AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1053 AM CDT TUE MAR 31 2015

.UPDATE...TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO WARM INTO THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER
70S ACROSS THE REGION GIVEN PLENTY OF SOUTHERLY FLOW AND SUNSHINE. AS
TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO HEAT...ALONG WITH A MOIST AIRMASS..A DIFFUSE
BOUNDARY AND AN APPROACHING DISTURBANCE...THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR
SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL ACROSS THE NORTHERN PART OF THE ARKLAMISS
REGION. SOME STORMS HAVE ALREADY DEVELOPED IN ARKANSAS AND EXPECT
THAT ADDITIONAL STORM WILL DEVELOP THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THIS IS
ALSO SUPPORTED BY HI-RES GUIDANCE AS WELL. STEEP LAPSE RATES
CHARACTERIZED BY 28-30 VERTICAL TOTALS AND GOOD CAPE IN THE -10 TO
-30C HAIL GROWTH REGION WILL YIELD SOME SEVERE STORMS WITH LARGE HAIL
TO THE SIZE OF GOLFBALLS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE NORTH IN
ADDITION TO 60MPH WIND GUSTS. DUE TO THIS INCREASING CONFIDENCE...WE
HAVE RAISED PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI TO AN ELEVATED RISK
OF SEVERE STORMS AND INCREASED THE HAIL SIZE FOR ALL LOCATIONS
GENERALLY NORTH OF I-20 FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. OTHER
FORECAST PARAMETERS SEEM IN GOOD SHAPE AND ONLY HOURLY ADJUSTMENTS
WERE NEEDED. /28/

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL AT ALL TAF SITES THIS MORNING AND EXPECT
THESE CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS. A
DISTURBANCE SHIFTING EAST THROUGH THE REGION TODAY...IN ADDITION TO
INCREASING MOISTURE...WILL BRING AN INCREASE IN CLOUDS TO THE
REGION.  CONVECTION WILL ALSO BEGIN TO IMPEDE UPON THE
REGION...MAINLY NORTH OF INTERSTATE 20...FROM LATE MORNING AND
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH
THE MOST INTENSE STORMS IN THIS AREA.  AS A RESULT OF INCREASING
CLOUDS AND CONVECTION...PERIODS OF MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND/OR
VISIBILITIES WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT TODAY.  WINDS TODAY WILL BE
WEST SOUTHWESTERLY AROUND 10 KNOTS...AND SUBSIDE TONIGHT TO BETWEEN
3-5 KNOTS.  SOME PATCHY FOG AGAIN CAN'T BE RULED OUT AT SOME TAF
SITES EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. /19//15/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 413 AM CDT TUE MAR 31 2015/

DISCUSSION...TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...A BOUNDARY MEANDERING
ABOUT ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA...IN ADDITION TO
AN APPROACHING DISTURBANCE ALOFT...DAYTIME HEATING...AND A
MOISTENING AIRMASS...WILL RESULT IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOPING FROM LATE THIS MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...PRIMARILY
OVER LOCALES NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 20 CORRIDOR.  WEAK RIDGING
ALOFT...ALONG WITH SOME DRIER AIR ALOFT...LOOKS TO KEEP RAIN CHANCES
SCARCE OVER MY SOUTH.

A FEW SEVERE STORMS REMAIN POSSIBLE FROM MIDDAY INTO EARLY THIS
EVENING.  AGAIN...INCREASING INSTABILITY DURING THE DAY...STEEP MID-
LEVEL LAPSE RATES ON THE ORDER OF 7.5-8 C/KM AND 28-30C VERTICAL
TOTALS...COULD YIELD A FEW ROBUST STORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE
HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS.  AT THE MOMENT...THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR THIS
REMAINS NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 20 CORRIDOR.  HERE...THERE REMAINS A
BETTER COMBINATION OF THE ABOVE PARAMETERS...IN ADDITION TO BETTER
FORCING...AND LESS INFLUENCE FROM THE WEAK RIDGING/DRIER AIR
PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED ACROSS MY SOUTH. MOST CONVECTION WILL WIND DOWN
AFTER SUNSET...BUT SOME COULD LINGER ACROSS MY NORTH A LITTLE LATER
INTO THE NIGHT.

CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS REMAIN IN THE FORECAST WEDNESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  THIS WILL BE AS A RESULT OF A SHORTWAVE...
CURRENTLY SEEN ON SATELLITE AS A CLOSED LOW OVER THE BAJA
PENINSULA...SHIFTING EAST OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND INTO THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY.  AHEAD OF THE SHORTWAVE...RIDGING
BUILDING EAST THROUGH THE REGION WILL CAUSE THE BOUNDARY TO LIFT
NORTH AND OUT OF THE FORECAST AREA.  DESPITE THE TROUGH WEAKENING AS
IT APPROACHES AND MOVES THROUGH THE CWA...WITH A WARM MOIST AND
UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER THE REGION...IT'LL STILL BE ABLE TO SPARK SOME
CONVECTION OVER THE REGION WEDNESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT. /19/

THURSDAY THROUGH NEXT MONDAY...AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD
MID/UPPER LEVEL COLD CORE CURRENTLY LOCATED NEAR BAJA WILL HAVE
OPENED UP AND PHASED INTO THE WESTERLY FLOW TO A POSITION JUST WEST
OF THE AREA. IN THE LOWER LEVELS...SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL BE FIRMLY
ESTABLISHED WITH WIDESPREAD MID 60S DEWPOINTS.

WITH THE ASCENT FROM THE PASSING WAVE...EXPECT TO HAVE A GOOD
SCATTERING OF DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY
LOCALIZED SURFACE FOCUS. WHILE CAPES FROM 1500-2500 J/KG WILL BE
COMMON ACROSS THE AREA AS FUEL FOR THE STORMS...SEVERE POSSIBILITIES
DO NOT LOOK THAT IMPRESSIVE AT THE MOMENT GIVEN NEAR 6 C/KM H7-H5
LAPSE RATES AND LOW DEEP LAYER SHEAR VALUES.

VEERING WINDS IN THE COLUMN AFTER THE WAVE PASSES WILL ALLOW DRIER
AIR TO MOVE INTO THE COLUMN OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY AROUND H85
ALLOWING A STRONG CAP TO DEVELOP. AT THE SURFACE...BELOW THE
INVERSION...LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL MAINTAIN MOISTURE LEVELS
WITH MID 60S DEWPOINTS CONTINUING OVER THE AREA.

MORE IMPRESSIVE WAVE WILL PULL OUT OF THE ROCKIES THURSDAY EVENING
AS SURFACE LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS OVER THE PANHANDLE OF TX AND BEGINS
DRAGGING A DEVELOPING COLD FRONT EAST OVERNIGHT. CONVECTION LOOKS TO
BE HELD AT BAY FOR THE MOST PART DURING THE MORNING HOURS FRIDAY AS
LOW LEVEL CAP HOLDS STRONG. HOWEVER...INCREASING MOISTURE ADVECTION
THROUGH THE CAPPING LAYER SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO BREAK IT DOWN
IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY BY NOON.

EXPECT A SQUALL LINE WILL BE DEVELOPING OR APPROACHING THE NW
PORTION OF THE AREA BY AFTERNOON. CAPES AROUND 2500 J/KG...H7-H5
LAPSE RATES FROM 7-8 C/KM AND 50+ KNOTS OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR SHOULD
PROMOTE A SEVERE POTENTIAL FRIDAY AFTERNOON FOR AT LEAST THE
NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA. NEAR ORTHOGONAL ORIENTATION OF
DEEP LAYER SHEAR VECTORS TO EXPECTED SQUALL LINE POSITION SUGGESTS A
DAMAGING WIND THREAT WILL EXIST.

SQUALL LINE AND FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL RACE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE
AREA BY MIDNIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FOR THE
WEEKEND. FAST PACED FLOW PATTERN WILL NOT ALLOW THE COOL AIRMASS TO
REMAIN VERY LONG. BOUNDARY WILL BEGIN BACKING UP FROM THE SW WITH
SHOWERS INVADING FROM THE WEST ONCE AGAIN BY SUNDAY. /26/
