AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
338 PM CST SAT MAR 12 2016

.DISCUSSION...TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...A STRONG SHORT WAVE WILL
EXTEND ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING WITH ONGOING SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. IT CONTINUES TO LOOK LIKE THE BULK OF THE HEAVIEST
RAIN WILL BE WEST OF I-55 THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.
ONGOING LIGHT STRATIFORM RAINS IN THE EAST HAVE LIMITED THE
CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL FOR AREAS EAST OF I-55. THIS HAS BEEN
HIGHLIGHTED IN THE HWO AND GRAPHICAST. THE SHORT WAVE WILL EXIT THE
AREA BY LATE EVENING ALONG WITH THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. THERE WILL
CONTINUE TO BE LINGERING SHOWERS THROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT IN THE
NORTH...ENDING BY EARLY MORNING. SREF/HRRR GUIDANCE SUGGEST THE
DEVELOPMENT OF STRATUS/FOG EARLY ON SUNDAY FOR AREAS SOUTH OF
I-20...SO WILL ADD AREAS OF FOG FOR THOSE AREAS.

ANOTHER MID LEVEL LOW AND ASSOCIATED SHORT WAVE WILL MOVE INTO THE
DELTA BY LATE AFTERNOON AND MOVE ACROSS THE DELTA INTO NORTHEAST
MISSISSIPPI DURING THE EVENING HOURS. THE MODELS SUGGEST GOOD
INSTABILITY WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES OF 6.5-7.0 C/KM...SHOWALTERS OF
-2 TO -4...ML CAPES RANGING FROM 1000-1500 J/KG ALONG WITH 50-55KTS
OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR. THE MAIN RISK LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE LARGE
HAIL...BUT TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. ALTHOUGH LCL'S WILL BE
HIGH EARLY IN THE EVENING THEY WILL LOWER THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS
AS WE COOL...INCREASING THE CHANCES FOR A TORNADO.

THE SHORT WAVE WILL MOVE NORTHEAST OF THE AREA BY MIDNIGHT WITH WEAK
UPPER/SURFACE RIDGING BUILDING IN OVERNIGHT. RIDGING WILL CONTINUE
ACROSS THE AREA ON MONDAY AS A WARM DAY LOOKS ON TAP...WITH H925
TEMPS RANGING FROM 16 TO 19C ACROSS THE AREA. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL
RANGE FROM THE UPPER 70S TO LOW 80S. ANOTHER SHORT WAVE AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW/FRONT WILL MOVE FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO
THE OHIO VALLEY ON TUESDAY. WITH STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW...925 TEMPS
NEAR 20C AND COMPRESSIONAL WARMING...NEAR RECORD OR RECORD HIGHS LOOK
POSSIBLE ON TUESDAY. MAV GUIDANCE HAS COME IN WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER
80S TO AROUND 90...BUT WILL BLEND THE GFS/ECMWF WHICH GIVES HIGHS
GENERALLY IN THE MID 80S.

BOTH THE GFS/ECMWF STALL THE BOUNDARY ACROSS THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY
INTO THURSDAY WITH BETTER CHANCES FOR STORMS. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
IN BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON WITH DRYING CONDITIONS. THE GLOBAL MODELS
DIVERGE LATE IN THE WEEK WITH THE ECMWF WET WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF
SEVERE AND THE GFS COOL AND MAINLY DRY. WILL JUST GO WITH THE CONSALL
LATE IN THE PERIOD WHICH INDICATES CHANCE THUNDER FRIDAY INTO
SATURDAY./15/

&&

.AVIATION...LOOK FOR A MIX OF VFR/MVFR CONDITIONS THROUGH FOR THE
AFTERNOON EVEN WITH PRECIP AROUND. THERE WILL BE A PERIOD FOR
RESTRICTED CONDITIONS AS PRECIP ACTIVITY MOVES FROM SOUTH TO NORTH
AND ACROSS TAF SITES. LOOK FOR THE PRECIP TO LIFT OUT BETWEEN 01-06Z
AS THAT OCCURS...A TRANSITION TO IFR CEILINGS/VIS WILL OCCUR FOR
MUCH OF THE AREA WITH POTENTIAL FOR FOG AND LIFR CONDITIONS BETWEEN
THE 06-14Z TIMEFRAME. /CME/
