AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
942 AM CDT MON APR 11 2016

.UPDATE...LATEST SATELLITE AND UPPER AIR ANALYSIS SHOWED A
SPLIT FLOW PATTERN WITH A BROAD UPPER TROUGH EXTENDING FROM THE
SOUTHWEST US TO THE SOUTHERN PLANS. A SERIES OF SHORT WAVES WAS
MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHERN STREAM. MID TO UPPER DIVERGENCE FROM THE
ACTIVE SUBSTROPICAL JET WAS COMING OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE
LOWER MISS VALLEY. A STRONG MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE WAS PUSHING TOWARD
THE REGION FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS.  WE WERE GETTING PRETTY GOOD
RETURN FLOW OF 35 TO 40 KNOTS OVER THE REGION. ON THE SURFACE WE HAD
AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY OVER SOUTHERN ARKANSAS AND A WEAK WARM FRONT
OVER SOUTHERN LOUISIANA INTO SOUTHEAST TEXAS. WPC HAS INCREASED THE
EXCESSIVE RAINFALL RISK AREA TO INCLUDE MOST OF THE CWA AS BOTH
BOUNDARIES CONVERGE TOWARD ONE ANOTHER FOR SOME LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL POTENTIAL. LOOKING AT AREA 12 SNDGS WE WERE GETTING STRONG
STEEP LAPSE RATES AROUND 8C IN THE MID LEVELS. WE WERE GETTING SOME
DECENT LOW LEVEL SHEAR. 0-1 SHEAR WAS AROUND 30 KNOTS. AREA RADARS
WERE PICKING UP THE FIRST WAVE OF WARM ADVECTION SHOWERS MOVING
ACROSS THE CWA. AREA RADARS WERE ALSO PICKING UP SOME STRONG
CONVECTION NEAR THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AHEAD OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY
OVER ARKANSAS. THE AIRMASS WITH THE FORCING AND INSTABILITY SHOULD
BE ABLE TO RECOVER FOR SEVERE WEATHER AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
RISK FOR THIS AFTERNOON GOING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE LATEST
HRRR KEEPS THE HEAVIEST RAINS NORTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR. LATE
MORNING TEMPS WERE IN THE 60S TO LOWER 70S. TEMPS SHOULD BE ABLE TO
REACH WELL INTO THE 70S OVER MOST AREA FOR THIS AFTERNOON. SO WITH
THIS IN MIND THE GENERAL FORECAST LOOKS TO BE ON TRACK./17/

&&

.AVIATION...VFR CIGS THIS MORNING WILL GRADUALLY BECOME MVFR BY THIS
AFTERNOON AS NUMEROUS SHRA AND SCATTERED TSRA DEVELOP ACROSS THE
AREA. THESE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE OVERNIGHT WITH VSBYS
BECOMING IMPACTED AFTER 11/21Z IN HEAVIER TSRA THAT DEVELOP TONIGHT.
GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS AT 15 TO 25 KNOTS TODAY WILL SHIFT TO THE
NORTH LATER TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH FROM NORTH TO
SOUTH./26/

&&

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...446 AM CDT MON APR 11 2016

.DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM (TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)...A RATHER COMPLICATED
FORECAST IS SHAPING UP FOR THE REGION OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS AS A
POTENT UPPER DISTURBANCE TRAVERSES A COLD FRONT SAGGING INTO THE
REGION FROM THE NORTH.

BUT FIRST THIS MORNING...THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT REMAINS WELL NORTH
OF THE REGION EXTENDING FROM THE GREAT LAKES SOUTH/WESTWARD THROUGH
MISSOURI INTO OKLAHOMA. A STRONG SOUTHERLY BREEZE HAS PERSISTED
OVERNIGHT AS A RATHER TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS OVER THE AREA.
THIS GRADIENT WILL ACTUALLY RELAX SOMEWHAT THROUGH THE DAY, AND BUFR
SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THE MIXED LAYER WILL NOT BE AS DEEP AS THE PAST FEW
DAYS. SOME WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 30 KT WILL BE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY
ACROSS THE DELTA, BUT GRADIENT WINDS AREN'T EXPECTED TO BE AS
WIDESPREAD A CONCERN AS YESTERDAY.

A FEW SHOWERS ARE ALREADY BEGINNING TO MOVE INTO OUR WESTERN ZONES.
THESE ARE ASSOCIATED WITH FORCING FROM A LEAD SHORTWAVE THAT BROUGHT
SEVERE STORMS TO OK/AR OVERNIGHT. THIS INITIAL WAVE WILL PRIMARILY
PUSH NORTH OF THE AREA DURING THE DAY WITH ONLY MODEST HEIGHT FALLS
HERE. HOWEVER, UPPER DIVERGENCE WILL BE CONSIDERABLE ON THE NOSE OF
A BUILDING SUBTROPICAL JET. THIS SHOULD PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE DAY, ESPECIALLY OVER
THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA. THERE HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT OF A SOUTHWARD
SHIFT IN QPF IN RECENT MODEL RUNS. DAYTIME POPS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED
UPWARD OVER MUCH OF THE AREA TO REFLECT THIS THINKING. AS THE FRONT
REMAINS NORTH OF THE CWA UNTIL AFTER SUNSET, THE AXIS OF SHOWERS/
STORMS COULD HANG UP ACROSS THIS SAME AREA WELL INTO THE EVENING
PRESENTING SOME POTENTIAL FOR LOCALIZED FLOODING. OUR LIMITED FLOOD
THREAT WILL BE EXTENDED A BIT FARTHER SOUTH TOWARD THE I-20 CORRIDOR,
WHICH WILL LINE UP CLOSE TO A WPC DAY 1 SLIGHT RISK FOR EXCESSIVE
RAINFALL.

AS A MORE POTENT SHORTWAVE SWINGS INTO THE REGION LATER ON TONIGHT,
IT WILL SHOVE THE COLD FRONT SOUTHWARD, PUSHING THE CORRIDOR OF
CONVECTION SOUTHWARD TO THE I-20 CORRIDOR BY AROUND MIDNIGHT AND
THROUGH THE PINE BELT BY MORNING. THERE COULD BE SOME REDEVELOPMENT
OF SHOWERS AND STORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON IN THE PINE BELT, BUT THIS
ACTIVITY IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE PARTICULARLY ROBUST AS MODEL CONSENSUS
HAS THE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA ALREADY. MOST AREAS WILL SEE A
BREAK IN PRECIP FROM THE DAYTIME TUESDAY THROUGH MUCH OF THE EVENING,
BUT A FEW SHOWERS MAY SNEAK INTO THE MISSLOU REGION BY WED MORNING AS
A SURFACE LOW DEVELOPS ALONG THE TX COAST.

WITH REGARDS TO SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL...THE ANTICIPATION OF
NUMEROUS SHOWERS EARLIER IN THE DAY THAN PREVIOUSLY ANTICIPATED
COMPLICATES AN ALREADY MURKY SITUATION WITH RELATIVELY WEAK FORCING
AND A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL THAT SUCH
DEVELOPMENT COULD LIMIT INSTABILITY OVER SOME PORTION OF THE AREA,
THUS LIMITING THE SEVERE THREAT. HOWEVER, UNTIL WE ACTUALLY SEE WHERE
THINGS ARE DEVELOPING, IT IS TOO SOON TO MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENT TO
SEVERE THREAT AREAS. GENERALLY...THE BEST OVERLAY OF SHEAR AND
INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED TO BE NEAR AND WEST OF THE MS RIVER THIS
AFTERNOON, SO THIS IS WHERE WE WILL KEEP AN ELEVATED THREAT. SOME
ADJUSTMENTS WILL BE MADE TO TIMING, HOWEVER, TO SHOW MORE OPPORTUNITY
EARLIER IN THE DAY OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE CWA. DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS AND LOWER-END SEVERE HAIL REMAIN THE PRIMARY THREATS, WITH
TORNADOES ALSO POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY ALONG/WEST OF THE MS RIVER. THE
SEVERE THREAT WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AS INSTABILITY
WANES AND GREATER SHEAR MOVES EAST OF THE AREA. /DL/

LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...THE WEATHER PATTERN IN THE
LONG RANGE WILL INITIALLY FEATURE AN ACTIVE SOUTHERN STREAM RESULTING
IN CONTINUED UNSETTLED WEATHER WITH SEASONABLY MILD TEMPERATURES. THE
POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF A REX BLOCK OVER THE EASTERN CONUS WOULD
SLOW DOWN THE PROGRESSION OF WEATHER FEATURES...AND IT WOULD MAKE FOR
LOWER FORECAST CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS AS WE GO INTO THE WEEKEND.

THE STRONG GLOBAL MODEL CONSENSUS FOR WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY IS
THAT NORTHERN GULF LOW DEVELOPMENT WILL FOCUS THE BEST CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE ARKLAMISS. THE LOW
AMPLITUDE OF THE WAVE COMBINED WITH LIMITED AIRMASS RECOVERY AHEAD
OF THE TROUGH FURTHER SUPPORT THIS IDEA. SO WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY
MENTION OF HEAVY RAINFALL IN THE HWO/GRAPHIC...BUT THIS COULD BE
SOMETHING TO MONITOR ALONG/SOUTH OF THE HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR
DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH RAIN FALLS THERE WITH THE EARLY WEEK SYSTEM.

AS THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SLOWS DOWN OVER THE ARKLAMISS REGION FROM
THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY...RAIN CHANCES COULD INCREASE SOME...BUT
RAINFALL SHOULD BE ON THE LIGHT SIDE WITH LITTLE IMPACT EXPECTED.
GOING INTO THE WEEKEND...CONSENSUS IS THAT THE REX BLOCK WOULD
EVOLVE INTO MORE OF AN OMEGA BLOCK WITH THE MID LEVEL RIDGE ALONG
THE MS RIVER VALLEY. IF THIS VERIFIES...IT WOULD HELP TO KEEP THE
FORECAST AREA DRY BY DEFLECTING SUBSEQUENT SHORTWAVE ACTIVITY. /EC/
