AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
525 AM CST SUN DEC 27 2015

...POTENT SYSTEM TO BRING SEVERE WEATHER RISK TONIGHT INTO EARLY
MONDAY...

.DISCUSSION...TODAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...THE CENTER OF A VERY
POTENT UPPER LOW IS CURRENTLY PUSHING EAST INTO THE BIG BEND AREA OF
TX AND HELPING TO PRODUCE BLIZZARD-LIKE CONDITIONS ACROSS PARTS OF
EASTERN NM AND WESTERN TX. ON THE WARM SIDE OF THE SYSTEM...A SAGGING
COLD FRONT WORKED WITH ENERGY FROM THE INCOMING SYSTEM TO PRODUCE
DESTRUCTIVE SEVERE WEATHER NEAR THE RED RIVER VALLEY LATE YESTERDAY.
UNFORTUNATELY THIS POWERHOUSE SYSTEM WILL BE HEADING OUR WAY LATER
TODAY.

INCREASING SOUTHERLY FLOW AND ATTENDANT GULF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
ADVECTION INLAND HAS ALREADY BEEN INSTIGATING SPOTTY SHOWERS
OVERNIGHT IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN MS. EXPECT THIS TREND TO CONTINUE
THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON ALTHOUGH ACTIVITY SHOULD NOT BE SIGNIFICANT
AND WILL NOT GREATLY HINDER WIDESPREAD WARMING INTO THE UPPER 70S TO
LOWER 80S (WHICH WILL AGAIN SET AT LEAST SOME RECORD HIGHS). THE
SAGGING COLD FRONT MENTIONED ABOVE WILL BE GRADUALLY OOZING THIS WAY
AND BY LATER THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD GET NEAR THE NORTHWESTERN BORDER
OF THE ARKLAMISS BEFORE STALLING. IT IS NEAR THIS BOUNDARY AND AT
OTHER POINTS WEST OF THE MS RIVER WHERE CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS WILL INCREASE AFTER MIDDAY...WHILE ELSEWHERE COVERAGE OF
CONVECTION SHOULD REMAIN IN THE 20 TO 30 PERCENT COVERAGE RANGE AT
BEST BEFORE DARK. AT THIS JUNCTURE WE ARE NOT ANTICIPATING MUCH IN
THE WAY OF A SEVERE WEATHER RISK WITH ANY STORMS BEFORE
DARK...LARGELY OWING TO THE FACT THAT WIND SHEAR AND ATMOSPHERIC
LIFT WILL WAIT UNTIL THIS EVENING TO BEGIN DRAMATICALLY INCREASING.

THIS EVENING THROUGH EARLY MONDAY IS THE MAIN TIME FRAME WHEN OUR
REGION SHOULD RECEIVE A BIG IMPACT FROM THE INCOMING DISTURBANCE.
THE PRIMARY OFFENDER WILL BE A SQUALL LINE THAT WILL BLAST ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA FROM ROUGHLY MIDNIGHT THROUGH AROUND 9 AM MONDAY
MORNING (AND TAKE NOTE THAT ANTICIPATED TIMING OF THIS FEATURE HAS
SLOWED A TOUCH FROM PREVIOUS THINKING). THE MAIN THREAT WITH THIS
LINE SHOULD BE DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...ALTHOUGH EMBEDDED TORNADOES ARE
A DECENT POSSIBILITY. THE GREATEST RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER STILL
APPEARS TO BE ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF ZONES WHERE STORM DYNAMICS
AND SHEAR WILL BE MOST WORRISOME...SO THE HWO WILL NOT BE CHANGED
MUCH. HOWEVER...THERE IS STILL SOME POTENTIAL LATER UPDATES MAY
INCLUDE A RISK OF SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER IN WESTERN
ZONES...PARTICULARLY IN THE ARKLAMISS DELTA...MAINLY BECAUSE THE
PRESENCE OF THE PRECEDING STALLED FRONT SHOULD INCREASE BAROCLINITY.
BUT AT THIS POINT UNCERTAINTY OVER SQUALL LINE ORIENTATION KEPT US
FROM UPGRADING QUITE YET - IF HIGH RES MODELS CAN DEVELOP A
CONSENSUS OF A SIGNIFICANTLY NEGATIVELY-TILTED ORIENTATION OF THE
SQUALL-LINE THEN CONFIDENCE OF TORNADOES AND WIDESPREAD WIND DAMAGE
WOULD INCREASE. AS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY...SQUALL-LINE MOVEMENT WILL
BE RELATIVELY QUICK AND SHOULD LIMIT RAIN AMOUNTS TO A QUICK ONE OR
TWO INCHES AT MOST. BUT THIS STILL MAY BE ENOUGH TO CAUSE A FEW
FLOODING ISSUES GIVEN SATURATED GROUND.

OF COURSE MORE-THAN-BRIEF IMPACT FROM PRE-SQUALL THUNDERSTORMS COULD
GREATLY INCREASE FLOODING POTENTIAL AND...STARTING IN THE
EVENING...ANY SUCH STORMS WILL HAVE A NON-NEGLIGIBLE POTENTIAL TO
EVOLVE INTO SUPERCELLS AND THEN PRESENT THEIR OWN SEVERE WEATHER
RISK (INCLUDING TORNADOES). ONCE AGAIN...THIS SECONDARY RISK WILL BE
GREATEST IN WESTERN ZONES AND PARTICULARLY IN THE ARKLAMISS DELTA.

BY LATER ON IN THE MORNING ON MONDAY THE SQUALL LINE SHOULD BE
SHIFTING EAST INTO ALABAMA QUICKLY AND LINGERING RAIN AND RUMBLES OF
THUNDER WILL LIKELY NOT TAKE TERRIBLY LONG TO DEPART
ALTOGETHER...THANKS TO DRY-SLOTTING ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE SYSTEM.
ALTHOUGH AIR COLD ENOUGH FOR SNOW IS WRAPPED UP IN THE UPPER LOW WAY
OUT IN THE HIGH PLAINS OF WESTERN TX RIGHT NOW WE EXPECT ONLY A VERY
DILUTED FORM OF THAT COOLER AIR TO MAKE IT EAST INTO THE LOWER MS
VALLEY. THAT SAID...TEMPERATURES BY LATE MONDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE
FROM THE MID 30S TO MID 40S (WHICH MIGHT SEEM DRASTIC CONSIDERING IT
WILL BE SOME 30 DEGREES WARMER THAN THIS MORNING/S LOWS). /BB/

TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

THE GUIDANCE IS BECOMING A BIT MORE BULLISH WITH A ROUND OF SIGNIFICANT
RAINFALL FORECAST TO DEVELOP TUESDAY NIGHT AND LAST INTO WEDNESDAY
OVER ROUGHLY THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE ARKLAMISS. THE NEXT SHORTWAVE
TROUGH TO ENTER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS WILL HELP TO BACK THE LOW LEVEL
FLOW OVER THE LOWER MS VALLEY REGION. AS THIS HAPPENS...THE STALLED
BAROCLINIC ZONE ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF THE STUBBORN SOUTHEAST CONUS
RIDGE WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT BACK TO THE NORTHWEST. INCREASING
ISENTROPIC LIFT IN A CONVECTIVELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS SHOULD YIELD
WIDESPREAD RAIN AND ELEVATED THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. UPPER LEVEL JET
SUPPORT COMBINED WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES NEAR 1.5 INCHES COULD
RESULT IN LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. THE ECMWF HAS BEEN MOST BULLISH AND
A FEW ECENS MEMBERS ARE QUITE HEAVY. INCREASING SUPPORT FROM THE
SREF/GEFS GIVES A LITTLE MORE CONFIDENCE THAT THE HEAVIER ECMWF IS ON
THE RIGHT TRACK. FOR NOW WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR NEW GUIDANCE AND
HOLD OFF ON ANY HEAVY RAIN MENTION IN THE HWO/GRAPHICS AS IT APPEARS
TO BE A MARGINAL EVENT AT MOST.

AS WE GO LATER INTO THE WEEK AND THE NEW YEAR...A BIG PATTERN CHANGE
IS IN STORE FOR THE ARKLAMISS. MODELS GENERALLY AGREE THAT RIDGING
ALONG THE WEST COAST WILL FORCE NORTHERLY FLOW AND THE INFLUX OF COLD
POLAR AIR INTO THE ARKLAMISS AND SUPPRESSION OF THE SOUTHEAST CONUS
RIDGE. WHILE THE INTENSITY OF THE COLD SHOULD NOT BE ANOMALOUS...IT
WILL FEEL THAT WAY DUE TO THE RECENT WARMTH. CURRENT FORECAST HIGH
TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 40S WOULD BE AROUND 35 DEG F COLDER THAN
CURRENTLY BEING EXPERIENCED. TO ADD TO THE CHILL...EXTENSIVE MID/HIGH
LEVEL CLOUDINESS ASSOCIATED WITH A MINOR PERTURBATION SHOULD LIMIT
HEATING FRIDAY AND POTENTIALLY KEEP HIGHS LOWER THAN FORECAST. EXPECT
THE COLDER PATTERN TO PERSIST INTO THE WEEKEND AND LIKELY BEYOND.
/EC/

&&

.AVIATION...MAINLY MVFR FLIGHT CATS WILL BE FOUND ACROSS THE AREA
THIS MORNING AND INTO AT LEAST MIDDAY...MAINLY DUE TO CEILINGS. SOME
AREAS WILL MANAGE TO BREAK OUT TO VFR BY AFTERNOON ALTHOUGH CEILINGS
ABOVE THE 4 KFT LEVEL WILL BE BRIEF AT BEST THROUGH THE DAYLIGHT
HOURS. THE POTENTIAL FOR MVFR WILL INCREASE AGAIN THIS EVENING WITH
THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS INCREASING DRAMATICALLY OVERNIGHT.
OF COURSE TEMPORARY IFR TO LIFR CONDITIONS COULD ACCOMPANY ANY
THUNDERSTORMS...ALONG WITH SEVERE TURBULENCE. WINDS WILL BE FROM THE
SOUTHEAST AND SOUTH TODAY AND GUSTING OVER 20 MPH AT TIMES WITH
WINDS GETTING STRONGER AND MORE OF AN ISSUE HEADING INTO THIS
EVENING. /BB/
