What 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 Nov 29, 3:49 PM CST, 2 hours 17 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 29, 3:49 PM CST, 2 hours 17 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Jackson MS
349 PM CST Tue Nov 29 2016

...SEVERE WEATHER ONGOING THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY...

.DISCUSSION...
Tonight through Wednesday...Latest satellite imagery showed a closed
upper low over Western MN. Strong southwest flow continued across the
region around the closed feature. This feature was associated with a
130 plus knot upper jet. On the surface a warm front was pushing
north bringing in a moist unstable airmass in strong low level
southerly flow in response to the developing storm system. A cold
front was located across the Southern Plains. Area radars were
picking up some isolated severe storms across the CWA with a tornado
watch in effect until 9 pm. For late this afternoon into tonight deep
strong shear, 300-400 effective helicity, and instability will
continue to increase across the region which will favor the
development of severe storms with some tornadoes possible. Latest CAM
guidance shows some isolated severe storms for this afternoon and a
broken QLCS for tonight along the cold front. A better severe risk
develops for tonight as a 40-50 knot low level jet and 0-6 km shear
60-70 knots develops. This will help to support a risk of tornadoes
across the CWA during the overnight hours. Timing across the region
will be tough to pin down due to the large window of severe weather
time from now to 4 am. With the strong low level shear in place a one
or two strong tornadoes may be possible. SPC has put some of our
northern counties for a moderate risk of severe with the strong
tornado potential. With the possibility of nighttime
tornadoes,residents are urged to have an emergency plan in place
should Watches or Warnings be issued for their location. This will be
aided by a strong shortwave moving through the Southern Plains. The
models shows a broken line moving ahead of the front across the
region for tonight. The line will be generally parallel to deep layer
flow, which will promote the linear mode of the broken line. So the
primary risks for tonight will be tornadoes, damaging winds, and
quarter sized hail. The line is expected to move out of the CWA by 4
am. QPF totals of 1 to 2 inches across eastern portions of the
forecast area indicate a marginal threat for flooding, but recent
long-term dry conditions in those areas should limit the overall
threat for flash flooding tonight. Heavy rainfall could still produce
localized flooding in low areas. In the wake of the front the rains
will exit the region by Wednesday afternoon. High pressure will build
into the region from the west during the afternoon.

As far as temps are concern lows tonight will be in the upper 40s
northwest to the lower 60s southeast. Highs for Wednesday will range
from the upper 50s northwest to the upper 60s southeast./17/

Wednesday night through next Monday....Slightly cooler drier
conditions will exist across the region behind the front Wednesday
night through Friday, as surface high pressure builds into the
forecast area and quasi-zonal flow sets up over the region.
Temperatures will be a little closer to normal through Friday as
highs range from the upper 50s and lower 60s, and overnight lows dip
back into the 30s.

Models continue to generally agree with another slug of moisture and
rain filtering into the ArkLaMiss by mid-weekend as a low pressure
system develops along the Texas Coast/Gulf of Mexico, and shifts
east northeast towards the north central gulf coast. This moisture
will overspread the forecast area late Saturday into Sunday. There
does remain some timing differences between the ECMWF, GFS, and
Canadian with regard to this system.  With this said, we should
maintain a cool rain late Saturday through at least early Monday as
temperatures during this time period will generally range from the
mid 50s to lower 60s for highs, and lows each night fall into the
middle 40s. /19/

&&

.AVIATION...
18Z TAF discussion
Increasing moisture from the south will lead to a potential for
scattered showers and some strong thunderstorms this afternoon.
General timing and location of storms will require taf amendments as
convection develops. There is greater confidence in severe storms
after 00Z Wednesday, so have timing of greatest confidence for
impacts from these storms in TAFs. Expect gusty and erratic winds,
locally heavy rainfall, and MVFR or lower conditions as showers and
storms move through each site. /17/
