH MUCH OF THE PERIOD WITH IFR CONDITIONS RETURNING
AFTER 07-08Z FOR ALL SITES. THE WINDS WILL REMAIN LIGHT OUT OF THE
EAST TO SOUTHEAST BECOMING SOUTHWESTERLY EARLY ON SUNDAY./15/
