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 14, 3:32 PM CDT, 57 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 14, 3:32 PM CDT, 57 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
332 PM CDT THU APR 14 2016

.SHORT TERM...
THE UPPER LOW IS STILL LOCATED OVER NORTHERN ARKANSAS THIS AFTERNOON.
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS THE AREA ARE BEING FUELED BY
DECENT CAPE VALUES PAIRED WITH GOOD MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES. HAVE ONLY
RECEIVED A FEW REPORTS OF QUARTER SIZE HAIL WITH PEA TO DIME SIZE
MOST LIKELY. WITH ABOUT 35 KT BULK SHEAR THE STORMS ARE SLOW MOVING.
ONE STORM THOUGH NEAR BROOKHAVEN ATTM SEEMS TO BE OVER-ACHIEVING
WITH GOLF BALL SIZE HAIL.

OVERNIGHT...THE LOW WILL BEGIN ITS SHIFT TO THE EAST. BY 12Z EXPECT
IT TO BE CENTERED OVER NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI. SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT, THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY AND EVENTUALLY
DISSIPATE IN COVERAGE FRIDAY EVENING AS RIDGING STARTS TO BUILD INTO
THE AREA. INSTABILITY REALLY STARTS TO WANE AFTER 00Z TONIGHT AND
NEVER REAPPEARS WITH THIS SYSTEM. THEREFORE DO NOT EXPECT ANY SEVERE
STORMS TOMORROW.

CLOUDS WILL REMAIN ABUNDANT OVER THE REGION UNTIL SATURDAY NIGHT
WHEN THE UPPER RIDGE REALLY STARTS TO SETTLE IN. HIGH TEMPS IN THE
UPPER 60S/LOW 70S WILL BE SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE AGAIN ON FRIDAY AS
CLOUDS REMAIN SOCKED IN TO THE AREA. LOWS IN THE 50S ARE ABOUT
NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. /10/

.LONG TERM...
SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

WE WILL HAVE AN INTERESTING UPPER PATTERN AS WE START WITH A REX
BLOCK OVER THE EASTERN CONUS...WHICH WILL TRANSITION TO A HIGHER
LATITUDE OMEGA BLOCK EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL KEEP A SLOW MOVING
UPPER TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN CONUS AT BAY. WITH THIS PATTERN STILL
LOOKING AT A MOSTLY DRY CONDITIONS OVER THE ARKLAMISS FOR THE
WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

AS THE REX BLOCK PATTERN TRANSITIONS INTO AN OMEGA BLOCK THIS
WEEKEND...THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL GENERALLY BECOME FIXED ALONG
THE MS RIVER VALLEY. HIGHER HEIGHTS AND SUBSIDENCE ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS RIDGE POSITION SHOULD ENSURE MOSTLY DRY AND CONTINUED MILD DAYS
AND COOL NIGHTS FOR THE ARKLAMISS GOING FROM THE WEEKEND INTO
MONDAY. KEPT ANY LOW CHANCES OF RAIN MAINLY WEST OF THE MS RIVER FOR
SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. AS WE MOVE INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE
WORK WEEK THE PATTERN WILL TRANSITION AS THE UPPER TROUGH WILL BE
SQUEEZED OUT BY TWO BLOCKING RIDGES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE FEATURE.
THIS WILL BECOME AN HIGH OVER LOW BLOCK OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE
CONUS. THERE WILL BE AN ACTIVE SOUTHERN STREAM TO THE SOUTH WITH A
SERIES OF DISTURBANCES PUSHING THROUGH. THE ECMWF AND GFS BOTH BRING
A DISTURBANCE INTO THE REGION FOR TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. OUR RAIN
CHANCES WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND AS A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES
CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO THE SOUTHERN STREAM. /17/

&&

.AVIATION...
A CONGLOMERATION OF CLOUDS AND CONVECTION THROUGHOUT THE NEXT 24
HOURS WILL RESULT IN MAINLY MVFR FLIGHT CATEGORIES AT MOST SITES.
SOME BRIEF PERIODS OF IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE IF HEAVIER
CONVECTION IS OBSERVED ON-STATION. A FEW SEVERE STORMS ARE ALSO
POSSIBLE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE AREA.
HAIL TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS AND GUSTY WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH
THESE SEVERE STORMS. PREVAILING WINDS THIS AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT
WILL BE FROM THE EAST BETWEEN 3-8 KNOTS. /19/
