AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
356 PM CDT THU JUL 23 2015
.SHORT TERM...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE PUSHING THROUGH THE NORTHEAST PARTS
OF THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON. SO FAR STORMS HAVE REMAINED RELATIVELY
TAME BUT THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM STILL EXISTS.
IN OTHER NEWS...THE ATMOSPHERE OVER NORTHEAST LA MIXED OUT PRETTY
QUICKLY THIS AFTERNOON AND HEAT INDICES HAVE STRUGGLED TO REACH
ABOVE 100 THERE. DELTA COUNTIES REMAIN THE HOTTEST IN THE AREA AND
THE MOST MISERABLE WITH HEAT INDICES OF 110+.
LOOKING AT THE BIG PICTURE...THE STALLED BOUNDARY OVER NORTH MS WILL
BEGIN PUSHING SOUTHEASTWARD TONIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY. A FEW MORE
SHORTWAVE IMPULSES WILL PUSH THROUGH THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST PART OF
MS TONIGHT THOUGH BEFORE THE BOUNDARY EXITS THE AREA. THIS WILL
LEAVE SOME RAIN CHANCES IN THE NORTH FOR THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
FRIDAY. TEMPS WILL AGAIN BE HOT ON FRIDAY WITH THE HIGHEST HEAT
INDICES IN THE DELTA REGION. A HEAT ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR
THIS AREA. SOME LOCATIONS IN NORTH MS MAY REACH CRITERIA BUT
CONFIDENCE IS LOW SINCE RAIN CHANCES AND CLOUD COVER MAY HINDER
TEMPERATURES REACHING THEIR FULL POTENTIAL.
THE BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH SOUTHWARD FRIDAY NIGHT AND END UP
DRAPED ACROSS THE FLORIDA PENINSULA BY SATURDAY. THIS WILL ALLOW THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS RIDGE TO BROADEN EASTWARD INTO THE SOUTHEAST. HEAT
INDICES WILL MOST LIKELY BE HIGHER SATURDAY THAN ON FRIDAY.
CONVECTION WILL MOSTLY BE CONFINED TO SOUTHWEST PARTS OF THE
AREA. /10/
.LONG TERM...
SATURDAY THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY...HOT CONDITIONS CURRENTLY LOOK TO
CONTINUE OVER THE WEEKEND AS HIGHS TOP OUT IN THE MID AND UPPER
90S...WITH HEAT INDICES PEAKING IN THE 104-110 RANGE. THIS COULD LEAD
TO HEAT ADVISORIES BEING EXTENDED INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND FOR AT
LEAST PORTIONS OF THE CWA.
A POTENTIAL "FLY IN THE OINTMENT" COULD BE AFTERNOON CONVECTION
ASSOCIATED WITH A BOUNDARY RETROGRADING THROUGH THE CWA...
PARTICULARLY ON SATURDAY. COVERAGE OF CONVECTION COULD HELP KEEP
BOTH TEMPERATURES AND HEAT INDICES IN CHECK IN SOME LOCALES.
HOWEVER...CONVECTION MAY NOT BE AS WIDESPREAD AS ONE WOULD THINK AS
RIDGING ALOFT WILL AGAIN BE FLEXING ITS MUSCLE OVER THE REGION FROM
THE WEST.
IN THE WAKE OF THE RETROGRADING BOUNDARY...WHICH ESSENTIALLY LOOKS
TO WASH-OUT EARLY IN THE WORK WEEK...MODELS ARE HINTING AT SOME
SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR ADVECTING INTO THE REGION THROUGH AT LEAST MID-
WEEK UNDER EAST TO SOUTHEAST FLOW. STILL...RAIN CHANCES LOOK SCARCE
AS RIDGING ALOFT AND AT THE SURFACE AGAIN BECOME AND REMAIN THE
PREDOMINATE FEATURES OVER THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE EXTENDED
PERIOD.
HIGHS EACH AFTERNOON...MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY LOOK TO CONTINUE TO
TOP OUT IN THE MID AND UPPER 90S. EVEN WITH THE SLIGHTLY DRIER DEW
POINTS...AFTERNOON HEAT INDEX VALUES CURRENTLY LOOK TO BE THE 100-
110 RANGE. LOWS EACH NIGHT THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL BE IN THE MID
AND UPPER 70S. /19/
&&
.AVIATION...FOR THE TAF PERIOD EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS ALTHOUGH
AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF HEAVY DOWNPOURS (AND
THUS BRIEF CAT RESTRICTIONS DOWN TO IFR) WILL BE POSSIBLE AT
GLH/GWO/GTR/CBM/NMM/MEI. OTHERWISE EXPECT SURFACE WINDS TO BE MAINLY
FROM THE WEST OR SOUTHWEST AND AT OR LESS THAN 10 MPH./17/
