The radar

The Jackson/Brandon,MS radar (KDGX), 75 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 02:46 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Jackson, MS (KJAN), launched 00:00Z, 2.7 hours before the alert went out and 65 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

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 Jun 18, 9:31 PM CDT, 13 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 18, 9:31 PM CDT, 13 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Jackson MS
931 PM CDT Sun Jun 18 2017

.UPDATE...
Updated for evening discussion.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Another round of thunderstorms and showers are already ongoing in
our northwest region, just north of I-20 and west of I-55, and
will continue to move south in the next couple of hours. Gusty
winds and localized flooding will once again be a concern. An
increase to the POPs over the entire region for the next few hours
have been made, otherwise the rest of the forecast hasn't
changed. /12/

Prior discussion below:

Tonight through Monday afternoon

An upper level disturbance and a cold front will push southeast
through the forecast area over the next 24 hours. This will
maintain good rain chances across the forecast area from this
afternoon through at least Monday afternoon.

For the remainder of this afternoon through tonight, the disturbance,
coupled with instability from daytime heating in this moist airmass,
and marginal deep-layer wind shear over the CWA of around 30 knots,
will maintain the potential for some severe storms this afternoon
and evening, especially in the north along the Highway 82 corridor.
Storms that indeed reach severe limits will be capable of producing
damaging wind gusts, as well as hail. Frequent lightning and
heavy downpours can be expected with any storms.

Also, an outflow boundary, noted on radar dropping southeast across
Central Arkansas behind a complex of storms moving east across far
North Mississippi, could spark storms across the northern third of
the CWA late this afternoon, that could drop southeast into the
Jackson metro area and Interstate 20 corridor this evening.  The
past several runs of the HRRR have repeatedly eluded to this
scenario. Thus, I'll keep some rain chances in the forecast for much
of the forecast area through at least the first half of the tonight
period.  Otherwise, look for partly to most cloudy skies tonight as
lows fall into the 70s.

The aforementioned cold front will begin making its run on the
northwest portion of the forecast area as day breaks on Monday.
Through the course of the day, shower and thunderstorm activity
along and ahead of it will overspread the CWA.  Once again, with the
moderately unstable airmass over the region and forcing along the
front itself, could result in the some isolated severe storms across
the CWA during the course of the day Monday.  Again, damaging wind
gusts will be the primary concern, with hail possible to a lesser
extent.

However, and perhaps of a larger concern, with precipitable H2O
values around the 2 inch mark on Monday, in addition to the general
west to east orientation of the front as it drops south through the
CWA during the course of the day, heavy rainfall rates could result
in localized flash flooding across the CWA.  This will especially be
the case if slow-moving convection, producing high rainfall rates,
trains across the same locales.  Soils across a good portion of the
CWA are already saturated from recent heavy rainfall that developed
across the CWA at the end of last week.  Thus, any additional heavy
rainfall amounts could further increase flash flooding potential
across the area.  As a result, I've introduce a "Limited" threat for
flooding across the CWA for Monday.

Surface winds will become northerly behind the front with slightly
drier air beginning to seep into the region.  High pressure will
slowly build into northern portions of the CWA late in the day, with
rain chances gradually coming to an end across the north in its
wake. /19/

Monday night through the week...

By Monday evening, the front should be across the southern portions
of my CWA. Storms will likely be ongoing around the front, some of
which could be strong to severe at times. Given forecast PW levels
around 2.0-2.1 inches(nearing daily highs for June 19th), this could
lead to some locally heavy rainfall and localized flooding issues.
The front should eventually wash out by early Tuesday. Some drier
air may be possible generally along and north of the Natchez Trace
behind this front, which would drop PW values to around an inch.
However, no substantial dry air is expected. Dewpoints will drop to
the mid to upper 60s rather than the lower 70s.

The remainder of the long term completely hinges on what will occur
with the likely tropical system in the Gulf of Mexico. Currently,
the National Hurricane Center gives this a high likelihood of
developing into a tropical system within 48 hours. Confidence is
good that it will track into the Gulf but after this, models
continue to disagree. Some models linger the system just offshore of
the Texas to Mississippi coasts through Wednesday before the
developing ridge across the Atlantic pushes east across the
Southeast and causes the system to move inland to our west somewhere
within a weakness. Other models bring it ashore quicker. It is
simply too early to know what will occur with this system. Today's
model runs mostly take it over our area and to our west, and not
east across Florida as the ridge pushes it further to the west. If
this occurs, drier air will not infiltrate our region. Instead, more
moisture(PW values nearing 2-2.7 inches for locations in the central
and eastern part of the state) will actually move in from the Gulf
as well as higher chances for rain. The official forecast for this
afternoon will include at least chance POPs for much of the mid to
latter parts of the week into the weekend. By the weekend, another
front looks to move through the region which will continue our
higher rain chances. Temperatures this week will remain the 80s as
rain and cloud cover should limit highs getting too much warmer and
overnight lows will remain mild in the lower to mid 70s. /28/

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z TAF discussion:
The proximity of a cold front will keep scattered to numerous
showers and thunderstorms in the forecast through the period. With
the inclement weather, mostly MVFR conditions will prevail.
Periodic IFR conditions will exist where convection manages to
impact a TAF location, but for the most part these will be
brief./26/
