DCWhat 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 Feb 7, 9:14 AM CST, 2 hours 27 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 7, 9:14 AM CST, 2 hours 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Jackson MS 914 AM CST Tue Feb 7 2017 ...SEVERE WEATHER EXPECTED TODAY... .UPDATE... Updated for morning discussion. && .DISCUSSION... Tornado Watch 26 has been issued for roughly the I-20 corridor southward in MS and portions of central LA through 20Z. Morning water vapor imagery reveals a shortwave swinging into the Lower MS Valley promoting increasing upper divergence. This has helped spark off a NNE/SSW oriented band of convection shifting eastward across central and southern portions of the CWA this morning. Through much of the morning, this convection has remained below severe thresholds and has been increasingly elevated with northward extent. However, convection is becoming increasingly vigorous over southern portions of the area. The surface front remains well back to the west across the Red River Valley, so scattered convection is expected to continue to develop and move northeastward across especially the southeast half through the remainder of the morning and early afternoon as the shortwave pushes across the region. The shortwave is expected to push past the area this afternoon, so we're thinking the severe threat will come to a pretty quick conclusion by around mid afternoon. In terms of hazards, all modes of severe weather remain possible. Our 12Z sounding sampled a quite impressive 7.8 C/km mid level lapse rate, so large hail might be the stand out threat of the day. The better surface based instability is expected to hang over the south and western portions of the area around the pool of mid 60s+ dewpoints. With a ~40 kt low level jet axis sliding across the area through the day, there will be damaging wind gust potential with convection that can become surface based. In addition, effective SRH in the 300-400 m2/s2 range indicates the potential for tornadoes, particularly along and south of the I-20 corridor, where storms are more likely to be surface based. The severe threat over the Delta may remain more limited due to a lack of convective development, and things may be more limited over the north central/northeast part of the area due to lesser low level instability, though more impressive mid level lapse rates would still portend a hail thread. We will continue to make incremental forecast updates to adjust to current trends, but no significant changes are planned at this time. /DL/ Relevant portions of the prior discussion below: Through tonight... Storms look to clear out by late afternoon/early evening as the upper level trough swings over the region. Clearing skies should even occur from west to east by late day. There might be some lingering very light rain in the eastern part of the state into the early evening but the remainder of tonight should be dry. The actual cold front won't make it into the region until later in the week, which means that cooler weather won't move in right away. Overnight lows tonight will only be in the lower 60s with some mid to upper 50s possible in the Highway 82 corridor. Dewpoints will still remain in the 50s and 60s so "muggy" conditions will continue, likely leading to some fog potential for tonight. Dense fog is likely going to be a concern, especially in locations that saw a good bit of rain today. /28/ Wednesday through Monday On Wednesday into Wednesday night there will be low end chances of rain over the east half for the period. The showers will exit the region by early Thursday. The cold front will finally move through the region on late Wednesday night into Thursday. Pwats will be less than 0.50 inch for any rain to develop ahead of the front for Thursday. In the wake of the front we will have a brief cool down before southerly return flow brings the forecast area back into a warming trend as we move into the weekend. Daily highs will push back into the mild 70s over the weekend. Upper ridging will build back over the region over the weekend in response to a closed upper low over the southwest Conus. This will bring back more chances of rain for the weekend as pwats to back to around one inch. Rain chances will continue into Monday as another cold front passes through the forecast area. Drier conditions will come back for Monday night. Looking ahead the models and their ensembles show the closed low over the southwest Conus will phase in with northern stream upper trough pushing into the Lower Mississippi Valley at the middle of next week as our next storm system./17/ && .AVIATION... 12Z TAF discussion: MVFR ceilings are occurring this morning with a couple of sites still at VFR. Showers and a few thunderstorms are beginning to develop this morning across the area. These will only increase in coverage and intensity through the day. The strongest storms look to occur from generally I-55 and east, which would impact KGWO/KGTR/KJAN/KHKS/KMEI/KHBG through about 23z. Some of these storms will be severe with gusty winds and hail being the main concern. MVFR ceilings at best will occur during the day. Some VFR ceilings may return late this afternoon before more low clouds and potential for fog(including dense fog) occurs late tonight. /28/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
