AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
518 PM CST TUE FEB 23 2016

.DISCUSSION...

LATE AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...

THE SEVERE WEATHER EVENT IS ONGOING AS WE HEAD FROM THE LATE
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. A DEEPENING TROUGH CROSSING THE ARKLATEX
REGION IS CAUSING MASSIVE PRESSURE FALLS WITH STRENTHENING LIFT/WIND
SHEAR OVER THE ARKLAMISS AND WIDESPREAD RAIN/THUNDERSTORMS. THE
WIDESPREAD NATURE OF RAIN IS HELPING TO LIMIT THE STRONG TORNADO
POTENTIAL TO AREAS ALONG/S OF THE HWY 84 CORRIDOR. CONVECTION HAS
ORGANIZED/INTENSIFIED AT THE NOSE OF THE DRY SLOT NEAR SFC LOW OVER
WEST CENTRAL MS AND ADDITIONAL SEVERE WEATHER IS OCCURRING WITH THIS
ACTIVITY. LATEST HRRR GUIDANCE ACCELERATED TIMING EARLIER TODAY AND
DOESN'T WASTE MUCH TIME GETTING THE PRIMARY SEVERE THREAT EAST OF
THE ARKLAMISS BY MID EVENING WITH DIMINISHING SHOWER/TSTM CHANCES
THEREAFTER...SOME HAIL/DAMAGING WIND THREAT COULD LINGER BEHIND THE
TORNADO THREAT WELL INTO THE NIGHT. HAVE KEPT THE WIND ADVISORY GOING
FOR THE ENTIRE AREA DUE TO THE STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT EXPECTED.

WITH THE TROUGH SWINGING EAST ACROSS THE AREA LATE TONIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY...EXPECT COLD ADVECTION AND RESULT IN OCCASIONAL LIGHT
RAIN/DRIZZLE. THE RAIN COMBINED WITH WINDY CONDITIONS (WIND ADVISORY
EXTENDED THROUGH WEDNESDAY OVER THE DELTA) AND COLDER TEMPERATURES
WILL MAKE FOR AN UNCOMFORTABLE DAY...BUT BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPERATURES
ARE EXPECTED TO BE TOO WARM FOR ANY SNOW IN SPITE OF VERY COLD
TEMPERATURES JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE. EXPECT THE LIGHT RAIN TO END
LATE IN THE DAY WITH DRY AND CHILLY CONDITIONS FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
/EC/

LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...COOLER BELOW NORMAL TEMPS AND
DRIER CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED FOR THE REST OF THE WORK WEEK AS WE
STAY UNDER A BROAD UPPER TROUGH. A DRY COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE OUR
COOLER AIRMASS ON THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION
ON FRIDAY. A WEAK SHORT WAVE WILL PASS THROUGH THE REGION ON SATURDAY
BRINGING SOME HIGH CLOUDS. HIGH PRESSURE WILL SWING EAST OF THE
REGION OVER THE WEEKEND PROVIDING SOME RETURN FLOW. UPPER FLAT
RIDGING WILL PUSH INTO THE CWA FROM THE WEST OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS
WILL PROVIDE MILDER TEMPERATURES FOR THE REGION. A SHORT WAVE TROUGH
ASSOCIATED WITH A COLD FRONT WILL PROVIDE OUR NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN FOR
SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY. THE MODELS WERE NOT IN GOOD AGREEMENT
WITH THE RAIN CHANCES FOR LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...SO POPS WERE
LOWERED SOME. THE EURO HAD ONLY LIGHT RAIN CHANCES ON MONDAY WITH THE
FRONT HANGING TO THE NORTH....AND CANADIAN LOOK TO BE DRY FOR THAT
PERIOD WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. HOWEVER MOST OF THE GFS ENSEMBLES
HAD RAIN WITH THE FRONT./17/

&&

.AVIATION...MVFR CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WERE ONGOING AND WILL CONTINUE TO
CAUSE LIFR/MVFR CONDITIONS AT MOST SITES THROUGH AT LEAST 5Z. RIGHT
NOW IT LOOKS LIKE LIGHT RAIN MAY CONTINUE THROUGH AT 12Z. EXPECTING
LOW CLOUDS AND FOG ALSO. WINDS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO INCREASE ACROSS
THE REGION...MAINLY FOR GLH/GWO AND MAYBE JAN. WILL CONTINUE
SUSTAINED WINDS NEAR 20KTS AND HIGHER GUSTS AT GLH. WILL GO WITH 15
TO 20KTS AT JAN/GWO MAINLY AFTER 6Z. LOOKS LIKE IT MAY BE TOMORROW
AFTERNOON BEFORE VFR CONDITIONS DEVELOP. /7/
