AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
242 PM CDT SUN MAY 1 2016

.DISCUSSION...

A COLD FRONT CURRENTLY STRETCHES FROM NEAR PARIS TENNESSEE TO
MEMPHIS...TO MONTICELLO ARKANSAS. THERE IS ALMOST A SOLID LINE OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THAT HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG THE FRONT. A
MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS SITS AHEAD OF THE FRONT AS DEWPOINTS
HAVE RISEN INTO THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S THIS AFTERNOON. CAPE
VALUES ARE 2500-3000 J/KG AHEAD OF THE FRONT. AS A RESULT...THESE
STORMS COULD QUICKLY BECOME STRONG TO SEVERE INTO THE EVENING
HOURS. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT.

AFTER SUNSET...EXPECT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO BEGIN TO
DIMINISH THANKS TO THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. HOWEVER...THE
FRONT WILL LIKELY STILL BE IN THE VICINITY OF A CAMDEN TENNESSEE
TO CLARKSDALE MISSISSIPPI LINE. MODELS INDICATING A SFC LOW WILL
DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT IN NORTHEAST TEXAS AND MOVE NORTHEAST
OVERNIGHT AS A SHORTWAVE SWINGS INTO THE AREA. THE NAM AND ECMWF
HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT ON SHOWING WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH BY MONDAY MORNING.

MONDAY WILL BE WET AND COOL ACROSS THE MIDSOUTH. HIGHS WILL RANGE
FROM THE UPPER 60S TO THE LOWER 70S. HAVE BUMPED UP POPS ACROSS
THE AREA.

THE FRONT WILL FINALLY BEGIN TO SHIFT SOUTHEAST BY MONDAY EVENING
AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE SWINGS AROUND THE BASE OF THE UPPER TROF. AS
A RESULT...BEST CHANCES FOR SHOWERS WILL ALSO SHIFT SOUTHEAST TO
NORTHEAST MISSISSIPPI. HOWEVER...SMALL CHANCES FOR SHOWERS WILL
CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE MOVES INTO THE REGION.

BY TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...THE UPPER TROF WILL FINALLY
BEGIN TO SHIFT TO THE EAST COAST. MODELS ARE SHOWING A REINFORCING
COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY. BOTH THE NAM AND
THE GFS SHOW SHOWERS COULD DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT AND AFFECT
AREAS OF WEST TENNESSEE NEAR THE TENNESSEE RIVER. HAVE ADDED POPS.

SFC HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE AREA FROM THURSDAY THROUGH
NEXT WEEKEND. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COOL ON THURSDAY BUT THEN A
WARMING TREND WILL BEGIN AS AN UPPER RIDGE MOVES INTO THE AREA BY
SATURDAY. AS A RESULT...HIGHS WILL BE BACK INTO THE 80S BY THE
LATTER PART OF THE WEEKEND.

.AVIATION...

A COLD FRONT IS SITUATED FROM KUCY TO KPBF. KJBR IS WEST OF THE
FRONT SO EXPECT VFR CONDS THERE WITH LIGHT NW WINDS THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT. EXPECT SCATTERED SHRAS AND TSRAS TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF
THIS FRONT. ADDED VCTS TO KMEM/KMKL/KTUP FOR THIS AFTERNOON INTO
EARLY THIS EVENING. VFR CONDS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT WITH LIGHT AND
VARIABLE WINDS BECOMING LIGHT NORTHWEST LATE. CONFIDENCE TOWARD
THE END OF THE PERIOD IS LOW. ATTM EXPECT AN AREA OF SHRAS WITH
EMBEDDED TSRAS TO MOVE NE INTO THE MIDSOUTH MONDAY MORNING AS LOW
PRESSURE TRACKS ALONG THE VERY SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT.
