Special Weather Statement, NWS Jackson, MS

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
1025 AM CST THU MAR 3 2016

.UPDATE... SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE STREAMING FROM
WEST TO EAST ACROSS CENTRAL AND EAST-CENTRAL MS CURRENTLY...IN
RESPONSE TO AN INCOMING POTENT WEATHER DISTURBANCE ACTIVATING A
BAROCLINIC ZONE RUNNING FROM THE ARKLATEX ESE TOWARD THE CENTRAL
GULF COAST. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE DEEPENING OFF TO OUR WEST SHOULD
MOVE INTO THE HEART OF THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON AND HELP KINK SAID
BAROCLINIC ZONE...BRIEFLY HELPING TO CONGREGATE DEEP LOW LEVEL
INSTABILITY A LITTLE INLAND OF THE GULF COAST. THIS ZONE SHOULD
EXTEND NORTH INTO MY SOUTHEAST ZONE THIS AFTERNOON AND HERE WIND
SHEAR SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED
WITH A NON-ZERO TORNADO POTENTIAL. LATEST HRRR RUNS BEAR OUT THIS
POTENTIAL WELL...ALTHOUGH IT DOES LOOK LIKE LIKELIHOOD OF SEVERE
ACTIVITY MAY INCREASE AS SURFACE-BASED CONVECTION BEGINS TO
TRANSITION SOUTHEAST OF OUR FORECAST AREA LATE THIS AFTERNOON. ALL
THIS BEING SAID...THE LIMITED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
PREVIOUSLY POSTED IN THE HWO/GRAPHICS FOR OUR SE ZONES LOOKS
GOOD...ALTHOUGH WE DID UPDATE TIMING TO FOCUS MORE ON THIS AFTERNOON
AND WE ALSO INCLUDED SOME WORDING RELATED TO THE SMALL POSSIBILITY
OF A TORNADO IN THAT NECK-OF-THE-WOODS.

OTHERWISE...EXPECT A CONTINUED SMATTERING OF SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON (ESPECIALLY OVER MS COUNTIES) AS
IMPRESSIVE LIFT FROM THE INCOMING DISTURBANCE MAKES ITS PRESENCE
FELT. VERY CHILLY TEMPERATURES ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THE DISTURBANCE
IS HELPING TO INCREASE 700 TO 500 MB TEMP LAPSE RATES...DELIVERING
ELEVATED INSTABILITY EVEN WHERE THE SURFACE REMAINS COOL. IN MANY
AREAS THIS COMBO OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND COLD AIR ALOFT WILL
YIELD SOME SMALL HAIL POTENTIAL AS WE GO THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON...EVEN TO THE NORTH OF OUR LIMITED SVR RISK AREA IN SE MS.
FORTUNATELY...THINKING IS THAT TRULY SEVERE HAIL WITH ANY OF THESE
STORMS OUTSIDE OF THE LIMITED RISK WILL BE HARD TO COME BY...BUT OF
COURSE WE WILL BE MONITORING THE SITUATION CLOSELY.

FINALLY...TEMPS WILL BE TRICKY TODAY WITH A CURRENT LARGE SURFACE
TEMP GRADIENT (WARM TO CHILLY) FROM SW TO NE. EXPECT SURFACE TEMPS
MAY TRY TO RECOVER QUICKLY FROM MID TO LATE AFTERNOON IN AT LEAST
THE SOUTHWEST HALF OF ZONES...ALTHOUGH LOCATIONS IN EAST-CENTRAL MS
AND AROUND THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE MAY SEE THE SUN SET TOO SOON TO
BENEFIT. THIS UPDATE REFLECTS THIS THINKING. /BB/

&&

.AVIATION...MVFR CIGS PREVAIL ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING DUE TO
LOW STRATUS. SCT SHRA WITH SOME EMBEDDED TS ENCOMPASSED MUCH OF
CENTRAL MS. THIS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAYTIME HOURS AS
A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION. A FEW SEVERE STORMS ARE
POSSIBLE. CIGS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN THE MVFR (OCCASIONALLY IFR)
RANGE OVER MOST OF THE AREA THROUGH TONIGHT, IMPROVING TO VFR BY
EARLY FRIDAY. AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH, WINDS WILL SHIFT FROM S/SE
THIS MORNING TO W/NW THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT AS THE FRONT MOVES
SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA. A FEW GUSTS TO AROUND 20 KT ARE
POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON. /DL/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 447 AM CST THU MAR 3 2016/

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...OVERALL MAIN STORY
FOR THE SHORT TERM PERIOD ARE THE RAIN AND STORM CHANCES MOVING IN
THIS MORNING TO AFTERNOON BEFORE A QUIETER AND DRIER PERIOD IN STORE
GOING INTO THE WEEKEND.

FAST MOVING S/WV MOVING INTO SRN AR IS BRINGING A MCS INTO THE NW
DELTA EARLY THIS MORNING. DUE TO VERY LOW DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 30S
ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION...THIS WILL LIKELY REMAIN ELEVATED BUT
SOME OCCASIONAL PRECIP LOADING COULD BRING DOWN SOME QUICK GUSTY
WINDS. THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO A QUICK MOVING UPPER JET/SFC LOW
MOVING INTO NRN TX/SRN OK. EXPECT THIS TO RAPIDLY MOVE TO THE E
TODAY AND CONTINUE TO HELP INCREASE LOW LEVEL FLOW AND MOISTURE
RETURN WITH DEWPOINTS GETTING INTO THE UPPER 50S/LOWER 60S IN THE S.
OVERALL MOST OF THE ACTIVITY TODAY WILL REMAIN TAME DUE TO STRONG
LOW LEVEL INVERSION BUT AFTER THE 21Z TIMEFRAME OR SO...THAT
INVERSION SHOULD BE MOSTLY MIXED OUT AND SOME LOW LEVEL
INSTABILITY...DUE TO STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES...WILL BE ABLE TO
BE REALIZED. BASED ON HI-RES ARW AND GOOD LOW LEVEL SHEAR...WENT
AHEAD AND INTRODUCED A LIMITED IN THE HWO FOR SEVERE IN THE HWY 84
CORRIDOR. ALSO THE HIGHS TODAY WENT A LITTLE ON THE COOLER SIDE DUE
TO THE INVERSION STICKING AROUND AWHILE AND OP GFS/EURO BEING MUCH
COOLER...WENT A FEW DEGREES COOLER.

EXPECT THE ~1010MB SFC LOW AND ASSOCIATED LIFT/RAIN TO MOVE THROUGH
AFTER 00Z TONIGHT AND RAIN TO TAPER OFF BETWEEN 03-06Z FRIDAY. AFTER
THE SFC LOW MOVES THROUGH...EXPECT NW FLOW AND SFC RIDGING TO BUILD
IN AND HELP TO DRY OUT THE AREA AS PW'S FALL TO LESS THAN HALF AN
INCH. THIS WILL LEAD TO A MUCH DRIER PATTERN AND CLOUDS WILL CLEAR
OUT OF THE AREA FRIDAY AFTERNOON. A NICE AFTERNOON IS IN STORE ON
FRIDAY BUT SOME NE SFC WINDS WILL KEEP THE AREA FROM WARMING AS MUCH
WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S IN THE N TO MID/UPPER 60S IN THE S.
EXPECT ANOTHER COLD NIGHT IN STORE IN THE MID 30S IN THE E TO LOW
40S IN THE WEST. /DC/

LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...WARMING TREND BEGINS
SATURDAY AND WILL CONTINUE...ALONG WITH DRY WEATHER...THROUGH
TUESDAY. A SURFACE RIDGE WILL BE OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES SATURDAY
MORNING RESULTING IN RETURN FLOW OVER OUR CWA BUT THIS WILL BE SHORT
LIVED. A NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND WEAK SURFACE LOW WILL
MOVE SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY SATURDAY AND TO THE MID
ATLANTIC SEABOARD BY SUNDAY MORNING. THE WEAK DRY TRAILING COLD
FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH INTO OUR NORTHEAST ZONES EARLY SUNDAY MORNING
BEFORE DISSIPATING. IN ITS WAKE A 1028MB HIGH WILL BECOME CENTERED
OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY PROVIDING A LIGHT DRY
NORTHEAST TO EAST FLOW BACK ACROSS OUR CWA SUNDAY. RIDGING ALOFT
WILL STRENGTHEN JUST EAST OF OUR AREA IN RESPONSE TO A DEEPENING
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN CONUS SUNDAY INTO MONDAY.
RIDGING SURFACE AND ALOFT CENTERED OVER THE EASTERN CONUS WILL
REMAIN DOMINANT OVER OUR CWA INTO MONDAY MAINTAINING DRY WEATHER
OVER OUR CWA. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO WARM BACK ABOVE NORMAL
BY SUNDAY AND CONTINUE ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THURSDAY. THE DRY
WEATHER WILL NOT LAST THOUGH. MODELS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT WITH
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CLOSED LOW OVER MEXICO BY TUESDAY MORNING. WAA
AHEAD OF THIS LOW WILL INCREASE OVER OUR CWA TUESDAY. OUR PWATS WILL
INCREASE FROM JUST OVER AN INCH TO NEAR AN INCH AND THREE QUARTERS
BY TUESDAY EVENING OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF OUR CWA. THIS ANOMALOUS
PWAT IS WOULD BE A MAXIMUM FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. WIND FIELDS
WILL INCREASE AND COMBINE WITH INSTABILITY TO RESULT IN SEVERE STORM
POTENTIAL. THIS EXISTS BOTH THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN AS WELL AS
THE TRAINING OF STORMS OVER THE SAME AREA. THE MAIN AREA FOR SEVERE
WEATHER TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WILL BE WEST OF INTERSTATE 55
AND WL INCLUDE THIS POTENTIAL IN THE HWO. MODELS ARE SLOW TO MOVE
THIS CLOSED LOW OUT AND BOTH THE GFS AND THE ECMWF HAVE THE LOW
STILL OVER MEXICO THURSDAY EVENING. AS THE LOW SHIFTS EAST TOWARD
TEXAS TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAIN AND SEVERE
STORM POTENTIAL WILL SHIFT FARTHER EAST OVER OUR CWA. /22/
