What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river 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 river flood warning went out at Mar 24, 4:15 AM CDT, 3 hours 42 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 24, 4:15 AM CDT, 3 hours 42 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
415 AM CDT TUE MAR 24 2015

.DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...

THE FORECAST IS WORKING OUT FAIRLY WELL WITH PATCHY AREAS OF FOG AND
A FEW REPORTS OF SHALLOW DENSE FOG SO FAR THIS EARLY
MORNING...PARTICULARLY ALONG THE I-20 CORRIDOR IN CENTRAL MS WHERE
THE CLEARING SEEMED TO HAVE MOST FAVORABLE TIMING. AT THIS
TIME...JUST PLANNING TO MAINTAIN THE LIMITED DENSE FOG THREAT
INDICATED IN THE HWO/GRAPHIC...BUT WILL TRIM IT BACK SOME ALONG THE
HWY 82/84 CORRIDORS.

EXPECT THE FOG TO MIX OUT FAIRLY QUICK AFTER SUNRISE WITH PLENTY OF
SUNSHINE MAKING FOR A VERY MILD DAY. AS WE GO INTO TONIGHT...ANOTHER
ROUND OF LATE NIGHT FOG IS POSSIBLE AS HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS EAST OF
THE AREA RESULTING IN INCREASED SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW AND
MOISTURE TRANSPORT BENEATH AN IMPRESSIVE ELEVATED MIXED LAYER.

SOME MODELS IN RECENT DAYS HAVE BEEN KEYING IN ON DEVELOPMENT OF A
SUBTLE MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AXIS OVER SOUTH/EAST CENTRAL MS FOR
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...BUT WITH WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT MAINTAINING THE
EML AND CAP AND LIMITING DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND CONVECTIVE
POTENTIAL...HAVE JUST INDICATED VERY SLIGHT SHOWER CHANCES. /EC/

LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY - A STRONG COLD FRONT WITH THE
ASSOCIATED EMBEDDED ISOLATED CONVECTION WILL PUSH ACROSS THE REGION
ON THURSDAY. THIS WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH AN UNSEASONABLE UPPER
TROUGH AND A COOL PATTERN FOR THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING.
THIS WAS CONTINUED TO BE AGREED UPON BY THE CANADIAN...EURO/PARALLEL
EURO...AND GFS OPERATIONAL MODELS AND THEIR ENSEMBLES. HEIGHTS AND
LOW LEVEL TEMPS WILL BE AROUND 3 STANDARD DEVIATIONS BELOW NORMAL.
FOR THURSDAY EVENING THERE WILL BE SOME POST FRONTAL SHOWERS ACROSS
THE CWA WHICH WILL END BY FRIDAY. OUR COOL PATTERN WILL BEGIN IN THE
WAKE OF THE FRONT FOR THURSDAY NIGHT WITH NEAR SEASONAL READINGS IN
THE 40S. THE SHOWERS WILL END BY FRIDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 50S AND
60S...WHICH WILL BE 5 TO 15 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. A STRONG UPPER
TROUGH IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WILL PUSH ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS ON
FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. LOWS WILL DIP INTO THE 30S AND 40S FOR
FRIDAY NIGHT. THERE MAY BE SOME RISK OF SOME NEAR FREEZING TEMPS IN
NORMALLY COOLER LOCATIONS IN THE NORTH FOR AGRICULTURAL INTEREST AS
WELL AS TENDER VEGETATION. IT WILL BE EVEN COOLER SATURDAY WITH
HIGHS JUST MAINLY IN THE 50S. FOR SATURDAY NIGHT WE WILL BE IN A
GOOD SET UP FOR SOME STRONG RADIATIONAL COOLING AS SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE SETTLES INTO THE REGION BEHIND THE DEPARTING STRONG UPPER
TROUGH. THEREFORE THE RISK OF FREEZING TEMPS FOR AGRICULTURAL
INTEREST WITH THE RISK OF FROST WILL BE GREATER WITH LOWS DIPPING
AROUND THE LOWER 30S IN THE NORTH. SOME OF THE LOWER END OF THE
ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE KEEPS LOWS AROUND 30 TO FREEZING. RESIDENTS ARE
URGE TO KEEP UPDATED ON THE POTENTIAL COLDER TEMPS IN REGARDS TO
TENDER VEGETATION. THE CIPS MODELS JUST TO GIVEN AN IDEA OF THE
POTENTIAL...SLU CIPS ANALOG GUIDANCE CENTERED ON SATURDAY INDICATES
60-80% EXCEEDANCE OF THE <32F FOR 5 HR THRESHOLD OVER NORTHEAST AND
EAST CENTRAL MS...AND > 50% EXCEEDANCE OF THE <32F FOR 1 HR
THRESHOLD FOR MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA. FOR NOW THIS FAR OUT WILL
NOT MENTION THE POTENTIAL IN THE HWO...BUT WILL MONITOR FOR LATER
FORECAST PACKAGES. AS WE GO INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. THE PATTERN BECOMES MILDER WITH SOME LIGHT SHOWERS COMING IN
ON MONDAY FROM A WEAK DISTURBANCE./17/

&&
.AVIATION...PATCHY AREAS OF LIFR FOG/STRATUS WILL CREATE PROBLEMS
PARTICULARLY ALONG THE TVR/JAN/MEI CORRIDOR EARLY THIS MORNING WITH
PATCHY MVFR/IFR RESTRICTIONS EXPECTED ELSEWHERE. CONDITIONS SHOULD
IMPROVE QUICKLY BY MID TO LATE MORNING AS THE FOG MIXES OUT...AND
VFR CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED IN THE AFTN/EVNG. ANOTHER ROUND OF
FOG/STRATUS IS EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING IN
THE PERSISTENT PATTERN. /EC/
