Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Memphis TN
406 PM CDT Wed Aug 30 2017

.DISCUSSION...

...Potentially Life Threatening Flash Flood Event Anticipated
Across the Mid South Thursday into Thursday Night...

Tropical Storm Harvey is moving slowly north-northeast across
western Louisiana this afternoon. This system will continue to
move towards and across the Mid South tomorrow through Friday.
This system will likely bring a variety of weather hazards to the
Mid South including potentially life threatening flash floods,
strong winds, and severe weather.

Harvey will likely transition from a tropical system to an
extratropical cyclone as it traverses across the forecast region.
This should occur as the tropical feature begins to interact with
the westerlies further north as strong surface high pressure
builds south across the Great Lakes. As this occurs, the
extratropical cyclone should actually deepen as it crosses our
region. In addition, isallobaric pressure differences should
become enhanced as the surface cyclone deepens. This should allow
for a developing baroclinic zone to strengthen from east Arkansas
and northwest Mississippi northeastward across much of west
Tennessee. This should provide a focus for excessive rainfall with
life threatening flash flooding possible. Rainfall totals along
this axis are likely to range from 4 to 8 inches, with a few
locations exceeding 1 foot. This area includes areas from the
Memphis Metropolitan Area northeastward across Jackson, Tennessee,
to Paris, Tennessee. Conditions will likely become dangerous
across these areas where the greatest rainfall totals occur.
Anticipate widespread flash flooding and local rivers and creeks
quickly rising out of their banks.

In addition, the enhanced isallobaric pressure differences will
result in strong winds developing by early Thursday morning and
persisting through Friday morning. Sustained winds during this
period will likely range from 25 to 35 mph, with frequent gusts in
excess of 45 mph. There may be some gusts in excess of 50 mph as
the extratropical cyclone advances across west Tennessee. This
will likely lead to a few downed trees and power lines along with
scattered power outages.

The next threat associated with Harvey will be the potential for
severe thunderstorms across the eastern half of the region. A
Slight Risk for Severe Thunderstorms now exists from late tonight
through Thursday night across northeast Mississippi into southern
west Tennessee near the Tennessee River. A Marginal Risk for
Severe Thunderstorms exist across the remainder of northwest
Mississippi and west Tennessee. The primary risk will be for fast
moving short-lived tornadoes and localized wind damage.

Rainfall will gradually end from southwest to northeast on Friday
but the damage will be done as the remnants of Harvey lift off to
the northeast. High pressure will build in behind Harvey with a
return to dry and seasonably cool weather into the weekend.

Dry weather will continue into early next week before a strong
northern stream shortwave drops south and pushes a cold front into
the area. Another tropical system near the upper Texas coast may
spread enhanced moisture northward into our region ahead of the
front. Showers and thunderstorms will again be possible with the
frontal passage. Below normal temperatures should continue through
much of the extended forecast period.
