DBWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Jackson, MS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 11, 3:52 PM CDT, 2 hours 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 11, 3:52 PM CDT, 2 hours 24 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS 352 PM CDT MON APR 11 2016 ...SEVERE WEATHER AND LOCALIZED FLOODING IS EXPECTED FOR THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT... .SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT) THE PRIMARY CONCERN WILL BE OUR CHANCES OF SEVERE WEATHER AND SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING THROUGH TONIGHT. LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWED A SPLIT FLOW PATTERN WITH A BROAD UPPER TROUGH EXTENDING FROM THE SOUTHWEST US TO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. THE BEST COLD TOPS WAS NOTED OVER SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS INTO THE NORTHWEST DELTA REGION. STRONG ASCENT FROM THE SUBSTROPICAL JET WAS MOVING INTO THE REGION. A STRONG SHORT WAVE WAS NOTED ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. MID TO UPPER DIVERGENCE FROM THE ACTIVE SUBSTROPICAL JET WAS COMING OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE LOWER MISS VALLEY. AREA RADARS WERE PICKING UP SOME CONVECTION ACROSS THE REGION. ON THE SURFACE A COLD FRONT WAS NOTED ACROSS ARKANSAS HEADING SLOWLY TOWARD THE NORTHWEST DELTA. PWATS OF AROUND 1.8 OVER SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA WAS SURGING TOWARD THE REGION. LOOKING AT THE SEVERE POTENTIAL. FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT SPC HAS A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN EFFECT FOR OUR WESTERN AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF INTERSTATE 55 UNTIL 7 PM. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW GOOD LOW LEVEL AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR ACROSS THE REGION WITH MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES OF AROUND 6-7C. MODEL SNDGS CONTINUE TO SHOW A DECENT CURVE IN THE HODOGRAPHS FOR SOME TORNADO POTENTIAL. SO THERE WILL BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND SHEAR FOR SOME SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL AS THE COLD FRONT COMES DOWN TONIGHT. CONVECTIVE MODE MODELS SHOWS SOME SUPERCELLS MOVING ACROSS THE REGION FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY A CONVECTIVE LINE COMING IN AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. A WAVE WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO SLOW IT DOWN SOME BEFORE IT FINALLY PUSHES THROUGH. SO WITH THE GRAPHICAST WE WILL KEEP THE ELEVATED RISK GENERALLY JUST EAST OF THE I-55 CORRIDOR WITH THE LIMITED RISK TO THE EAST. THE PRIMARY RISK WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS...HAIL UP TO GOLF BALL SIZE AND SOME TORNADOES. LOOKING AT THE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL. AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH TONIGHT A WAVE WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT WHICH WILL SLOW IT DOWN. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR SOME TRAINING OF CELLS AROUND THE BOUNDARY...BEFORE THE FRONT IS ABLE TO MOVE. THE CONVECTIVE MODE MODELS HAVE BEEN ALL OVER THE PLACE AS FAR AS FAR AS THE PLACEMENT OF THE HEAVY RAINS...ANYWHERE FROM NORTH OF I-20 TO SOUTH OF I-20. DURING THE LAST FEW HOURS THE SHORT TERM MODEL HAS SHOWN THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL SPREAD OVER MOST OF THE REGION...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS OF 4 PLUS INCHES. WE ARE GENERALLY EXPECTING AROUND 2 TO 4 INCHES ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION. THE HEAVIER RAINS SHOULD BE TAPERING OFF FROM THE WEST BY AFTER MIDNIGHT. FOR TUESDAY THE FRONT WILL BE EXITING THE REGION DURING THE MORNING AS THE STRONG SHORT WAVE MOVES THROUGH THE CWA. THE CONVECTION WILL BE TAPERING OFF FROM THE NORTHWEST DURING THE MORNING AND MAY LINGER SOME IN THE SOUTHEAST DURING THE AFTERNOON BEFORE ENDING BY TUESDAY NIGHT. A COOLER AIRMASS WILL PUSH INTO THE REGION. HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM THE MIDDLE 60S NORTH TO THE MIDDLE 70S SOUTHEAST. FOR TUESDAY NIGHT WE WILL GET A BRIEF BREAK IN THE RAINS BEFORE A SOUTHERN STREAM SYSTEM WITH A COASTAL SURFACE LOW APPROACHES. IT WILL PROVIDE SOME ISENTROPIC LIFT FOR SOME SHOWERS IN THE SOUTHWEST...MAINLY AFTER MIDNIGHT. WITH THE CLOUDS HANGING AROUND IT WILL HINDER NIGHT TIME LOWS SOME. LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE UPPER 40S NORTH TO THE MIDDLE 50S SOUTH. AS WE MOVE INTO WEDNESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT ANOTHER SHORTWAVE COMING FROM THE PLAINS WILL PUSH ANOTHER SYSTEM INTO THE REGION WITH A COASTAL SURFACE LOW. MODELS HAVE BEEN PERSISTENT IN KEEPING THE HIGHER RAINFALL TOTALS SOUTH OF THE CWA. THERE WILL BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY FOR SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH THIS SYSTEM. DO NOT SEE ANY SEVERE POTENTIAL WITH THIS SYSTEM AT THIS TIME. HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY WILL BE IN THE UPPER 60S NORTH TO THE LOWER 70S SOUTH. LOWS FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER TO UPPER 50S./17/ .LONG TERM (THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)... WE WILL CONTINUE WITH OUR SOUTHERN STREAM SYSTEM AFFECTING THE ARKLAMISS FROM WEDNESDAY. THE LATEST 12Z MODELS SHOWS THE POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF A REX BLOCK OVER THE EASTERN CONUS WHICH 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. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THE BEST CHANCES OF RAIN TO BE CONFINED TO THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE ARKLAMISS. SO WITH THIS IN MIND WILL NOT MENTION ANY HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL FOR THE MIDWEEK PERIOD FOR THE HWO/GRAPHIC. 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. WE SHOULD GET A BREAK IN THE WEATHER FOR FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT AS THE REX BLOCK HOLDS A SYSTEM OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. OUR RAIN CHANCES WILL COME BACK IN THE WEST AS THE REX BLOCK WEAKENS TO A BLOCKING RIDGE FOR SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT./17/ && .AVIATION...MVFR CIGS THIS AFTERNOON IN NUMEROUS SHRA AND SCATTERED TSRA WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA. THESE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE OVERNIGHT WITH VSBYS BECOMING IMPACTED IN THE 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/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
