The radar

The Jackson/Brandon,MS radar (KDGX), 151 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 23:01 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

Open the radar archive at this moment

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Jackson, MS (KJAN), launched 12:00Z, 11.0 hours before the alert went out and 141 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Nov 17, 3:50 PM CST, 1 hour 9 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 17, 3:50 PM CST, 1 hour 9 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
350 PM CST TUE NOV 17 2015

.DISCUSSION...SQUALL LINE IMPINGING ON WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE CWA AT
THE MOMENT AND EXPECT IT TO CONTINUE SWEEPING EAST OVERNIGHT. BACK
EDGE OF PRECIP STILL EXTENDS AS FAR WEST AS EAST TX. RAINFALL
AMOOUNTS HAVE BEEN QUITE HEAVY OVER NORTH LA WITH REPORTS OF NEAR 3.5
INCHES TODAY IN SHV. THESE AMOUNTS WERE EXPECTED AND SHOULD SEE
AMOUNTS SIMILAR TO THIS OVER THE CWA OVERNIGHT.

SEVERE THREAT STILL LOOKS IMPRESSIVE ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING SHEAR AND
INSTABILITY HAVE OVERACHIEVED FROM WHAT WAS EXPECTED. BETTER
WARMTH/MOISTURE HAS YIELDED CAPES OVER 1000 J/KG ALONG THE MS RIVER
AHEAD OF THE SQUALL LINE LATE THIS AFTERNOON. ALSO...0-1KM BULK SHEAR
VALUES IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF THE LINE HAVE MAXIMIZED AT 40 TO 50
KNOTS. WHILE CELLS HAVE JUST STARTED MOVING INTO THE AREA...HAVE
ALREADY NOTICED THE PREPONDERANCE WANTING TO ROTATE AS WOULD BE
EXPECTED. EXPECT THIS TREND TO CONTINUE...AT LEAST THROUGH THE
EVENING WHILE THE GOOD INSTABILITY LASTS.

HAVE OBSERVED 20 TO 30 KNOTS OF WIND ACROSS THE AREA WITH SOME GUSTS
AROUND 35 KNOTS OVER THE DELTA AS 80 DEGREE HEATING HAS CREATED DEEP
MIXING THIS AFTERNOON. WHILE PRESSURE GRADIENT SHOULD REMAIN TIGHT
ENOUGH AHEAD OF SQUALL LINE THIS EVENING FOR SUSTAINED WINDS OF 15 TO
25 KNOTS...BELIEVE THE GUSTS WILL DIMINISH SOMEWHAT WITH THE LOSS OF
HEATING. THUS...WILL LET WIND ADVISORY EXPIRE AT 00Z.

THE HEAVY RAINFALL SHOULD BE COMING TO AN END OVER WESTERN SECTIONS
TOWARD DAWN...BUT LINGER IN THE EAST THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING.
CLOUDS WILL QUICKLY MOVE OUT BEHIND THE RAIN WITH THE ENTIRE AREA
BEING CLEAR BY SUNSET WEDNESDAY.

OTHER THAN A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS WITH A PASSING WEAK DISTURBANCE
SATURDAY...DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD IN THE
DOMINANT ZONAL FLOW PATTERN./26/

&&

.AVIATION...PATCHES OF STRATUS CONTINUE TO SPREAD ACROSS THE REGION
THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM, WITH CIGS
VARYING BETWEEN VFR AND MVFR. WINDS WILL REMAIN RATHER GUSTY THROUGH
THE REMAINDER OF THE DAYTIME WITH GUSTS OVER 35 KT POSSIBLE. SCT
SHRA AND TSRA WILL INCREASE ALONG AND WEST OF THE MS RIVER THIS
AFTERNOON. BY THIS EVENING, LOWER STRATUS WILL FILL IN ACROSS THE
REGION BRINGING MVFR/IFR CIGS. A LINE OF TSRA WILL PUSH WEST TO EAST
ACROSS THE REGION, REACHING THE I-55 CORRIDOR AROUND MIDNIGHT AND
THE I-59 CORRIDOR IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WED. SEVERE WIND GUSTS
AND TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THIS LINE. VISBYS WILL BE
SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED AT TIMES IN +TSRA. IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS WILL
PERSIST ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION INTO WED MORNING BEHIND THE LINE
DUE TO LINGERING LOW STRATUS. /DL/
